The problem with big Weirs is the phenomenal undercurrent. I know a good surfer who got into a load of trouble on the river Exe where he was ragdolled for about a minute before being spat out downstream. He couldn't paddle back to shore due to a dislocated shoulder and was pulled out by two other guys about 400m away from the weir.
