Believe me...If we had known the surf was going to be 8ft coming back in..I don't think we would have launched. It was do-able in the morning and absolutely beautiful when we were out there...but when we came in...oh boy it was scary..! And once we had committed to coming in there was no return.

I hear ya. I have the luxury of living fairly close by. So if the surf report is off, and it's big out there, it's not a huge loss to turn around and wait for a better day. But if you're driving from a ways away, might as well make the best of it.

ive surf launched/landed well over 100 times to all sorts of conditions. only flipped 2 times, both coming in. even at a 2% flip ratio i still get butterflies out and in.
