it can be a bit dicey. you catch a wave on a 17'4 long board just trying to get the hell out of there without cleaning anyone up, then you get dickhead shortboarders that want to dart across in front of you when their paddling out.
i think-#uck, have you lost your mind mate, i'm on the queen mary and you want to paddle across in front of me
He looks pretty intent on catching the wave[}:)].Zoom lenses bring the background forward too so the paddler may not be as close to the pack as it looks.I recon he could probably get inside of the lot of em'.Good luck to him anyway>
That stinkeye would be nothing compared to what I get from the wife if I try to sneak in a second surf on the one day.
mmmm I'm with you nothing is more scary then the other half looking at you and yo knowing that there will be no getting in the tube that evening
