surfing at habitat 67 with connor

Habitat 67 is the name of a standing wave in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Informally named for the adjacent Habitat 67 housing complex, it has become a popular destination for whitewater kayaking and river surfing. Habitat 67 is such a cool wave that is really fun and safe the only problem with this wave is that if you are to swim it can be supper hard to get back to the eddy. Once you surf you have to get out your boat and walk back up the bank to the get into the top eddy to then get back on to the wave. The wave is really retentive and is good for tricks like blunts back stabs and flat spins you can get some long rides on the wave which is sick. If you are ever in Montreal and want to have funs surfing go check out habitat 67. I went to this wave with the Keeners for are our road trip. We were there for about 4 hours and each person got about five or six rides in as there was around 17 of us keeners. We also had to take turns with the surfers which kind of sucked but oh well. Some of my rides were so good! Flat spins are so fun on this wave and blunts are easy to stick. It was such a good trip I would love to go back! Habitat 67 is the place to go.
