I,ve been paddling in for 45yrs, never beleved in tow surfing,but laird would be throwing spray in . Dorian face on the pullback, followed by a 10ft. air drop 3 or 4 S turns and a 15ft. fly out. I,ed rather surf a wave than just make it “or not”. makes you wonder.

#20 should be captioned: “straightening out on a closeout.” Strategically cropped. Nice try.

Looks like some serious shoulder-hopping going on at Mavs.
