| Will never forget this wave I caught at North Point, in the Margaret River area. I shouldn't even have been out there trying to surf a wave like that but I didn't know better at the time, I got into my first wave out there nice and early did a big backside bottom turn and just pointed down the line, when I looked back there was a barrel chasing me down and when it got to be I was so blown away I didn't know what to do, and just straightened out and rode the whitewash for a few seconds, looked back and thought holy shit did I just catch a wave that big and make it this far, haha, still one of the best waves I ever caught! | |
| Three weeks before the above said wave, me and a few friends were surfing for the first time at North Point, I tried catching the first wave in the set but didn't get it, turned around and there was a freakishly large wave coming towards me and I was caught inside, paddled as hard as I could and pushed through, relaxed a little to soon and felt myself getting sucked over the falls upside down, my leg caught on my board and when I hit felt my hip pull really hard, then ended up on the bottom, came up and bam the next one caught me, I made it out of there ok but it could have been a lot worse, not surfing due to the leg sucked!
Oh and one other experience that sucked was almost losing my eye after taking the nose of a surfboard in the eye, luckily it got me just above the eyeball and caught the bone in the corner where nose meets eye socket. I had a pretty good looking black eye for a while and the white of my eye was red with blood, but I got lucky and I can still see! |
