very useful. I think we would enjoy even random line analysis - strategy for scouting, reading and running whitewater lines

@@SethAshworth awesome, looking forward to it :)

A route I've done is to catch the eddy at river right, right next to the island, at the very top of the rapid, and then ferry out left facing upstream to pass just below Stadlers as you ride the large ridge wave above Phil's. Catching the eddy is actually easy albeit intimidating and the ferry is quite straightforward as the ridge wave surfs you across.

Very useful! Clear, simple advices. I liked that a lot. I want to run this rapid for the first time this year, so your advices will be very impoprtant to me!

Let me know how your first run goes. I guess I will try and putout more like this if people are into it!

Really like it as well. I remember watching keeners videos where I would see stuff on the ottawa and not even know where it is. Maybe you could do a few on the hidden cool moves and spots on the Ottawa.

my greatest achievement as a kid was probably tanking through Phils hole and not flipping, I was like 11 or 12

Very useful. Definitely do more! Thanks.

This was cool, I like the idea. I think a good idea for an educational video, would be the same basic thing you did here, but on a section of a river, what to look for , what to avoid and why, how to read the lines.

Yea it seems like this has been way more useful for people than I expected so I will definitely try and expand it.

I work for Esprit. Gotta say great tutorial. Very much enjoyed the watch. ;) you should do a video on Anvil!

Thank you for checking it out. Any thoughts on future lines you want to see?

How about how to negotiate funny water generally. Where the current is going every which way, and it's not obvious what to do. For example, Sweet's Falls on the Upper Gauley, West Virginia. (Clay Wright is familiar with it) I hit it and hope, and flip about half the time, having really no idea what's happening down there. In this case, you just roll, but I'm sure there are cases where you really want to stay upright.

Is this a class 4 river? Is this river feature class 4?

Some people say that but I’m not so sure. The line is one move, fairly straightforward. Admittedly you can get a bit thrashed in the hole but swimming their isn’t that bad/consequential. I guess you could say easy class 4 or class 3 consequences. Kind of depends on your scale. It’s hard to say.
