Question

Deep in a barrell or off the top?

Answer 1

Barrels or airs?

Definately barrels. Airs are fun, but nothing compares to getting shacked. I mean, there is nothing like it anywhere. No other sport (that I can think of at the moment) has anything like it. You can get air snowboarding, skateboarding, h**l, even wind surfing. But nowhere but surfing can you be encased in a moving wall of water, honestly nothing feels so good and is so beautiful. Heck, its so sick that even dolphins do it. Yeah, thats right, dolphins  surf and even get barreled. But they don't see dolphins getting air, do you? Mother nature prefers barrels.

Oh, I guess bodyboarders can get barreled too, but thats hardly challenging. One of the hardest things about surfing is the pop up, which spongers (and tow-in) eliminates. Even pro surfers eat sh** sometimes. If you ever watch the movie Absolute Mexico (where Cory Lopez has a 30 second tube) even Kelly Slater eats sh**, repeatedly at this one spot.

Edit*

to Robinsmv, maybe you should read what I wrote a little more carefully. Getting air by simply jumping is not what I meant. Dolphins actually ride the waves, and while riding them, they don't "get air." They do get shacked though, which was my point. Of course everyone knows they jump at seaworld, but how is that different from you just jumping outside in your driveway? Its not, they're not getting air WHILE surfing, which was my main point. Don't be retarted, learn how to read.

Answer 2

I've never landed an air or come out of a full cover up barrel. But I would prefer to come out of a deep barrel than simply land an air, which I can do at the skate park any time I want.

Answer 3

deeeeep in the barrel. Cuz I'm a spongeeerrr, and I love BARRELSSSSSSSSSS. So deep in the barrel man. Barrels are what I live for, but nothing beats an air either... overall barrels of fuunnn for me.

Answer 4

off the top - more move to combine it with. ie. 3's, grabs, back side 180's...

Answer 5

I do both........but i like barrell s

Answer 6

between the two i would check into the green room whenever possible, and to answer one of chris k's questions i have seen dolphins get air all the time, havent you ever been to sea world? they do more flips than any pro surfer.  heres a little video from right down the street from me with a dolphin bustin air right behind a longboarder.

Answer 7

Off the top.

Answer 8

Barrel, I'm too old and fat for air (except in a really wilda$$ wipeout).

Chris K and RobinsMV - be cool. Great video, and not to sound like a smack, but about three years ago on an early October overhead day, I had TWO doplhins come out of the wave just ahead me. Just when I thought I was gettin' good, a couple local dudes came around and showed me up!

Answer 9

both are amazing and i do my fair share of both
