So I noticed that my line has changed in Last Sunshine.

 Yesterday I got out to actually look at the rapid and what could have caused this. I took some pictures and I will upload tonight, but from what I can tell, the slot has gotten narrower.
 
To me, it looked like the rock that is immediatly to the right of the rock that creates the chute/slide that we run, has moved downstream a foot or so. I could be wrong. Has anybody else noticed that the hydraulic at the bottom of LS is different? Have you noticed if the landingzone looks different?

I thought it felt narrow because of low water, but I could be wrong. Either way it was a pretty tight.

The landing does feel different . Either way, D Albright had great advice that worked well when followed on satarday's elf. Firm right stroke early on to get on top of the ramp followed by a left stroke aiming towards the rock near the landing. Now that's hot beta I can get off on.
