barrelled!
Respect for pulling in, Roy!
What for that shi# ride u r a R's licker for sure.
Shut up, Guy, no one cares what you think.
Most regulars on this website, i.e. not you, would know that I love rarking up Roy at any chance but I gotta give credit where credit is due. Not many standups have the balls to pull into a closeout barrel. Most of them pull off and wait for the next one. Roy did it, so I gave him respect.
Thats BS man. 1 in 3 surf I probably spend just pulling into close outs.
Question Roy!
When you surf 4-5 foot of your board is almost always out of the water not being used for anything. Seems like a waste to me. Whats the logic?
Your premise that the part of the board which is out of the water is doing nothing is incorrect.
It serves at least three purposes.
By the way just because you pull into closeouts it doesn't follow that tubenet's statement that "Not many standups have the balls to pull into a closeout barrel" is therefore incorrect... after all you are only one person, not many... there's some logic for you.

What are they. I am quite happy for my "premise" to be proven wrong. I'm interested to its purpose. So there is no need to get your lawyer on.
come on Utah, give roy a break, I have... after endless mount ripples hes finally posted some video surfing some ok waves, going well too, and pulling in and getting a bit of travel before being shut down...
It aint slater, but it aint kookmeyer either

Depends on the closeout.

Firstly one needs to realise that planing craft ideally change the amount of wetted surface area used according to speed... more area when going slowly less when going faster. so, a surfboard which is intended to be used over a wide range of speeds needs to have a large area available and to reduce it as speed increases.
One could still argue that the nose area which is out of the water at higher speeds is useless at that time and is merely being carried along for use when the board slows down. Of course the area is being carried for use at slower speeds but it also serves other purposes even when out of the water.
One of these purposes is as a counter weight. Mass in the nose balances mass in the tail, making a well balanced board. The counter weight aspect is also used for control and drive, it gives motive power to the nose of the board which can be used to drop the board down the face ( when trimming for example) when forward rail length is released. surfboards are powered primarily via gravitational energy, this energy is gained in proportion to mass and in the position where the mass resides.
Another purpose is aerodynamic lift, the nose acts as a wing.

^ that is crazy!! I got talked into bodysurfing there once with this young Ozzie guy. We agreed before we went out that if one called the other in to a wave you had to go... anyway I called him into the first and he went. then he called me into the next 3 which I didnt go...
got a couple in the end of my choice
.
Oh yeah it wasnt that big!! maybe 4ft

For your own good realise that at half a century one should be just entering the prime of life, and then make it that way.

I award you 2 rark points for feeling the need to reply.
Freezed frame it and I liked your commitment - a few frames where you can still see you well crouched behind the curtain.

The view inside was very nice indeed.
Regarding the rark, congratulations for following the 'Ratso' tradition of being both judge, competitor, and winner simultaneously.

I am no Mike Stewart but even I know leg barrels don't count. Silly boys. I thought one of the boogers would be the self-proclaimed West Coast guru, you might know him, kinda fat but very tall.
Anyways looks small-ish today but tomorrow is shaping up nicely. Gonna hit up your local tomorrow Jabes, should be good.

The local (you there earlier Spud?). Bar has squared up a bit, or maybe the swell/tide combo is wrong. A shade too fast for these old bones. Hoping the swell angle is SE for tomorrow...

Did you surf in the morning? Was pretty big and out of control at your local after high tide. Heaps of current. Got a few decent ones but spent most of the time duckdiving and paddling.
