In order to get the "scenery shot" just before the SUP party wave, I saw Cam cross the highway and start huffing it up rattlesnake cliff several hundred feet packing his kit across some seriously sketchy terrain.

Terrapin's Big Wave Windsurfing 'Hunting for Wind' Vid

Post by Sandy Beach »

Terrapin, omg, incredible quality! I have goosebumps watching your video. This clip has a powerful message and speaks to those of us living the lifestyle of wind and watersports on the Pacific west coast.
In my opinion, videos like this may grow our amazing sport of windsurfing in the future, and definately fuels the stoke that already exists.
We are a fortunate group to have a unique, special wind community on Vancouver Island and I think the BWD site has a lot to do with it. Thank-you, Dave!:)
In memory of Andrei is a heartwrenching way to tie up the video and captures the emotion that our local wind community has been feeling for the past several months.
You have amazing talents. Thank-you for sharing them with those who appreciate them most, the stars of the show and friends!
Would love to see more in the future please:)
Life is all about balance, and a dose of healthy wind addiction

So stoked to have you in this community, Cam! Great effort on the video. Excellent edits and flow. I'd just felt like the pain of missing this trip had eased and now I'm truly gutted I had to miss it (though the new grommet experience has been very cool). You captured the "hang" as well as the action. Really nicely done! Please make more windy vids!

Didn't you hear one of the locals talking to Jesse and I about the serpents as you were scaling the wall? Oh right, I guess not.

Really good video Cam. Awesome scenery shots/people shots. Tony killed as the "narrator" type too. Next trip to the coast starts July 27th? Any takers if there is wind (and waves)?

Wow, good job! That sets the bar high.

And love this quote "surfing's fun, but it's just something to pass the time until the wind picks up". LOL

Great job Cam. Bet you put a few hours into that. Tony's narration sets it off. Thanks for the Oregon 2012 souvenir and fame!

Nice touch to remember RD at the end. Only 11 months til we do it again :twisted:
