Ski benefits ... Hunted beomes hunter© 2009 - WPS/Joli

Putting aside all of their downsides when in the hands of kooks and dangerous broke-dicks, the advantages of surfing off a ski are plentiful: your visibility is improved and you're not just waiting for the wave to come to you. You're actually chasing down a kill, like a Serengeti lion hunting a meaty wildebeest. And when it's 6ft uncrowded Kirra shaping up as the kill it gets even plumper and sweeter.

amazing shots, but i agree with Nurno. The necessity for skis etc is usually (unless monster waves -which the lads at the XXL awards proved you dont always need skis for) negligible. I think ethically/morally and practically they are a non-essential piece of kit on this type of wave and people should think very carefully before using them, particualry those wiht the influence, and skill to prove the point. That said, beautiful photos (apart from the one with the ski).

On the subject of what a beautiful planet we live on, I know they're necessary at times and have advanced surfing into previously unridable territory (which makes for great photos and increased safety, but how does it really beenfit the majority of us), but does anyone else find jet ski surfing unethical in both a green sense and a soul sense? Good shots none-the-less.

Nice work fellas, love the last shot with all the sand particles sucking up in the back of the wave. Shot 2 is utter filth as well. Keep em coming.
