Sword ping!
Dang katanas... I wish we’d see one of these with a good European longsword ome of these days. Dang Hollywood movies have just polluted us with too many images of freakin’ katanas.
In a fight against a katana (or a chainsaw for that matter) I’d take a longsword any day.
The reason Dimple rock is called Dimple rock is that they found an aluminum canoe back in the late 60’s crushed under the rock that bore the name “dimples”
Two waters confluence there and Pinball rock sends you right into the melee.
Ha! I was wondering why they called it dimple rock. Looks more like a flat iron. If one rock don’t get you, the other one will.

Dimple rock is under cut by the current.
If you go in and its clean, you have a good chance of popping out (keep your feet and arms up and you wont get hung on the rocks) but if the water is high and theres a dead tree stuck down there, you get hung like a fly on fly paper
The high siding of the boat that dumps yo into the current and drags you into the undercut is classic dimple rock.
Pinball rock/Ricochet rocks hand in this cant be understated
It just bits you in the worst place and then youre in the drink.
More like am anvil.

Depends on what you’ve trained with. As for me, I’ve fenced and done Toyama Ryu, so a katana is my blade of choice. That said, I’ve swung some damn fine European longswords!
