A good day today, We started with a lunch time session at St Georges beach on a fully powered 6.2 and 113, The swell was back...It was a blast.
Apparently I did a massive rocket air today, Onlookers were waiting for a backie....I was to busy shitting my shorts. I know It was big as it took forever to come down, I had time to look around and pick a spot to crash, lucky for me I landed it and with a few pumps I sailed away.
There was some dolphins out playing in the surf today which was pretty cool, Surfin the waves and playing games with us...Dolphins aren't afraid to drop in on you.
We packed up and headed home for some food and to packed the esky for the trip out to Coronation for an afternoon session. We arrived about 4pm and for a change Coronation was uncrowded, Probably a dozen riders at the most. Talking to one of the locals at St Georges, They were all heading for Gnaraloo as the wind and swell was heading that way, They can have that It's not called TombStones for nothing.
As I looked out deciding on what to rig I watched this dude pull of a massive backloop, Text book and almost in slow motion and landed perfectly. I watched on for a bit just to see what else he was going to do. As he got out to the bus stop and tacked to come back in he proceeded to absolutely cave up the waves on the way in, He was good.
As It turns out It was US-1112, 17 year old PWA super star Kai Lenny....It was awesome, I just sat there all afternoon and Watched the show....It didn't bother me at all not to sail.

I finally remembered that I had a camera in the van so I got a few shots, hope you enjoy.
