10 out of 10 for the vid, many thanks for the link. How deep was the guy at 1:40 that was some charge!!

Didn't get a chance to catch the comp, but have seen it break. From the front (the cliff), as impressive as it is, the angle doesn't do it real justice. This shot however, shows just how freaking lucky those who are good/brave/crazy enough are to have it here

Dam, look at that face, like a highly polished moving marble sculpture, and probably just as heavy!

A bit heavier than the max at C-Street. The UK boys are coming out the closet as very butch surfers.

i am loving the reflection of his hand in the wave for some reason..
billyboy Feb 15, 2011 Rating: 1
it's not his hand , but the hand of surfers past reaching out the wave !

Another perfectly good reason to visit Ireland-even if it is just to watch!

Being a surfer from the North Atlantic gives the picture a true realism, so that I can almost smell it, taste it, but by God, I bet you had to be there for the Thunder.

great to see Ireland going off THIS HARD, and Gabe represent the North East of England so majestically... maybe this will finally score him that elusive place in Geordie shore we all know he's craving...! Credit to all involved, this session was clearly epic.

a bodyboarder could get lower than a -20 rating for 1 comment, oh wait, no he couldn't.

... he could if he could find a jet ski willing to tow him out back. But they normally refuse for fear of looking as ridiculous Mickey Rooney walking his chiwawa.

Heart in mouth stuff all afternoon, and I was only standing on dry land. Fair play to all in the water.

Hey Flowboards, I was. Stayed at the SurfMaroc camp. Were you there too? Which one of the cool folks I met are you?
spongerDK Feb 14, 2011 Rating: 1
Theres an evil middle section to that wave that could swallow a bus whole. Thats why I wont be trying to play anytime soon.
