BV's new play park?

[mgloeck]

Anyone have much info on the BV play park what the new features are like???

Here is the update:

They were going to build 3 spots this spring. Due to unseasonably higher water they were only able to build one. HOWEVER: This one feature is shaping up to be sweet. At low flows it is already shaping up into a great looking feature. This new feature has a different design compared to all of the other playpark drops (It is not a horseshoe design). Some new theories went into the design, and it looks like this tree will bear a bad ass fruit because the low flow is already supporting these new theories.

I played in it the other day at 300CFS, and spins and clean spins were about all you could do. It is still a little to shallow for anything else. I think it will be good to go at about 500 or 600. I will post more as it comes up.

its going to be better than the riverdale wave.

just kidding but whomever designed the riverdale wave should start building those in colorado.

NEW UPDATE:

The new feature is getting better with more water. It was at 400CFS tonight and a group of us had a lot of fun. You can get vertical now, but it is still touchy with hitting the rock. It is a POWERFUL hole, but still easy to get out of it off of the shoulders. I am very optimistic about this thing standing up into a sweet wave/hole feature. Only time will tell......

The upstream hole is also in!

Just got out and I have to say that I think they may have created a very good spot - it is still a bit low (hittin bottom a bit) but with 150cfs or so more it looks like it will be great.

The upper spot is good to go. Not hittin bottom much at all -

Which hole is the new one, upstream or down? Did they tweak the old one at all?

[RDNEK]

Downstream is the new one - the upper hole has not been tweaked at all - it didn't need a tweakin.
