The fun1’s second run was the great
falls rock island, Tennessee. The lines we took were river left and
center called the spout. The left is a 24 footer, and the spout is
a 21 footer. It was half a gate spilling from the dam. It was me,
my dad Eric, clay Wright, and a junior named Mark. We eddied out right
above the waterfall. It was clay then mark then me then my dad Eric.
Everyone seemed to have a good line. The all leaned back at the lip.
But when I paddled off the lip I leaned forward and plugged it in
hard. It was a lot of fun. Then we climbed up to run the spout. It
was higher water than I have ever run it at. So it was a bit more
scary than before. Everyone boofed right except my dad Eric who boofed
left instead of right he landed flat hard but he was in a creek boat.
I went off but then I thought I was to far right so I slowed down
but right at the lip I stopped and got pulled right in dead center
and was getting worked in the hole for about 5-10 seconds. Then I
eventually I flushed out then rolled up. It was a awesome day on the
river.
