No. I rode Mavericks, many times. You can’t use jet skis there. Too many rocks and reefs. This is Jaws, I believe.
How totally cool...you actually rode Mavericks?
Wow!
Good for you...I just confined myself to the piers at Newport, and mild waves at that.
I remember calling Logan Lockabie’s Surf Report every day after school and hearing what the conditions were like, and if it was a Black Flag day I’d go watch those ballsy surfers...but I’d never go in when it was like that!
I body surfed The Wedge once, in mild conditions, and that was good enough for me.
Outstanding that you’ve surfed Mavericks, though...way cool.
Did you know that Hawaiian kid who drowned there a few years back?
See ya’,

That is very cool.
I've never even touched a surf board, and the ocean scares the crap out of me, but I have had a strong fascination with surfing since I saw The Big Swell and Riding Giants a few years back.
I think it's because those guys really live.
