He was very lucky to have been thrown clear of the boat. It appears the boat was already chine walking from some boat wakes then got airborne off a heavy roller which the combination of the two was not going to let the boat come down straight. The boat then goes and trips on the next roller forcing the re-entry to push the one side of the bow down first. From there, the boat bounces off the water enough to create lift that leaves the boat in a bad postion. Sort of like a sheet of plywood catching a gust of wind.....

Glad to hear he is ok.....

He is so lucky. It's crazy how fast things happen. It looked like he has a shot of pulling out of it but kept going and thats when he tripped.

Makes you wonder why you would want to go that fast without being in an enlosed canapy. I also guess that is a big reason why a lot of the radar shootouts are being cancelled or not allowed these days.
