Wow - fantastic! Thanks for sharing. (It makes my session this morning seem pretty lame...) How big were those waves? You must have a better GoPro than mine - my GoPro makes my waves look small

Unfortunately my go pro does this too..distorts the wave size by flattening them out..i think it's due to rounded lens...sets were well overhead..theres one shot on video (1.23min)were a surfer is at the top of the wave just about to go over and I've just started my bottom turn..u can see there's a bit of distance between us and he's looking pretty small on the top..gives you an.idea of perspective..

Good stuff Supmaori! Was fun to watch. Yeah video doesn't justify the steepness either. Sometimes the video of the wave behind can give a good idea on size.

Thanks Sm... really enjoyed that!
I was thinking that the vid looked great for a nose cam.
I think the long, workable waves made it better than the usual fare.

Nice mix of backside surfing as well, really showed you ripping some really good waves.

Great spot you have there

Thanks guys for the positive feedback..I'm stoked others think.it's worthy of a look..when I was deciding on the minion there was only 2 videos to view of casso..I watched them over and over again to see if I could get even close to his magic..but it really helped looking at his footwork etc..so hope these help someone in return..
