Atmosphere

Just be cool with the landowners adjacent to the provincial park or they will call the cops! Watch your head if you fall, water is shallow and rocky! Bring an epoxy board those rocks will wreck a glass board quickly.

General

Its fun when it goes off. It costs money and takes work to access but on rare occasions it can be worth it, especially if you are a longboarder and aren't afraid of shallow water and rocks
