Description

AloooooooHa~ Another shot in this short series of a nice swell happening on the south shore of the Big Island. This shot goes to show you that not all rides have a happy endings. Here a boogie boarder pushes his limits and pays for the mistake. As you can see he is wearing a helmet and wet suit as the reef is very shallow here and injuries are quite prevalent in this sport. These guys take their lumps and keep on going...reef scrapes and blood in the water is quite common. He did come out of this unscathed... Many thanks on your kind comments on my previous uploads in this series...I read and appreciate everyone~ Aloha~

First time I ever saw someone surfing or boogie boarding with a helmet before. Good thinking for the lava rock areas. Another great shot Dave. Aloha

Another brilliant shot! BTW, I did realize you can visit at "my" ocean site more frequently, thanks! I have managed to get there about six times, but still can't get enough.
