Oliver, Angie described the culprit as being about Jacko's size. I'm going out on a limb here in saying you don't get mistaken for Jacko too often.
Woody, You obviously, haven't witnessed me at dawn patrol, ripping the A-Frame bombs lately. These days I've become a bit of an air freak, I like to start off driving hard down the line, avoiding dropping in on randoms. When I'm in the clear, I line up for my bottom turn, digging the shaft deep into the face of the wave, to hopefully set up a couple of floaters, cutbacks and re-entries. Generally I prefer to finish my ride with a couple of helicopters - just to show off to the girls on the beach - who have nothing better to do. As I ride the whitewater to shore there's nothing better than practicing a couple of paddle spins to show off my dexterity.
These days I rarely go out without a gopro camera mounted to my helmet, I usually set it up so you can't get any idea on the size of the waves, that way I can exaggerate everything. When I'm done ripping for the day, I will head straight home, where I'll usually sit down for several hours and swear at my computer several times as I'm editing todays footage. I will then look up some obscure Jazz fusion tracks by Chick Corea and post my completed video on seabreeze just after dinner - so all the other old farts that sit on their computers all night have something interesting to see and get all flustered about.
While my wife is watching TV, I'll usually sneak out to my computer again and sit on seabreeze till around midnight either pressing refresh on my own post to see if the views/comments have increased or look for any topics with safety/pfd/association in the title so I can post inappropriate and negative comments. Generally it only takes a few days before my gopro post will get a yellow folder icon next to it and drops to the bottom of the list - it's then I know I have to repeat the whole process again.
