I posted this video last week I don't think it worked!! I surfed this point last Monday which is rather fickle. The camera doesn't give the actual size any justice. Anyway a bit of fun and I hope you enjoy.
I haven't put it to music as I love the natural sound the gopro picks up.

Good stuff Div
Sounds like a "Super Hornet" on takeoff run. Thought it might have been somewhat larger than it looked....get a bit of perspective on one or two where you flick off and the cameras looking back down the line.

That was cool , how was that weird sound. The camera started to fog then cleared did you open it up to let it clear ?

Nice vid.

I think this kind of wizzling that we can hear may be some cavitation from the fins.
Check for very sharp trailing edges on your fins!

nice vid mate, the old gopro never does the size of the waves any justice

Have a look at this one Robdog.
Thanks for the encouragement Sparxs, Jarryd, Johnny and Piros.
I agree with Robdog we need more home videos. Not the ones your thinking of DJ!!

Thanks Div, really enjoyed that. Haven't had much luck with videos for some reason but yours worked a treat.
I like the natural sound track but have to disagree with the others as I think the whooshing is due to the speed of the board on the bigger waves
Also glad to see that I am not the only one who has a bit of a puff due to effort.

Loved that mate, especially the natural sounds for a change.
Is that a PSH Ripper, if so what size?

Thanks ET and Bigman. The board is a PSH Ripper 8'9". I lost the original fin so I replaced it with a Kym Thomson which surprisingly made the board faster and much looser. Div
