not sure how this one will go,

the original really appealed to me, it has lost sharpness here...anyway.

here a local surfer negotiates the Wedge that the ocean throws up at him, this sort of wave almost bounces of of other waves, creating a very steep wave, the way it wedges presents a challenge to the surfers, this photo captures part of the challenge of riding these types of waves

Hi Mark - This image is underrated. The moment is great with all the details there to tell the story. You've managed to catch that dynamic moment well indeed! I do like it. - Cheers, Cordelia :))
