That day was so awesome....although a little bit scarey at times! Definately the biggest, windiest day ive ever done a downwind paddle. My fingers were sore just trying to stop my paddle from blowing out of my hands! That paddle was definately one of my all time paddling highlights! Equally impressive was Bakers ability to stay upright on his ski that day after his late night 'Casanova' antics the previous night! Spewin the headcam didnt work. - adam Tue, 07 Oct 2008 15:19:17 +0100 http://www.surfski.info/content/view/824/147/#pc_2797 What is a skate? Baker disappointed me by pulling out.......I thought he was carrying the flag for the young boys in aus! jokes, that pic of ash gives me a good idea of how hectic it was! well done boys! - Jasper Mocke Sun, 05 Oct 2008 23:22:00 +0100 http://www.surfski.info/content/view/824/147/#pc_2796 Ha ha!had a good chuckle looking at the pic of a team DWARF member chasing after his ski.looks like you boys had some fun!!!!all be it life-risking stuff.good on ya mates! ;D - Brett Bartho Sun, 05 Oct 2008 20:34:48 +0100 http://www.surfski.info/content/view/824/147/#pc_2791 Well done Deano on documenting the story!!
