Laugh at the brown water, floating logs, and other debris, but tell me you wouldn't be tempted. River surfing somewhere in Sweden.

No place to take a new board, some of those logs looked nasty.

Anyhoo, the vid said "during recent rains the river flooded", so this'd be considered all time in Sweden.

Thinking along the lines of .....if it always flowed ....fuck building a wave pool just buy the land around the river no big set up costs, no huge power bills and waves that change constantly
