Awesome looking shots Josha. Please can you clearly name the surfers?I reckon they deserve a shout!

Yeah, surfing has been so dominated by kids doing neat tricks on potato-chips, when some surfing like this hits the scene its like that stuff goes out the window. I'd rather be on a gun any day surfing some juice than on the same old 5'9" trying to outdo everyone else on a packed trick wave. It's like that stuff isn't even real compared to this.

looks like the exact same board from the pic of the day a few days ago from the same swell. different rider tho. communal board for those who have shattered the rest of their sticks?

I'd like to see the video to this ride, if there was one. Nice looking pic though.

Gavo - Thank you. The video was spectacular. It looked like the guy in the pic, during the video, was suspended in air - with barely any of the board in the water. Truly amazing.

Wow, just looking at that is frightening! Can only begin to imagine how stoked he is going to be when he makes the channel...

There's a video of that ride. It's the last segment (right after the SUP wipeout in the tube): http://www.surfline.com/surflinetv/primetime/tavarua-dreaming-part-one_57636
