Anyone considering riding the bore would do well to read this to start with, and understand the dangers of the river.

  • We here in Moncton,New-Brunswick,Canada are fortunate enough to have two tidal bores daily on our beloved Peticodiac River but i must say that's a nice bore.Nice to know there's fellow bore whores in the UK.

  • Thanks for the explanation Rodney

  • @GreenStreetPlayer

    The bore is the start of the incoming tide, so you can end up with a 12knot current following the wave, this is stronger at the edges, if you fall off it is sometimes possible to paddle back into the wave with the aid of the current...just like turbo guy!

  • Nice video Paul - gonna have to put this on my list to see someday! I like the Weir Green footage best...

  • like your videos Paul will keep a look out for you next time

  • At 2.43, has the guy towards the bottom of the screen got a turbo?

  • Nice capture - shame the weather wasn't great!
