The first thing you want to do to get the best Phil’s beat down is understand the water level and how the water is moving. Then, you need to enter the bay and paddle to the eddy below corner wave. After leaving the bay, find your way up the trail to the rapids put in. Once you are there, you have a couple of options, and this is where the fun begins.
Before putting in on the water you need to have a detailed plan in your head. If you are really feeling risky you can leave your paddle behind and do your best hand-paddling. When you made your decision, you’re already halfway there. Now all you have to do is the actual beat down.
When entering Phill’s Hole(on either side) the trick is to make sure it grabs you. Though right side will grab you almost every time to ensure success lean towards the hole (I recommend facing the bow down stream and leaning backwards for the best results). Once in the hole, it is in your control until it is not. If you really want to put on a show then lean up stream for the most intense fun window shading of your life.
