If someone is on a wave shooting down the line,and one of us is heading out,the person heading out will do a few gybes in the shallows till the waverider has past.
You usually only have to gybe around for 5 seconds til they pass.That way you dont wreck someones wave.
Nothing worse than picking off a nice set wave and someone,who could have waited 2 seconds, shoots straight out in front of you.

A bit of common sence and respect goes along way.

nice
we still manage to get in each others ways occasionally,


when your heading out and think,"yep I can shoot out in time before they get this far down the line" ,,,,but they get there faster than you thought they would.
A friendly wave and a "sorry mate for wrecking that wave for ya " on the beach afterwards over a coldie and its all good.



My pet hate is when someone sits on your tail and follows you right into the beach,
you run out of water to ride in, then they gybe 2 meters away from you while you have to stop and sit on the sand with your kite low over the beach till they turn and head out.
