For someone who would have been more in tune with being in water, avoiding that riptide would have been real hard. So imagine for someone who wasn't as in tune with the water as she wished she could be?

No, this firetail got wisked away in the torrent and it was hard enough to keep a stable stance, let alone try to get out of it and it was painful.

During one of the chaotic spins brought about by the rip tide, she used her wings to twist herself into a more stable stance and initiated a Dragon Rush directly at the whateverwhalething.
