This amazing slow motion video of the beauty that only surfers get to see , may make up for it.
Beautiful water photography.

Which pic is missing, Bill? Is it one from me? Post #?

Rich - thanks for the link to that video. Rather ominous soundtrack but so do many of those waves look too!

Did you catch the Sir David Attenborough narration?

Amazing what modern camera tech lets the rest of us see.

That 90-second ride reminds of a ride a friend had at Rincon, near Santa Barbara. He caught the wave at Rincon and rode it for so long he could barely stand on the board by the end. He made it past La Conchita, about 2.5 miles away and had to hitch a ride back to Rincon. He surfed all over the world and that was his best ride, ever. Right where he grew up.

I love windsurfing.

That’s awesome! I always thought this might be fun to try if I find myself in Texas at some point. These oil tanker generated waves just go on... and on... and on... for like... minutes.
