Must be summer. Good that the foam got mentioned. That stuff can smother.

That needs to come with a blood pressure warning.

I was right.

ww I was thinking the same thing: Remember the 5 BB'rs that drowned in the Netherlands? Also that whole setup from launch to recovery looked super sketchy and for surf that really didn't look that inviting (at least to me). Going out on a limb here ; was that a publicity stunt? What was the purpose of that? Not taking away from the talent, stoke factor, skill and fitness; and in 5/4 full suits and booties too, talk about noodle arms.

I need a drink after that.

Nope!

I have sat and watched multiple spots in the Orkney's just going off with easy paddle outs and beautiful weather. With NO surf shop on the entire island. sigh. One spot I was watching, which actually was a slab/reef but not some death type, had a pod of Orca's cruise by, and I thought about the wetsuit defecation thread...

I just had a panic attack . . .
