Title: where are these waves???
Post by: Sean on August 02, 2009, 12:23:24 AM

I was watching a video that "Paddler Adam" sent to me and it has some waves/holes on the Ottawa that I don't recognize.  Where are

1) Puppy Chow??  (looks nice wave/hole!)
2) Brain Douche??  (looks like a pourover)
3) Big Kahuna??  (looks HUGE!!)

Thanks!

Sean

Yeah Sean...

Puppy Chow is Ken Whiting's name for a wave/hole in Dog's leg, Brain Douche is the eddyline/whirlpool area below Butcher's knife, and Kahuna is a wave that appears in Coliseum at medium-high levels, I believe. So you've been to all of those places already! Cheers...
