No I think it is more sun protection

Classic that his legs are locked like he still has the board on. Wishful thinking.

I think the board thought
it would be funny to 'ditch' him
and steal shoot instead
Am I right in guessing the last shot was 'omitted' due to shoreline gravelrash
the brown sandy water and light backwash gives it away
