You guys must have had a ball out there. It was hard enough just trying to drive over the Westgate Bridge.

I know it's never a race but how did the 12'6 WOW perform compared with the longer boards? Great vid by the way

WOW smoked everybody although in fairness, Pete could probably take a boogie board out and still beat us all.
