No battery.

I've went back to get my phone and then went down to Single Fin. Not nearly as big down there as secrets. One of those guys is still out paddling for 25-30'ers.

Other guy gave up and started back to padang. I saw his last big hold down at the corner, he only had a second or two between hold downs

Those two guys were still being beaten 20 minutes after I left and returned with my phone.

There are lulls.

The other guy is proning in now. Good decision

Did you have a 3-wave holddown this morning cranked? Because you're speaking absolute gibberish.
Thanks 'boo. :-D-:

Oh god I spoke to soon, a ski has just towed someone into, imho, the biggest wave ever ridden at Ulus.

All the way from near the bomie and around the corner. Fifty people, including me, cheering him all the way.

Wooooooofcukinghoooooooooo!!!!!!!

If you want to negotiate for a pic Steve I can ask a pro here.

The ski is going back around for another go. Not so big, gets slammed, ski rider is good and rescues him from the sets behind but somehow loses him on the corner. Picks him up out of my sight and they charge out for another go

Faaaaaaaark!!!!!!!!!!

Ski launches him into another mega wave.A drone races out. Rider screams through 200m as big as the first one and pulls into a giant barrel, makes it for around 40m before it closes.

Rider caught by next wave, seems lose his board, ski gets him and his board.

Next wave just as big, pulls into a long barrel, gets out and kicks off

No need to spoil it with my scrappy pics

It's not supposed to be that good. Maybe later on the low with offshore.

I'll go down and look

Well as long as you report your findings in terms of nutritional measurements and incorrectly-used German philosophy terms I think we'll all be grateful for your detailed reporting.
