So we went to the chute again on the Easter Weekend... I had to fetch my seat from a dodgy place in Germiston in the morning, so we only left at about lunchtime. However, we still managed to get to the hole in time for Neil to do a few cartwheels, me to paddle like a girl, and also to see some great boobs... We walked back up in the dusk, chatting about pornography at the top of our voices, until we saw a wedding party on the lawn at Stonehenge waiting for the bride... oops.
We squatted (no, "camped for free", not actually squatted) at the 24hr MTB race, which was a little like trying to get some sleep at Oppikoppi, but not too bad. We watched a bit of Cricket at Finnegans, which sucked. At least the burgers were good.
The next day the hole was a little deserted, with only Ernie and Blake joining us for half an hour or so.... and definitely no fantastic boobs. The level was also a bit lower making it slightly more shitty to get in, and making the wave a little smaller but slightly more retentive. Neil did some good cartwheels and I did a few amazing Atomic-Turtles (like a phonics tortis but bigger and better). We took lots of footage to help the learning curve, and managed to almost amazingly cock up transferring a peli-case from the rock to the bank...
Oh, and there was also a commercial trip with a retarded kid - a little annoying but pretty funny (as always) to watch the clients swim the rapid...
We eventually (quite quickly actually) got too tired to paddle, and left for Jo'burg. The end.

I think I need to elaborate on the Atomic turtle. For those who haven't heard of a phonic tortis. What it is: you land up on your back deck, keep you head above water for about enough time to wink at the spectators on the bank. Looking at the spectators is very important, extra points for a nod or a "did you see that" expression.
Now a atomic turtle on the other hand on more like a back deck stall. I thought Dave was going for a dry roll his head out out for so long. If I was close enough we could have had a full on discussion about world events or the great boobs behind me. Hmmm, maybe that's why he kept his head out so long.
Hmmmm... I believe the"boobs" are a clever ploy to lure more Explorers boys to the river. Hope it works...
nah, if there were more people there it would make it a little awkward... At least with just the two of us we can look at one each without being too obvious...
