Barrel roll practice at the Surf Slam

Here's a couple shots of me trying to get the barrel rolls down here in Pacific City, Or. Surf rolls are SO much easier than flat, obviously. This is my first time in REAL surf, so I was pretty nervous to hit a big wave. I tooled around forever looking for waves SMALL enough to hit, lol. Finally sak'd up and have been throwing them off 6-8's. The right side of my body is bruised from my knee almost to my chest from about a half dozen 3/4 rolls, haha.
This is also my first time rolling in surf stance as this boat only has one rear strap, so it took some getting used to. Let me know what you think, going back out in a bit to try again.

Thanks for the props guys. It was en epic time. Surf was amazing, couldn't have asked for better weather. I feel like one of two balls has finally dropped, the other is waiting on the backflip.
