there are unspoken rules when traveling to secluded surf spots around the world. \u00a0first of all, if there are locals, they get to go first no matter what. \u00a0 but if there aren’t locals out, you take turns. \u00a0it doesn’t matter what country you’re from, you take turns. \u00a0i’ve gotten into many arguments and even fights because there are some surfers that think they are more entitled than you because of their nationality or skin color. \u00a0most experienced and good surfers know this rule so there are usually no problems. \u00a0BUT, there is always one idiot that thinks they own the ocean where ever they go. \u00a0here is an example of that…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

we’re out at HT’s in the Mentawai islands. \u00a0it was very uncrowded so many waves for everyone. \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

Toda-san was waiting the longest so this was pretty much his wave. \u00a0everything looking good from the start. \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

then here is where it gets interesting. \u00a0even though Toda-san is practically on the wave already, 2 other guys start to paddle for the same wave.\u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

that guy with the white rash guard is totally clueless. \u00a0he thinks it’s a contest so the guy with inside position gets the wave. \u00a0sorry but this is no contest.\u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

the guy on the shoulder finally looks and pulls back. \u00a0 Toda-san is already starting his turn down the line and the guy behind is still trying to go.\u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

if i was Toda-san, i would have kept on going too. \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

now the guy in back is probably yelling to get Toda-san off the wave. \"\"<\/p>\n

but Toda-san is fully committed and isn’t looking back. \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

keep on going Toda-san!\"\"<\/p>\n

i would never try to ride a wave behind a SUP. \u00a0especially when the nearest hospital is 12 hours away. \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

usually the inexperienced end up getting smashed by Mother Nature. \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

and the stronger and wiser man comes out the winner. \u00a0good job Toda-san. \u00a0never give in!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
