I don't believe that is you doing a handle pass for one second!

Its no't a handle pass.

But didn't you criticize my avatar for how I ride in waves just a couple pages back?? Yup! There it is
foilholio wrote: BTW that looks like a nice jibe you did in your avatar Starsky how close did you get to the wave? ROFL. It looks like it is bearing down on your knees, if you stuck a foot out it might get a barrel.

Oh and also not many people know how to surf with an inflatable either :-/ Jesus. See Starsky's avatar for proof.
Why don't you show us one of how you kill it in proper surf. How many times have you claimed to surf with a foil in 8-10 knots. Yeah show us one of those so we can see exactly what your talking about. Or maybe something more sedate, maybe even just backing your claims of riding in 4 knots... hell pick a windy one, even 6 knots on whatever you ride. I bet that makes for dramatic stuff! show us Foilholio, kill all that doubt! Send your nemesis running with his strings between his legs!

I mean. No avatar, never a single pic, just a lot of talk talk claim talk. How are we to know your not just a few lines of code someone created simply to annoy?

Handling looks a bit different than the ParaskiFlex in the first video...
The bar as well...

What ever it is, I don't believe it's you doing it. It looks far too cool.

When you get the results back from forensics you can suck my dick.

They are all me. That kind of bullshit is beneath me.

Yes, you are right.
The handling and control of first inflatable was a bit different too. The bar as well.
But still an inflatable.
