This is a true story. You’re called to the beach to partake in your sponsors photoshoot. Every Pro sailor & his board is out at your local break jockeying for position. The helicopter is flying overhead, booked for a substantial fee for just 30mins. This is the only chance that you will get to be all over your sponsor’s brochures & advertising campaign for the next 12 months. You can’t get a wave, there is none to be had, the clock is ticking & then you spot the only decent swell line of the session. One chance, one wave….we’re impressed Levi!
