Radical rodents

This footage has been sent to me by Neil, who, I am hoping, will shortly confirm that the rodents were stoked, not smoked, after their experience...

Alex - don't know about stoked - but I'll bet those guys get rat-arsed after a good session!
Bearing in mind some of the waves are double overhead on the rodent scale, you have to hand it to them. I particularly admired that dismount on the last ride - note no leash!
According to Justin Gane who put the clip together, the team have been surfing in Queensland for three years, and should be releasing a film later this year. Can't wait for the tow-in sessions at knee-high Kirra!

It's okay for those twitchy nosed, long tailed furry rodentia - they have giant 'blackshorts' blocking for them in the line up!
What about the rest of us rats who have to fight it out for ourselves?
Hard cheese I suppose...
