Greg,



I don't know what hurts more. Actually i do, the money lost... Been there but not to that extent.


That was incredible footage, reminds me of my wipeout the first few months i started kayaking. And everytime i launch i do the prelaunch check list.

I have been there waayyy tooo many times.... You are right, with "familiarity breeds contempt".


Amazing Video, thanks for sharing.


brutal just brutal

Man you really wanted to go fishing. You're a better than then I am. I would have never messed with that surf with as strong as it was.

Here is one from a few years and kayaks ago, when the only electronics I had was an aerator powered with a AA battery. This was one the many T's I caught that summer.



Then there was a recent tug of war with a Homeguard...



And some good calico fishing down at Green Tanks

Greg...thanks for posting that. What an eye opener.

You've answered 2 questions I've been wondering for years:

1. What is the greatest number of waves ever taken to the chest on a launch.

2. What is the greatest number of times I'd say "Awww sh!t!" while watching a video. This one just surpassed my attempt at watching the "2 girls, 1 cup." video.

The surf was not that bad by itself (until I returned later in the afternoon), but the short intervals made for a long gauntlet. The video you are about to see is performed by an untrained nonprofessional, don't try this at home. The duration of the onslaught was about 40 minutes total.

i take it you didnt fish that day?

thats why i paddle like hell. even in the ankle slappers. less time in the wash = less chance to flip and break more rods. yes.. more.

Long funny story about getting this shot but the short answer is, when chasing big game in Baja for my guided trips we always use support/safety boats and this photo was taken by Alonso my pangero. This photo has appeared in magazines all over the world.

Jim, that is an AWESOME action shot there.
