Ferry of Destruction by Max Culbreth
In the spirit of beat down Thursday, I asked Steven about the ferry move across center slot above one of the nastiest ledges on the river. I remembered a few people attempting what Steven called the "Ferry of Destruction" in a previous session two years ago so I figured I would try it. I asked a few of my fellow Keeners if they would attempt it and a few agreed under the condition that I would go first. I got into the eddy on the river right side and considered just taking the tongue on the right side but ultimately decided to go for the ferry. I made it all the way to the river left side but as soon as I hit the tongue it shot me right into the worst part of the hole. I got a beat down far worse than anything I had experienced in right side of phil's. I was completely disoriented as I tried to surf out of the sides without continuing to be window shaded. Eventually, my skirt imploded and I immediately jumped out of my boat and tried to push myself out of the hole just to get body recirculated moments later. I did a few laps out of my boat before being sent into a rock and then deeper than I've ever been. I remembered to decompress my ears as we had practiced earlier that day while swimming the pour over. I came up very far down stream hoping that someone had seen what had happened.
