Here is a video of myself at the 2012 Blowison Surf Slam on my 2008 Superjet with a stock 701. I also included two clips from a surf session and a day in the hills last week. Enjoy!

Nobody in Oceanside ever tows another rider when we are in the impact zone. It is an unneccesary risk of both riders and skis(Tanner Thomas's hand for example). If you break down, just hold on to your ski and the surf will push you in. Even if it is 6'+, as long as you hold on to your ski...
And if someone is riding a wave, do not snake them and take the wave. Also if you are heading out and a rider is riding a wave, do not cross in front of the face. Go towards the breaking part of the wave and hop over the wave behind the rider so you do not chop up the face of the wave.

I ride flat and surf. But I do not bother with trying tricks on flat. After landing on my head once...
