Keep in mind that when those first waves were shot most people were still riding kiteboards or whatever their last fad was.

To be dropped in on by a huge board and a bloke with a paddle was quite a novelty, I was still riding my Longboard in conditions like this back then and was trying to catch the same waves to ride behind guys on these new and crazy boards to get as close a look as possible.

Sick footage Phil. I wonder how many people understand the relevance of the song while you were riding Annie???

G'day CMC
When you look at the real footage before I cut it I was on the wave long before the guys on the Malibu started paddling so in a nut shell the Mals were snaking me because I was out wide. Anyway it was a fun day riding Annie but bulk hard to turn her. (yes good choice in songs hay CMC )

G'day Dogman
I was so keen to go to Noosa & have a SUP session with you Dogman. I phoned the organizers hoping they'ed run the SUP comp in 1 or 2 day but unfortunatley not. can't affored a week stay at Noosa this year as I just took 3 weeks of the beach to work at the Quiksilver PRO. Dogman stay tuned for my next SUP DVD called Mad Wax a Fijian Adventure. I was in Fiji last year got it pumping on the short board but left the SUP at home this year the SUP's comming with me.

What does your new girlfriend think about your old girlfriend?

Not too sure about the sunglasses, were Annie's eyes hard to draw. I'm guessing you probably got the other proportions right though. The Annie I know had proportions like that also. http://www.01iv3r.com/tagged/Annie_Sprinkle

Great video, thanks for posting it.

Yep Annie was from Swansea Heads & a good sort & a real good sport so for my big SUP I thought needed some big talk & like her that board gave me a lot of fun. I put the suunnies on her to stop her from starng at me
