JJF pulling into a huge left, with Kelly claiming on the shoulder.


Justine Dupont. First she charges Mavericks, and now goes big at Jaws. Mad props.



Matt Rode at mean Waimea. Copped 4 stitches on this wipeout.

A little side step for madman Brad Domke..
He was spotted again yesterday being towed in at Jaws on his skimboard.

Here is some footage of 2016 ..

and let's not to forget his XXL nomination of 2015.

I admire the balls, and the fact that he went back for more, but the question that springs to mind is why? Why not give yourself a better chance on better equipment?
Yah, I don't get it either. You can't really surf mondo surf on a skimboard. More like semi-controlled chaos. But some guys like to challenge themselves more. His stuff at big Puerto was mind blowing.

Imagine what guys like Buzzy Trent and Greg Noll would be doing today.

Ya, unless you can set a rail edge, you're not going anywhere but straight at those speeds. All the arms waving to adjust balance or whatever looks a bit spastic. But yes, big ballz when you have an inflatable. Hell, I might even try that with a buoy tied to my back. This kind of stuff puts the tow-skis drivers and rescuers in more danger than the riders, IMO.
