Bore

Has anybody tried riding a tidal bore on a surfski? There's a good one predicted on the Severn next week (and a similar one at a rather better time of day in September), and I was wondering how well my new ski might work - from the videos it doesn't look so big that getting wiped might be a problem, and I'm thinking the hull speed of the ski might help get through the rather flatter bits where the surfers all drop off - my assumption being that you can ride a smaller wave in a ski than on pretty much anything else.

Dude,
I would be all over that sucker !!!! I'm a surfer as well and anything I could use to catch one of those I would....Seen many videos of people surfing them and it looks awesome, I would do it in a Ski no problem. Just think, a 3-5 mile ride, sweet!

Good luck, get one of your Bro's to take a video of you for us so we can live the fantasy

Check out this wave at the mouth of the Amazon.
It goes for miles. Apart from the little fish that swim up the end of your pecker and lay their eggs it looks like fun.

There's a good one forecast in September. I'll be there, can't wait.
