Riverdale Kayak Park - 2005 Review

In case you missed the new urban kayak park in Riverdale, here's this season's review:

The park was put in as a project that included the stabilization of a pipe that was crossing the river bed. Central Weber Sewer and Riverdale City along with the encouragement and support of many local boaters made the project happen.

The result? A surf wave that should make any playboater grin from ear to ear.

Here's what people had to say about the new park:

Riverdale rules!

Wow, I am so glad I don't have to drive 3+ Hours to enjoy some quality surf feature.

Kudos to the park innovators, this wave is as cool as the Kahuna; And hot chicks come to paddle it. What could be better? Ogden is fine by me!

Thanx again to all involved with this park feature! Is there any grass or places for spectators to sit in the future? not that it needs it, this wave rules!

I suck compared to the chicks at the riverdale wave man I keep seeing these girls up at the riverdale play/hole/wave they rock: I saw blunts. cartwheels, backstabs, and some serious surfing. Looks like Ogden is surf-city for the ladies! way to represent!

The Riverdale wave ran big from April through July this Summer.
