For everyone judging this video go make your own rough water video. High speed video. Sweet off road hill climb video. Mountain bike jump video. Etc. Then try watching it and see how LAME they always turn out. Video never does it justice.

Couldn't agree more, that's the case every time my wife and I try making a sex tape!

Go-Pro with a "fish-eye" lens... Works 60% of the time, all the time. Not with your wife, though, sir. I've never even met her.

I will have to look into the "fish eye" lens and get back to you!

That's right - go on the NOAA website and find the day that had at least 15 ft waves. Then tell everyone here that was the day.
I still say NO WAY anywhere close to 15 ft waves.

Earlier posts indicate video was taken with an iPhone, so the original would probably have a geotag and datestamp .
Anybody know if the metadata gets embedded into the YouTube video when uploaded?
I wouldn't count on it being there. Likewise, if I were the person that posted the video, I wouldn't stake my reputation on just picking a suitable NOAA report and claiming that was the day in question.

Regardless, Scott from Pier 57 spoke up, took the beating, and called solid 8's on the wave conditions, as opposed to the video which claimed 15's, but apparently wasn't posted by him.

My ex-wife would agree those waves were less than 8

It looked choppy with some 3-4 footers in there, but all boaters exaggerate ....

. Need to run fast in that stuff, stay on top of it. I "ran" my 42 Cig in 15-18 footers before (actual 18 foot swell). There is no getting on plane, you are literally climbing hills up and down. No forward visibility when in the trough. There was a hurricane in Mexico one year and we got a huge swell in Newport Beach CA near the wedge. It was crazy...... Ah the good ol days .....
