A smaller "Banzai Pipeline" and friendlier. After watching this video http://stabmag.com/an-intimate-restaurant-date-with-kelly-slater-2/ it also seemed like SL needed a more intimate surfing wave where the wave was right next to you allowing for some picturesque still shots and high water detail. I wanted to be able to capture the multiple water movements and directions in this wave - the water curling over, the water falling down (chandeliering), the mist spraying up from crashing, the water getting left behind in a mist because of it curling over, and the powerful shooting spray near closing, so "Empty Restaurants" was born. It also allowed me to refine the camera angles as well that my surfboard uses when surfing in a pipe so here it is... "Empty Restaurants" the accumulation of all LSD wave, water and surfboard techniques wrapped up in a few videos ;) hee hee! Have fun!
A typical ride on the Empty Restaurants
The Restaurant isn't really empty....
A view from a far...
Up close inside the tube
Before fixing the surfboard camera, and at the time
I was considering calling it "Fiji's Cloudbreak"
Also note this wave changes color on every rezz varying from blue to green
