92 STORY Patri McLaughlin looks in the mouth of the monster in Jaws STORY Patri McLaughlin looks in the mouth of the monster in Jaws! text Patri McLaughlin | photo Erik Aeder coordination by reemedia.de
Just before this wave I got a really good barrel at Peahi (“Jaws”, at the North Shore of the island of Maui).) It was my first clean barrel out there and it gave me a feeling I can´t even decribe. I was instantly addicted, and I wanted another one… a bigger one! So five minutes later I dropped into this wave pictured. I set myself up really deep behind the peak of the wave. As the wave began to hit the reef I could tell it was going to hollow out and barrel. I edged against the kite one last time to make sure I was deep enough. Just after I slammed on the breaks my kite hit a lull in the wind and lost tension and steering. As I began to bottom turn I quickly realized I was too deep and it was going to be bad. I wanted to make sure I didn't get hit by the lip of the wave so I set my rail as hard as I could trying to get higher up on the face. I figured if I can get high I might have a chance to make it. Just as I got under the lip and into the barrel I hit a big piece of chop and lost my rail. It was by far the biggest barrel I have seen from the inside, and one of the scariest moments of my life! Unfortunately I could only watch the lip fly over my head as I skipped on my stomach knowing that I was going down hard. As I bodysurfed into oblivion, I sent my kite up and prayed. Luckily the kite regained control and shot into the sky ripping me out the back of the wave. And what about my board? My board went up onto the rocks and snapped in two pieces! My session was over, but I made it back to the beach unscathed.
