Boaties Love #1

I found theses photos when looking through my old computer. Around 3 years ago Dave Delroy-Carr and myself had a mental run of waves in Margaret River. We towed this joint for 6 days straight by ourselves. On the last day of the swell we had two waves filmed each, stay tuned for footage. It looks perfect, but once you got out there and up close to it you could see that it was far from easy. You had to fade around some steps and then pull up into the unpredictable hollow section. Think the Box without an option to paddle into it. On the day of these photos, I hit the bottom really badly and thought I had broken my leg. Nothing was broken, but I had trouble walking for a few days. The joint was mental, however after some of the cans we had out there a fat leg was a small price to pay....

Shoulder hopping on a smaller one.

My legs are tweaked and bent anyway, this is the swelling hours after impact.

Stay tuned to the TOKEN VICTORIAN over the next few days for some HD water photos and land footage from this semi secret slab...
