C-Dub Sessions- By David Silk

Out of all the waves on the Ottawa River, c-dub, also known as Corner Wave, has to be one of my favorites. Its a smaller wave in the middle of McKoys rapid, right above the big horseshoe hole and Babyface wave. Its super fast and green, and really hard to stick anything... and its one of the the most awesome waves. Even just surfing and spins are incredible on it, just because of how fast and smooth it is, but everything goes. Pan ams, airscrews, and helixes, and spins and roundhouses.. every single wave trick is just so fun to throw. Its a great spot to practice, because it forces you to land tricks perfectly, otherwise you'll flush right off, and then have to paddle hard to catch the small eddy and not flush down the rest of the rapid. And the best part is.. it's just a short paddle away from Keenerville. Me and my friends go all the time after dinner, or on weekends, to paddle there and theres rarely a big line.. its just surf after surf, and trick after trick. Its the wave I learned how to do a good hull to hull airscrew on, and have the most fun ever just carving.. Corner Wave is just amazing, and if you are ever on the Ottawa, you have to give it a try!
