Filed under Bodyboard Photos @ 5 - June - 2007
This is Waimea shore break, where 20-foot waves that break on the more famous point wrap into the bay to explode on shallow sandbars as hellish 12-foot tubes.
Only a few extreme bodyboarders challenge it, kicking their sponge-soft boards over the ledge for a thrilling plunge into thin air and a brief tube ride.
And a brutal beating. This unknown rider challenges the beast. The infamous Waimea Shorebreak takes one more…

I am in West Africa, and there we hope to get a surf report before we cross town to get to the beach break at the right time. Unfortunately, here in Africa, a webcam is hard to find and very expensive. In addition, the internet speed is too slow to have a good video feed. So, for me and my friends, the problem was how can we afford a good surf report. That’s when we thought of creating Laplaj.Com. Hence on this site, you can upload photos and text reports directly from a cell phone, assuming the phone has a camera and can send emails. A friend of mine who owns a surf shop near the beach takes a couple of photos every morning and adds a few comments. That way, he keeps us up to date on the local surf… Pretty cool hein! Take advantage of it, the tool is open to all the surf addicts like myself.
Lamine.
Ha ha loser
what an idiot
he probaly died
The boarders name is Tim Jones and I use to surf with him around the Central Coast of NSW,Australia.And Danial Cavanaugh and Wee,obviously you cant surf seeing your trying to take credit for someone elses bravery,he was the only one with big enough balls to go out that day and he did it over and over again getting a couple of the most insane shorie barrels I have seen to this day,Danial and Wee go back to the kiddies pool boys.Floggers lol.
that is actually 2x world champ south african andre botha
Wrong “Bodyboard” its Tim Jones Ive got the edition of “Waves” mag with the series of shots right in front of me. Tim now is into photography and rips at that too
oh i just love jesus
doidera!!!! o///
i wonder if that was painful
Mate this guy is a nutter full credit. I am a surfer but when the conditions were closing out used to get a lid and surf the shores myself. I have to say even this photo doesnt give him the credit he deserves. When you are out there and paddling in( i paddled in to waves a sixth the size) the barrels seem so much bigger than pictures give credit for. You could drive a bus through that thing thats how big it is
This is actualy andre botha and the photo was taken by Tim Jones
Sorry Hazz. I don’t know the crazy guy, but the photographer is definitely Tim McKenna.

But the shot was taken be Tim Mckenna.
i have this whole sequence of photos
it was definately taken by tim mckenna
as for the bodyboarder thats up for debate but the photog. is defs tim mckenna so all of you who thinks it tim jones fuck off
BRAZIL
i’ll settle this argument once and for all. this photo was published way back in 92-93 in riptide magazine. the bboarder IS tim jones. he took off on several of these monsters and then came in mentioning that he had lined the photographers pockets with gold in the space of a few short minutes. i don’t have the magazine anymore but i will go to my grave knowing full well that jonesy was the bloke who copped probably the heaviest shorebreak thumping ever caught on camera. i’ll never forget this sequence of photos
that is insane thats going to “crushtheshitoutofhim” !!!!
How to create the communication and media essays is a thing, people are willing to know about all their student years. Hence they will see answers at paper writing services.
Queda do caramba!
BraZIL TEM MUITOS SURFISTAS DE BODYBOARD!!!!!!

tchiiii queda mesmo fudenga
ele morreu??
Oh oh. Being thrown over the lip and sucked back over again really sucks. It doesn’t matter if one’s a marshmello, surfer or bodysurfer, we all know when taking off there’s the risk of getting hurt. But it’s making it that gets me really going and stoked.
OHH FUCKK BABYY BABYYY FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
