Canoe surfing the biggest swell off Waikiki in 30 years

See the link below for a video and more about Ron Drummond surfing canoes without outriggers in California during the 1960s.

I was wondering how they miss the surfboarders but I'm not sure they do... certainly looks like they ran over one at 52 seconds and must have missed the guy at 3:10 by inches.
I was wondering that myself. Getting clocked by a big canoe flying down the face of a wave would kind of ruin your surfing day.
 
Just once I had the opportunity to surf in Hawaii using an outrigger canoe. Certainly nothing as big as what they were on but man, it was a rush. I ran into a local canoe club that day and they gave me the chance to try out in one of their solo outriggers. What a wonderful experience.

That's all for now. Take care and until next time...be well.
