About
Our speaker seekers Kristine and Tom have done it again: The June General Meeting will feature a presentation on "Chasing the Wave: Skookumchuck Magic."
Tucked away on British Columbia’s Sunshine Coast, Skookumchuck Narrows is one of the world's premier tidal rapids. Join Jenny Zhang, Warren Williamson, and Morris Ho as they share the raw reality of the Skook surfing experience. They will take you from the quiet forest hike to the edge of the roaring rapids, sharing the thrill of dropping into the wave, the chaos of big boils and whirlpools, and their scariest swimming stories. Finally, you'll get a practical roadmap to plan your own trip from the Bay Area. Learn everything you need to know about transportation, lodging, boat selection, and how to read the current table to plan a perfect Skook trip. Come get inspired before heading north!
Jenny and Morris are always on the move for a kayak experience. Sadly for us Bay Area locals, they moved out of the Bay Area but are still actively engaged. Warren is an experienced rough water sea kayaker and kayak designer from Anacortes WA. This must be worth your time! Look to join in what is likely to be a wild ride!
In addition, we’ll have paddle and event updates. Of course, we’ll spin the wheel on the multiple paddles during the last month for Paddler Planner of the Month (May and June).
Be sure to look for all the details and latest updates on Currents and the BASK Calendar. We look forward to seeing you on Zoom! (Log in to BASK website before clicking these links.)
