Good stuff... Its unusual to get any decent shots of Cribbar working as it is usually pretty miserable weather when it does, but those
are good.
Some giant waves for the UK as well!!

I'm working in Newquay now and have seen the local press interest as well. Impressive though it was it is amusing to see the press hail
this as the biggest waves ever seen in the UK. From what I've heard Cribbar gets much bigger given the right swell but compared to
Bigbury in Nov 03 (as publicised in the windsurf mags at the time) it was only half the size. Hopefully the press will be as interested
when the UK waves show their real mettle.

I lived on headland road, which is right next to cribbar for a couple of years, and it works really regulary, most people only surf it
when its really clean though. It was surprising how many hell men paddled out alone on super scary days mind!!!!
