    You have to love the east coast. At least for us in VB, Hatteras is a relatively short drive for some quality surf. :D The photos look good and especially like #4. I wish the next image in the sequence captured the cutback but I can vivdly imagine it.

    thanks Travis....
    I've spend some "quality" time at Hatteras myself......Avon and Buxton areas hold fond summer memories for me!

    That first one looks almost Epic..... for the East Coast.

    Very enjoyable shots and good light for the conditions.

    Nice shots! Great light, capture and composition. I love it when sports shots make me interested in a sport I am usually not interested in. :)
