Description

Fang is one of the biggest waves on the run. Most paddlers start the rapid on river right to miss a midriver hole (that at the right level offers some good surfing) and fade back to the center left of the river to enjoy the ride over the main wave at Fang and the curler behind it. Eddy out on river right to chill on the rocks or surf the main wave, which varies in quality from year to year. When its good, its really good.
