BEHIND THE LENS<br />
ABOVE: Once the boys (Kyle,<br />
Gordie, Taane and Oscar ) got<br />
use to the jetski, this amazing<br />
wave really opened up. It<br />
gave us Hawai-type power in<br />
our backyard and introduced<br />
a whole new level of surfing.<br />
What we were doing at the<br />
time is summed up in this<br />
photo, as Davo looks into the<br />
eye of a beast, three times as<br />
hollow as high.<br />
RIGHT: I’m not into naming<br />
spots, but this is a exception<br />
to the rule. It’s so hard to get<br />
to, lying a third of the way out<br />
in one of the worlds roughest<br />
straits, Faux Straight, which<br />
is a White Pointer breeding<br />
area. It’s open to the most wild<br />
weather one can imagine - so<br />
changeable and very dangerous<br />
and only for the MADDEST of<br />
surfers. This was our first year<br />
attempting to surf this crazy<br />
place. Dave Stevenson (Mong)<br />
has a crack at paddling it.<br />
