New Years eve barrels at Noriega

It was pumping on the 31st and I cruised to the beach with Ramin to shoot some photos. I was using Joanie's Canon G9, but it was difficult to figure out how to change the setting to continuous shot so I could shoot sequences. I sat on the beach messing with the settings, and in the process I lost track of Ramin in the lineup. Also, like an idiot I somehow changed the resolution to 0.3 megapixels, so the photos turned out thumbnail sized instead of 12mp poster size. Oops. Despite the newbie photog blunders, I managed to get a few decent shots, including some of Ramin, and this sick barrel sequence below:

I like how the guy claims his barrel.

Course I call him out on it now, but if I ever get my barrel cherry popped I'll probably be doing just the same thing.

So, more power to ya barrel claimer!!!

Nice photos.

yeah, a deservedly claimed barrel if you ask me...hell, i'd claim it before even making it ;) we should have a session where we claim every single wave, just to get stoked...
