Jolgen Wave, Sjoa River

>> Friday, July 2, 2010

On the Sjoa play run there is a fast wave called Jolgen. Apparently to local knowledge the wave can be quite fickle. It seems to change drastically with changing water levels and spring melts, needless to say we have been blessed the past 10 days. The wave has been cooking. Nice foam pile, fast, steep with eddy service, if you make the eddy !


Test driving a Dagger Crazy 88 (6.2) a little small but super fast.

I had the priveldge of meeting Halvor Heggem. Halvor is a norwegian youngboater. The norwegian youngboater programe is an initiative of the Norwegian Paddling Asociation for youth between 13-19 years old. Coached by Tyler Curtis these groms are in very good hands. Having started boating at a young age (which was only a couple years ago) Halvor is ripping, superb technique and great guy to hang out with.
