Kayak Channel, Tacen, Slovenia

Slalom White-water Stadium Tacen – Slovenia (near the capital Ljubljana)
Length: 150m;
Difficulty level: III/IV





This is really nice kayak channel, starting with nice drop with massive water giving you alot of fun just at beggining.



Generally course has two playspots - one is upper hole which at normal water level is very shallow i even managed to make there phoenix monkey with tripple rock bonus! You can hit at initiation, finish of pirouette and landing, which hurts a bit. It has good eddy on left side and right shoulder pushing you to middle, hole is not orthogonal to the mainflow which makes it a bit rough and hard to set up. At higher water it gets quite flushy.


And the second playspot - which is wave/hole or wave depends on water level. On the maximum water level you can get there really nice wave which is perfect for fun, but unfortunatly it's super hard to use eddies on the sides after you flush.


When the water is normal/over normal then it's a wave/hole which can be sometimes a bit shallow but advantage of it is that you can use both eddies. It's pretty good for playing.



Tacen is surely worthly place to visit, thought the best fun you can get when it's maximum water, and in my opinion normal water is a bit too low so look for higher water and pack your equipment!
