And I thought getting pitched on a board sucked . Looks like they were sportin' the rubber suits tho.

The fort point wave is big! jdk Since 21 Dec 2005 333 Posts Obsessed Tue Mar 04, 08 5:57 pm     That is insane. looks like they got away at least i had no idea people surfed a break right there... maybe on flooding tide its good (bad if you're in a sailboat) Gman Since 11 Feb 2006 4911 Posts Portland Unstrapped Tue Mar 04, 08 6:16 pm     Used to surf that spot in my waveski - http://www.surfski.com/ pretty sick spot, the tide had to be low and the wave would start out knee high under the bridge, then wrap around and jack up sometimes to double overhead - ended up a couple of times beached on the barnacle encrusted rocks - wapaa! pacifichigh Since 11 May 2005 1004 Posts ATX Texan Tue Mar 04, 08 6:50 pm     What a kook, good local knowledge. broadbandito Since 26 Apr 2005 342 Posts CSO headwaters WheatHead Wed Mar 05, 08 7:59 am     Looks like the sails luffed right when the wave came--you'd want some power to stay ahead of the break! What were they thinking? Actually, it was probably really fun for about 2 seconds. tautologies Since 24 Aug 2006 602 Posts Oahu Addicted Thu Mar 06, 08 10:34 pm     yup, it's a classic..."what not to do"..or a deserving "WHAT WERE THEY THINKING" award. Anyone thinking a possible darwin award winner? It must absolutely suck being in the line up and getting thrashed by a 35 foot boat. THEN I'd be pissed....
