What a bummer, a surfer was found dead, floating face down at RC's today. Possible heart attack, but with today's conditions, it's more likely he drowned, but idk, just heard about it. Maybe both happened? No I.D. Yet, anybody closer to the situation know what's up? Be careful people, if you're not sure, don't paddle out.
My point was that beautiful large waves from the storm accounted for his death. Now git back to your waffle iron!!
Wow....is that the smallest effort to help or revive someone or what?? Are all the parameds at bbqs??
True--I have always said that is the way I want to go, not in an I.C.U......unless there is IV morphine promised!!!
I like it Every time each of us goes out, especially in big surf, the reality of injury or death is there. There is no escaping it, yet we are drawn to it - to the beauty. Death like this is sad, and wasteful, but we accept that reality.

Very true, It was big, but not crazy big, when I was out there I never thought this would happen to someone, but you never know.
My old man drowned in his pool last year. It's a long story, but after being under for 60 minutes, and trying for an additional 15 they revived him. Totally brain dead at that point. Kinda pissed me off that they kept trying. Fuk what a nightmare going through all the BS of hospital and doctors, looking at him hooked up with tubes and all. Only to in the end give the ok to pull the plug. If I'm down for that long let me be.
That's heavy man, I'm sorry for the loss of your pops. I sure hope he's in a better place. Unexpected death is tough, real tough. You don't get to plan your goodbye. As for this guy, sending positive vibes to him and his family. He died doing what he loved.
Thanks Metard. Everyone please remember, life is short, and you never know when it's time. Cherish every moment with the ones you love.
Keep an eye out. I was walking back totally spent and I heard the lifeguard blow the horn,and I looked out and saw a kid in trouble. I would not have seen him from my vantage point except for his hand waving for help. By the time I got to him with my board, the lifeguard had him secured in his peterson buoy and all was good. But my point is, during the swell we have going on, keep an eye out for those who should not be out there.
