Sixx? Big-Benni’s Keep an eye on the gauges and hope to get a Chatty update for ya soon!
Category: RRP- Benihanas
Benni’s is a fun wave with side curb hits. Harder to get on because you have to skim in but is a blast to surf. The wave comes in at 220cf (bottom of the pfd signs on the walls) and has never blown out even in the 1,000+cfs. Benni’s is a good alternative spot when Sixx is packed and the flow is over 220cfs.
Chatfield increased from 450 cfs to 580 cfs today, Sunday, 6/4/23.
Benni’s is ripping good right now and will just get better! Sixx will most likely be out of play. LBK

Big Benni’s gets bigger.!!’ Tip to catch Big Benni’s : Try jumping off different spots on to Benihanas. Go from the farthest corner and suitcase drop/jump up on the wave with a bit of a lower stance to then roll down into the wave from the top of the stinger. Some people are having success […]
Chatfield Possibly 800cfs Release 5/19/2023
Per the water manager Brent Schantz: “The Reallocated storage pool of 20,600 AF should be full later today. At that point we will start matching outflow to inflow so the discharge through Chatfield may be 800+ cfs. I will send out an email when that occurs.” If this happens, Sixx will blow out at 600cfs […]
