“Hood River is an epic mountainous beauty and an adventurer’s playground for hiking, mountain biking, skiing, kiting, kayaking and paragliding all in the same day. And there are always so many stoked people on the water!”

Sensi Graves, Liquid Force pro rider

 

The Lure

The main spot in Hood River itself is the sandbar where you’ll find choppy conditions further out with flat water close in near shore as well as the infamous Hood River slider park. There’s usually plenty of space to launch and land but this can change depending on the water level. Although gusty at times on the inside, it’s consistently windy throughout the season as the wind is funneled down the river through the Columbia River Gorge.
