The swell came in as forcast.
This is hard core......up to 30knt off shore, big waves moving very fast......that's what?.....50knts of wind up the face.... at the take off......not to mention below 3 degrees air temp!
These shots do not convey the speed, power & mass of water...the length of wall, it's something you can't fully appreciate unless yourv'e been under one!

Nice shots. Looks like a few people about to test their duck diving skills in shot 3. Ohhh the ice cream headache in 12.5 degree water temps - ouch!!!

More importantly, how do you get a SUP into a wave when it's 30 knots offshore without getting blown off the back? Mega late take off?
