Ha ha Doc, hmmm, gettin eaten at Chopes...or gettin slapped at the Wedge. They both go down the bottom of my to do list.

Great Vids! :wink:

I am going to say that my worst wipeout was when I did my shoulder at Cheezy's. It was only about 4-5 foot but when I stood up, the water was lapping at my ankles hence the mutilated shoulder and excessive vomiting on the beach :roll:

I reckon You would take this category though eh Jonno, ya got the x-rays to prove it! :wink:

Just watched all those vids then. Man makes me sic to the stomach the stuff I used to get away with. Makes me think how big n heavy does a wave need to be to really get injured. Anyone seen No friends, road to ruin?

Watch the intro. Is awesome. think its in hawai not sure but its a huge shorey.

I could tell u my worst wipe out but most of u already know. But ive had my fare share. All of the bigger ones I didnt like. Anything under the 5ft mark were usually alright. Depends on what u mean by fun. I mean u charge something knowing its a close out with you and ur mates. just pushing each other. thats fun. Otherwise i hate being held down n in a washing machine. Worst feeling ever. then to look back up and see another wave break on top of you. grrr :evil:

when i look at those photos of wipeouts i can almost feel their pain :?
the worst wipeout i have had was when the lip landed on me at box and i did some martial arts under water, then my leash got tangled round my neck a bit but then when i came up i undid it and then i was all sweet again and paddled out and got some good waves :)

k.... so i dunno if this classifies as a wipeout.. pretty sure so - well... it is gonna be one HELL of a landing...
anyways "Diogo" is aPortuguese photog and booger here.. anywyas i was looking for some big wave stuff and saw this - it is a photog moment of freakin ecstasy - this dude looks like he is walkin on water - first time in 2000 years aye?! :shock:
it is a Freak shot - credit to diogo.. I cant give direct shot link cos it is slide show. anyways it is the second frame along IMG 0865... go seeeeee :shock: :twisted:
there is also some freakin cool other stuff in there - but go to #2 first - then get distracted in some insane booger loove
