The only question is how did his big balls not weigh him down?

Not sure but it was the surfer. I changed it to a USA today story just in case something was funky with the link.

That’s the size of a damned high rise.

It originally asked how I wanted to complete the action, which isn't normal. I was too scared to click based on the url.
New link works fine.

I’ve seen this video a few times, always wondered if it was legit. Makes Bodhi look like an amateur.

How do you even get started on that?!
Scruffy wonders what his peak speed was on the way down.

A jet ski pulls them into the wave usually but even the jet ski drivers have to have some balls to get out into that stuff.

They have jet skis that tow you in to waves that big. They also pick you up if you fall if you are easily found. If you are caught in the white wash of those waves it can be nearly impossible to pick you up.

Did you see the video of that surfer Cotton eating it at that spot

Imagine if you fell off and had to hold your breath until the wave crashed. I don’t think I would make it

Probably somewhere between "this is fricking fun" and "oh shite"
I want to go to Kelly Slater's wave pool that he just sold and they are now taking national.
