    Anybody had any experience crossing the bar? obviously it should be done on a higher tide, also what about launching from kaiapoi at the bmx track any specific tide to do this at to head down river and cruise around?

    Like all bars you need to read the water especially surf it changes all the time, I would go out with some one who hs crossed it first to show you.

    As for the Kaiapoi river (BMX) track you need to come in before it is dead low a few tree roots under water, up at Kairakei there is a flat spot only 1m deep at igh tide follow the main part of river better still follow some one else out.
