thats pretty skillful how he landed back on the board and got his feet into the straps 
Good to see even the locals have bail outs....
You can still tell it's Brett destroying those waves.
Nice action shot Mastbender. How did that scenario play out? Looks like there was plenty of damage potential to that sparkling new kit there.
Cheers, Jens
I like Shot 1 where Kia Bates is left with a fully shredded wave to attempt the climb.
Been there. 
No doubt it was George (Mick Westra) who would have made that mess and at that moment would have been 200m further down the beach.
No one gouges deeper than George.
He's also way too fast for any cameraman to keep up with his pace.
Robbie Nash on the other hand wasn't so lucky, he had to take the walk of shame over the rocks.
Pre wash in.
He never quit using and uphaul, he uses it for this purpose pictured, and it seems to be a quicker way to get up and going again.
A trick used by some, but not many pros.
