Boise’s River Park is one of the top artificial river surfing waves in the country. It was one of the first fully adjustable river waves in the U.S., and it provides a steep, fast, green wave on “Green Wave” days, and more of a wave/hole on “Wave/Hole” days. Usually the park follows an alternating schedule, but both days can still get you on your board.
The wave is fast, tall, and green, and supports small ocean-style boards and big maneuvers. A couple of nearby shops sell boards designed specifically for the Boise wave.
With big eddys on both sides and no hazards downstream, it’s a safe wave to surf, though it can certainly be busy.
Because the main wave is in a sub channel of the full river, it has a long season with surfable flows
