levels. There is a large flat top rock hiding just under the water on your right as you land.If you boof out away from the pour-over you should land beyond it.I have seen people at lower flows break thier paddles on it,smash thier elbows,and saw one guy knock his shoulder out of the socket when he hit it with his elbow.I pitoned my Phat so hard it flattened the first 12in. of the bow, almost back to the grab loop.To get the desired result on this drop,start as far left at the top as possible,and grab the lip off the drop with your left blade and crash through the tube huckin out like you got pit-bulls nipping at your butt.Your boat should strike the water making a beautiful "BOOF"ing sound in a somewhat flat position.
