No.
When you just paddle down a drop your boat moves downwards on top of the water's flow and you enter the stopper. When you boof your boat leaves the water at the lip of the drop and moves downwards with gravity but it also moves outwards thanks to your boof stroke, with the path of the boat being the third side of the triangle. This is why in the boof photo Tom's boat is not in any water at all but is in mid-air.
The two consequences of a successful boof are that:
(1) On landing you continue forward and away from the stopper, and
(2) Your boat changes colour.
rog:
And your gear changes different colour and make as well?
