those guys wear floatation vests in the hopes that they will surface someday after they bounce off the reef and drown. the water is about 5 feet deep
where they are falling. notice the water sucking off the reef and running downhill into the face of the waves?
it doesn't get any heavier.

That place is damn good and still pretty unknown. Best on a mid tide going high, eAst south east swell. Approach from the north is tough.

A joke?? The coordinates on google maps send me to Tijuana sloughs. Chopes is located at -17.867913,-149.252965.

Thanks for the big wave vid TW. In addition to the great content, the quality is superb. I just watched it a few times on my large monitor. Snagged a
frame of the last backside ride for my desktop.

Enjoyed it very much TW... but, these guys are just plain crazy!
The SAME boiling water that softens the potato hardens the egg. It's about what you are made of NOT the circumstance.
