Freefall, bucked off, bounce once, bounce twice, then take it all on the head while thinking about what the hell is behind it.

unlike Ramon Navarro, this man lacks conviction. Gotta commit. For example, I know I'm committed to not ever being in the water when a set like that comes

That's absolutely horrifying. I've seen faces of death videos far less chilling.

Savage rag doll. I wonder if his board survived

Maybe he was going for the wipeout of the year award?

Well if that be the case he's really raised the bar .
We're not talking a deep water reef break here , the maelstrom waiting for him on the inside and perhaps the next few waves would be Tsunami like ! There's a photo somewhere that twiggy took that literally looked like a Tsunami surge .

im staying in kiddies corner bodysurfing- that is just plain scary-as stated wipeout bad enough, come up to what- as welly said wipeout of the year is gunna be real scary this year.

ahh ,looks like a new maneuver...the forward double cartwheel!

carpetman Tuesday, 5 May 2015 at 09:32 am new

I've been specialising in the forward cartwheel since I started surfing but I've still only ever managed a single.

Geez, the points must be off tap with this swell. Still can't believe the guys tackle Puerto this big. Even at 8ft its scary - so much water moving around and dodging close-outs. Apparently waves were washing through the shops on the main street at the height of this swell.

Mehhh...... Reminds me of just another day at west coast tassie.... ;)

DeXtrus Tuesday, 5 May 2015 at 11:28 am new

If that doesn't win wipeout of the year then the guy that does win it will have to die to take the title...
