So Quebec has started of with a BANG, with the huge flooding that has been going on the dams are realeasing a TONE of water, which means that most of the big waves have come in, which is where the title detonator comes from . Being from NZ I have never experienced a big wave, and this was unreal, the pure, raw power of these things is incredible. Its super fast and out of control. So before my ferry glide out I asked Nick Troutman for some advice, all I got back was, Don't wait to get in control, cause you won't get it. With that I set of for an epic big water ferry glide to catch the biggest wave I have ever surfed, and after a few goes I managed to hold quite a long surf. Here are some pictures. (P. Tyler Fox)
Sunsets are beautiful, add a massive rapid...Stunning
Bouncing out of control!! YEAOOHH!!
Rapid above detonator, feeling pretty dwarfed
The day after this epic surf session we heading into the upper cyriac, very late and freaking out about the fact that the only beta we had was that it was going to be solid, continuous class 5, but shortly after we arrived we realised that it was going to be a goo chill day :)
My boat, ready for some action

So the Cyriac was a good warm up, as it is getting warming and the steeper creeks should be coming in sometime this week or next week. Keep the Flow!!!
