Re: Where did you surf today ?
The point was, we'd all seen the ski go by about 15 mins earlier, it came up from padang, and powered straight past Ulus at speed and disappeared past secrets heading towards the temple. WTF.
God knows what they did up there for 15 mins. I recall that I saw a crew getting ready to film up there really early. Maybe that was the original plan. Staying away from the paddlers.
But there were no paddlers, the only two out had shit beaten out of them by a mega set and retired. And the waves up there were probably too daunting to ride.
Whatever. The ski must have come up the backs of a huge set out of sight till it topped the biggest one. It just suddenly came into view, we barely had time to register what was happening when the rider sling shotted in, dropped the rope, and gave everyone a perspective of the real size of the wave.
That's it, I'm done now.

He only caught one wave, he didnt have it on when he started, so he must have changed into it at some stage during the ride. He did disappear out of sight around the corner so it must have been there.

Cnnnts fcccken Russian. It was just a stinger suit for sun protection.
Re: Where did you surf today ?
These russians eh! Just natural for them, big wave surfing is literally just a stroll down the catwalk.
Obviously this attention grabbing fashion advertising is going to be a big thing. Next it'll be casual wear and deck shoes. Is nothing sacrosanct any more?

Re: Where did you surf today ?
Im guessing he covers 3 kilometres on that wave?
Re: Where did you surf today ?
Pretty boring to be honest... just kinda outruns the pocket and surfs in the flats most the way.
