If like me you are waiting for the waves and see hardly any posts here at the moment. I thought my little movie done on my pocket camera (without a tripod I may add) might cheer you up? I took it when the Starboard/Severne boys came, about Feb this year at....well those who know will recognise it, just. Roll on September......

impressive action - sick jumping - Koster is in a league of his own

-but the more i watch this video the more i realise that its just freestyle down the line - where are the rail turns ?

You know the Polakow / Mckercheresque / Stone style hard drive off the bottom to present the nose square to the lip technique - i reckon if he mixed in a few of those his act would be even more intimidating than it already is

Technically turns are alot easier than whats going down in this video - so it should only take Koster 5 minutes to work them out.

Many people said similar things about tony hawk back in the day - and where did that get him ?

While it is fun to try and use every effect in the menu when you first start doing videos -try and focus on simple titling and cuts in your future videos.

I think Koesters biggest opponent is / will be boredom. Given the level he is already at it's hard to see what he will do in 5 years to keep himself interested. I am guessing his next goal will be big wave sailing. Maybe chase hurricanes?

Nah, don't think he is quite Kelly Slater yet... and he doesn't seem to be getting bored.

Thanks for that, not sure wot he's like in big waves the vid was done on just an average day at this "Spot".
Er wot do you mean by "Tilting", I may only have a pocket camera, but I now have a tripod for this year and hope to improve the videos! Again roll on September......do get the odd day in UK....
