Everyone who stand up paddle boards, or does any board sport has taken their share of crashes, spills, or made a few technique fails along the way. Some big, some minor, but it is just a fact of life and it happens to even the best of us. However, some stand up paddle board crashes and fails are a little more impressive than others
#1 Coming in Hot.
Everyone has gotten licked by the shore break, but this guy takes it to another level.
#2 Almost nailed it
He had this, right up until the very end.
#3 Pitted
Full credit for staying calm and just getting eaten by the wave. Wonder how the GoPro footage from the paddle-cam turned out?
#4 I've Got This
Doomed from the start, but, it was a really big drop so you have to give him credit for trying
#5 Fails even happen in Paradise
Just because you are in Tahiti, doesn't mean that you are fail proof.
