    So very fast drop for a paddle ride, nice to watch from the second scene perspective how large scale engineering works, as it gets clearly more a stable drop with the help of the jet than it would be on a paddling attempt.

    I'm having trouble understanding the video. At 1:23 the subtitles says John Mel (his son, i assume) riding a big wave via tow in jet ski. Confused about exactly what's what, here. Which is which and where is who.

    @orpaztron Před 3 lety +4

    Respect for the courage but I do not like the whole concept of towing. I know I'm in the minority here but a wave that can not be caught in paddling is not meant for surfing. The towing drives young people who risk their lives for social likes. It's quite far from the essence of surfing and has become like a circus freak show.

    • @johntuttle9544
      @johntuttle9544 Před 3 lety +5

      You know, some old school Hawaiian could be sitting there and say I don't think boards with fins is really surfing, I mean you don't learn how to use your feet or balance or anything, never mind the offspring of the colonists appropriating your culture. Guess it's just a matter of perspective you old fart, where would we be with anything if we didn't adapt and try something more?

    George Clooney? Oh shit that's right he did that movie "perfect storm" for a second there I was going say no way there must be some kind of mistake.
    OMG they should get Peter Mel to play George Clooney at his Clooneyest -yes that is a word past partical marcupial progressive conjunction junction what's you're function.
    I can see the title to this new block buster ---
    "When push comes to shove Real Men Push Back!"
    The real life story of Hollywood's "rippa" George Clooney
    or
    Maverick's -"critical race theory says what?"
    or
    B L M -Beyond Lunacy....Maverick's - "I got your BLM right here, baby!"
    I love progress we've sure come a long ways since - "in Gods Hands"

    The Bass Player - "..If all the Yippies cut off all their hair..I don't care I DON'T CARE"
    R.I.P. James Marshall Hendrix
    Still kill'n it Peter Mel - Whatever the size of that wave was in my humble opinion when talking about MFCold water like Maverick's you should add another 10 -15 feet to the wave.
    Nothing tests like the cold. Modern day Vikings.
