I'd treat him just like I do the Feeze! i'd give him the old "OUT-A-DA WAY DOPIE" then drop in on him next chance I get.............then we'd laugh about it over a few beers later on.

Y'could always bad-mouth him on forums & blogs (with vid evidence) so that he looses his sponsors & has to get a 'proper' job ....

Then he could sabotage your vid to protect his current situation.

Tell me, how come the vid doesn't seem to work?

This computer stuff is all too technical but here is another go.

Oh yeah! great clip, looks like they were just having fun and sharing waves, perfect for a bit of banter

Apologise for the other ten times you probably dropped in on him. I's a 1ft wave who cares??? Everytime I go out I have people with neck conditions that drop in on me. It was the first lesson I learned from my uncle in 1967. I don't think anybody except a few old timers like myself do it anymore but I use where the wave is breaking not 10 metres onto the flat face which seems like what the longboarder and most beginners do. I'll only call out if its over 3 ft or a really great little wave and the same person keeps repeatedly doing it. If you look carefully LH had to fade across the front of the longboarder to stay on the wave. The longboarder's line is going completely the wrong way if he wanted to stay on that wave anyway.

Apologise to him for affecting his ride, then retire from surfing and spend the rest of your life with the knowledge that you and god shared an intimate space in time whilst bragging to everyone that you ever share a conversation with that you and the almighty LH once caught a 15ft party-wave together...
