Hoax Coast Tow-In Action

Why do they do it? Get up early, drag a jet-ski down to some boat-ramp full of beer-bellied fisherman and chug around in the near dark around dangerous, kelpy, rip-infested, freezing, unknown, never before surfed radical new places that may be no good anyway? Why? For a wave like the top one on this page.

We haven't seen the Pines throw a lip like this for a long time!

Below: a decent sized wave by any standards!

Below: check out the thickness of the lip on this shallow section

Below: good position as this wave jacks up.

Below: after the heaviness of some of these shots, this stand-up barrel looks almost friendly!
