    Tow Surfing Should Be Continued, Should Be Mandatory.. They Should Be Going After Big Companies Dumping Industrial Waste Into The Oceans Not Sweating The Small Stuff

    No you can't use a jet ski to save lives but two miles off shore you can dump all the crap you want in the ocean.
    It makes no sense. Only money.

    Tow surfing was outlawed because of the gasoline engine in a marine sanctuary. What about electric jet ski?

      @BC Bob I mostly agree except for situations where you can surf waves that would be impossible to paddle into.

      @@mrtjpeno1141 I agree with most of what you're saying except the part about hamilton not being on the mt rushmore of surfing with foo & bradshaw. What percent of ALL waves got caught on camera for these guys. They surfed almost daily in the 70, 80, 90's when video camera's weighed 10lbs and needed tripods & car sized batteries to last all day. (And someone to operate them)
      You and I have seen maybe 0.0001% of their actual rides. That leaves countless legends out of the conversation completely!
