5/21 midmorning - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I agree go in facing forward... If you get picked up by a wave, and if your nose is dipping...... LEAN BACK...

Here is another oldie but goodie... Rastrev in his old FnD in mild Colonet surf...

Just an FYI, I don't endorse or encourage going in backwards. I do it because I
haven't mastered coming in forward. Even 27 years of surfing hasn't helped me
there.

I believe the key is timing.

I always liked this one.

I didn't capture the result since SOME of us are nice enough run to a friend's aid, rather than stand there snapping pics.
