In one of the magazines they were talking about how they wanted to keep that Kerby wave a secret... I'm not sure why that would even be necessary!

Re: Kirby- and he *eats* it, too!!!
I can't believe people actually ride waves like that. I would puss out of a chest-high wave that was quadrupling up the way that thing was. The water can't be any deeper that maybe a third of it's height- maybe less??
Random thoughts:
Who who dare judge the height of that thing "from the back"?
And- what a bummer it would be to die at a spot called "Cow Bombie"!
