straightening up is NEVER an option at sizey Chopes / Gnaraloo / Pipe etc - you will get smashed if you try that...if you are at those spots that option shouldnt even enter your mind.
the only safe option is to takeoff sideways and pull in- as crazy as that may seem at the time.
thats solid
i bet its like that over the next few weeks
as ive smash my leg and i'm going roots in the dent in the couch
