Rock-n-Roll (aka Almond Joy)
Quality:



Levels: 8-10 ft If it looks like a massive beatdown hole, it's too low
Location: Downstream of
the bridge in the far right channel
Getting There: Boat down
the Main Channel, past the bridge and into the right channel. Can
also be reached from Pleasant Surprise
by heading right below the first
set of islands.
Eddy service: Good
Skill Level: Expert at low water, Intermediate to Advanced at good levels
Description:
Also know as "Almond Joy," "the Half-James Wave," or "the
V-wave." At lower water, a scary pourover that will usually give up a few ends before you lose control, but will usually let you out the surfer left side. At a good
level, it's an ultra-fast and fun wave with a foampile, similar to a
miniature version
of Rock Island (hence the name Rock-n-Roll). Good for lefty
blunts, great for righty blunts and left spins and cleans.
