whoa...

That definately looks like a more consistent way to get your cheapies. It makes waiting for sets, trying be be core while looking out to sea straddling a board look lightweight.

But how fast can you spell quadriplegic?

Sure paddling in to chopes or mavericks might be heavy...but fcuk me..skimming between trees with no real way of abruptly changing course including increasing altitude...come on thats the heaviest thing ever !! What is heavier than this??

jeez I dunno, maybe being a citizen of South Sudan or Somalia? Or a Syrian refugee? A woman in an Islamic theocracy? A woman in the Congo?

It looks like a great adrenalin rush, the wing suit thing, but heavy? I woulda thought you would do it in order to feel light.

OK Nick...you got me... I wasn't thinking of tyrannical state leaders or genocide just watching plain old action sports and silly me...I just used some old surf vernacular..because this is a surf site...and used the word "heavy"..maybe Nick I should have used "Gnarly"...either way its fcuking dangerous and I take my hat of to Alexander for having a crack at it.

No apology required Nick...I said that with a hint of jest, a touch of sarcasm and just a few drop of sandal wood. But that probably didnt come through in my post either....but come on.. you must admit you have to have massive cags to do that for the first time.
