One could go into a mall in Kansas and ask a teenager "What is a surfer looking for?, and the answer will always be, "The perfect wave"

Was it my imagination or did the SUP guys generally look better than the proners out there?

Not your imagination, in the pocket and cleanest barrels by far.

Yeah, but the SUP guy (Kai) looked the best of the proners too. He's the guy on the yellow (what else) board in the first part of the video.

This is my favorite big wave video to date!!! The music rocks, Kai ripping, wavesailling, kiting, wipeouts, and Bethany toeing in. I'm saving this one.
It's not overhead to me!
8'8" L-41 ST and a whole pile of boards I rarely use.

In my opinion the Windsurfers and Robby(my hero) got the best "organic" rides BY FAR. They are in early and going huge and seem to have a lower beat down percentage.

I'm surprised that Niccolo's kite crash wasn't in that vid, it was pretty awesome, so here it is right here.
He's got the surfer's lingoisms and sound effects down cold, he's a riot to listen to.


And in that first clip, that's Bethany getting towed in, and I'm pretty sure that's Kai who went back out windsurfing when the wind picked up, he's on a yellow board (of course) with at Naish yellow sail, with a silver logo, and a black top.
It takes a quiver to do that.

The windsurfers were dominating.

not enthused about the Kai PR machine....but he was a total gladiator here !!! Think the windsurfers were the winners though

Windsurfers looked the most fun to me as well... the late re-entries to backside air where kinda sick.,,then sup.  I think kai rips. 

To bad chuck wasn't out on his skiis.  I haven't scene him out in a while.

To my eye they definitely looked to have more control than the kitesurfers.
