I've never seen this turn before....



Fast forward to :50 and 1:40.

In the movie " North Shore", when Rick says "how can you turn this ? It doesn't even have a fin !" Chandler explains to use his foot like the ancient Hawaiians did.

Is that even a turn? Looks more like he is playing around kicking the water
So what is worse.... dying or regretting it for the rest of my life? Obviously I chose not regretting it.

Catching a wave backwards is quite a trick! (1:53)
