 This is not the greatest picture I've ever taken, but the guy is riding backwards which is something I've never seen before. A few seconds later he turned around and was riding facing forward again. I have no idea what he was up to.

Great timing on this shot. What was he thinking. This is really popular here in Hawaii.

This is one sport i wouldn't want to try let alone backwards.. It's hard work to get the board out to where they want to be and no life jackets.. Plus the shark factor..

Anyhow fun to watch and leave to the adventurous..
Nice capture.

Good timing to be there to get this. It looks like he is sweeping with the paddle.

That's funny ! The moment captured is quite unusual :)

Looks like he's sweeping the water as if it were a floor. Cleaning up all that pesky foam. Nice capture of a puzzling moment.

What an unusual activity. Looks a lot of fun, though. I really like the strong diagonal in this, just leading straight to the subject.

NICE capture for a split second chance!! These guys are so daring. I could never do something like that, especially backwards. Very nice find and image!!!
