Very strange run off we have been having.  Glenwood wave keeps on growing.

Wow that's pretty awesome. Wouldn't mind seeing some footage of how you get on the wave, starting out in an eddy by the camera?

Pretty easy entry, entry from an eddie (sp?).  Long board you can coast in from way back.  That squirt is a 6'7", 117litres of colume and i weight about 210.  So that board i paddle in skate style.

Man! You're KILLIN' it, skid!!! You make it look so easy! I recently discovered a standing river wave on the Delaware River. It's 70 miles from my house. Def need to go back w/an inflatable sup. Longboard was pretty much a fail. Was my first try though.

One could go into a mall in Kansas and ask a teenager "What is a surfer looking for?, and the answer will always be, "The perfect wave"

I am not that into it. I love that area. I use to paddle those rivers when I lived in the roaring fork valley in the early nineties. But the whole SUP in the rivers thing..... I just can't get excited about river sup. I should probably try it before I knock it but I need another sport like a hole in the head.

I haven't been to Glenwood Springs since I climbed Mt. Sopris in the seventies sometime. Looks like I need to go back and play in the water.

Definitely try it! I think you will be surprised.
