It takes a large tide to work and is still a bit of a mystery. \\u201cSometimes it can be head-high, other times, it\\u2019s nothing,\\u201d he says. &lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;iframe src=\\\"\\/\\/video.grindnetworks.com\\/embed\\/55116af0e5f490da20540287\\\" width=\\\"640\\\" height=\\\"360\\\" frameborder=\\\"0\\\" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;\\/iframe&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;According to the &lt;a href=\\\"http:\\/\\/www.tidalbore.info\\/\\\"&gt;Tidal Bore Research Society&lt;\\/a&gt;, as Cook Inlet, east of Anchorage, extends inland, it splits into the Turnagain Arm and the Knik Arm. The Turnagain Arm runs east\\/west and is 10 miles wide, narrowing to almost nothing over the course of 40 miles where it meets Twentymile River. Onlookers can check out the scene from the Seward Highway. &lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;Dickerson says he and his surfing partners like to park their car further up the Turnagain Arm, and float out towards the incoming bore and then surf back to their cars. \\u201cIt\\u2019s hard to imagine that many people get to surf that way,\\u201d he says. &amp;#8211; &lt;em&gt;Joe Carberry&lt;\\/em&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;All photos and video shot by Scott Dickerson.
