New Year's Surf video

Here's a video I made in front of Keawakapu Beach in Maui. I was paddling back and forth on the same section of water while my wife and son hung out on the beach. At one point my 12 year old looks out at me flying the ama and says to my wife, "They grow up so quick, don't they?"

It seems a little long because I held some of the shots longer, knowing that paddling geeks like myself enjoy that part. I used a cheap Olympus water-proof camera mounted on a suction cup camera mount, stuck all over a borrowed Scorpius.

Don't pick my technique apart too badly. And yes, I already know I have pasty pale, dead-fish-belly white skin. And it wouldn't hurt if I did a sit up or two. Not all of us outrigger paddlers can be beautiful.
