Wave Riding Cape Point
February 23, 2005
We finally got some fat bombs pushing through and a good breeze at Cape Point. Peter Petersen was down with the flu, but managed to get in a good couple of runs. He was visibly tired and it showed in his kiting, but as usual he never fails to impress.
The waves were at least mast high in windsurfing terms, the water was blue, there was a whole school of dolphins cruising up and down and even pulling into a wave with a pole boarder. Cape Point is a wave rider's paradise, but beware. Huge waves that close out in front of sharp rocks are dangerous territory, or perhaps it is natures way of keeping the masses at dolphin beach.
We'll be venturing out there for the next few weeks, in search for the perfect wave and some more action pictures.
Here's an awesome moment I managed to capture on film. Robert pulling into a wave with a school of dolphins. There were two dolphins to the right of him too, but unfortunately the spray from his board covered them.
