I know it's not Specifically Surfing, but it is KiteSurfing.
I went down to the Newport Reef, Sydney on the 6th June, Wednesday, 2012 and filmed this video KiteSurfing Big Waves & Winds. The Boys were checking it out for 1 1/5 hours before they went out in Gusty wind conditions. It was Epic and Super Scary, I stayed on the beach and filmed. I'm not silly.
The guys said it was Super Gusty and that their Kites were too Big, they mainly had 8 meter Kites. They said that the 8 meter Kites were too Big for the wind conditions and that should have had 6 - 7 meters. Smaller Kites mean more control, less wind surface area, stops the Kites overpowering them and getting out of control.
Hope you enjoy the Vid.
