That didn't have anything to do with riptides or tides. That had to do with getting caught up on the inside of a gnarly set. He got beat up pretty good but that's BAU for surfer dudes. I don't think he was anywhere near drowning though...

He was fine. He wasn't even held under for multiple waves.

He could have held onto his board and rode in on whitewater after 1st one if he wanted.

Yeah, that's actually pretty common on head high plus days, happens to everyone. The key is to not kook out and miss the wave, especially taking the first wave of the set.

 

[cmanole]

Only kooks take the first wave...

He needs to learn how to duck. He should rent a copy of North Shore. Most accurate depiction of how to big wave surf ever made.

Anybody else really hoping to see a shark on the camera view come up and take a bite?

'Apocalypse Now' is the best surfing movie ever made. Best water skiing movie too.

But we used to watch North Shore like crazy back in the day.
