Colli
We started by scouting collisuem and then Steve-o said that we were swimming colli. my heart dropped and I started looking at the rapid in a whole new light. I was terrified, as we started to split up into groups I had no urge to swim it. We started to walk down to the edge of the river. The first group leaped into the river and with hoots and hollers they proceeded to swim down into the maw of the river. My group was up next, we started to one by one jump out into the river swimming towards the curler. As soon as we got swimming I realized that I was far behind the other swimmers and I was going much slower than them. I punched through the first curler and then I swam hard right but I did not swim far enough. I looked forward and saw the mouth of big Kahuna open up and swallow me. I heard the walla walla walla for about 10 seconds and was able to swim up to the top but then was shoved under again. I arose from the foamy depths and did not know were I was. I tried to swim but was completely gassed , I missed the eddy and realized I was in a bad place. I tried to swim right, my back missed the eddy and swam some of dogs leg. Luckily Adrian was able to get me before I swam any further.
I’m not that strong of a swimmer.
