Couple more shots here to help yous work out the size of the beast
This was the average ones .....im guessing this dude wins put him back deep at the bottom of da pocket in front of da white dragon froth and ill go he he he if your calling it 6to8foot

If thats your scale im cool with that, if thats your ceiling

This has been taken approx 1km away behind the curtin and on top of a 200foot vertical rope ladder cliff
200foot-180=20foot im thinking you know where this is..... well it ist there.

Da wave on the inside was 6 foot OK 3 FOOT , although I always believed kiters WOULD HAVE called that 20foot most impressed

Ps any shot from the water looks 20foot

Post your mostist so i can be a wave assessor to

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous "yes."

The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.

"Now," said the professor as the laughter subsided, "I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things ??? your family, your children, your health, your friends and your favorite passions ??? and if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.

"The pebbles are the other things that matter, like your job, your house and your car."

"The sand is everything else ??? the small stuff. If you put the sand into the jar first," he continued, "there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff you will never have room for the things that are important to you.

"Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your spouse out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal. Take care of the golf balls first ??? the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand."

One of the students raised her hand and enquired what the coffee represented. The professor smiled. "I'm glad you asked.

"It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend

How about all the people criticising the photos, put a photo of themselves up in similar conditions showing how they can kite "surf" the waves better.

The stage is yours

I dont know whats worse, KOTPs mate riding the flats or the nazare dudes scratching for the shoulder and claiming to be big wave surfers....
Both a bit embarrassing I think...



"claiming" !? never looks big when you film from height.

Maya Gabiera got mowed down, held down and dragged from the water unconscious then resuscitated on the beach after what the pundits reckon was the wipeout of the year.... looks like the same session
