Video thread

Congrats on the nee club Hiro! So cool to see kids getting into it and what an amazing place you have to paddle.

I remember when you started this thread. Must be the most successful thread in the history of this website!

Nope, I'm not. But we know each other.

Thank you for your kind words.

A fun little downwinder on Botany Bay ion this week's southerlies.

Wondering if anyone has tried taping some lightweight chainplates to their ski to use as anchor points for fishing line shrouds to stabilize a camera mast that's too flexible?

Those are fun moments not knowing if the breaker will take you out or not! Nice footage.

I love the footage from the stern mast. I know those waves are bigger than the look on film! Super fun.

Been out of action for awhile, great to get back on the water. Couple of clips from bow cam - great perspective! Second clip coming ashore at City Beach (Perth WA) minimal swells coming in compared to many days however what I thought was going to be a gentle run in with elegant step-out dismount ski-to-shoulder out of the water like a Mocke went bezerkers instead. Gully and lip of sand at water's edge turned my run into instant shore-break body slam. Lucky my NK wasn't broken on that shore.

Pretty amazing build is carbon monocoque, took it like a tank! I'm in pre-op mode with a meniscal tear to left knee. No guesses which body part took the first hit as I was spat out. Haha all good, no more damage anyway. Body under the boat at the end there is in about knee-deep water.

PS tried to embed my clip as those above but no go. What's the trick?

Outstanding, Watto! Good you and the ski made it out alive!

Awesome video watto! That makes surfski look so cool! It is cool of course but it does not always look it in our videos. Referring to my own vids too of course!

Love how the pilot keeps telling the stoker to stop paddling. That boat is so smooth.
Average speed at least 20 kph or 12.5 mph. Wow.

Awesome, stunning!!

Another banger from Boyan.

Surfing a beginner ski like a boss.
