On cue, I see the young French man fall into the water, his head pops up about half a foot away from the nose of my board as I cut inside him. It was tight, real tight and I’m sure he saw his life flashing in front of him but “what happens on the race course isn’t personal it’s just business baby!!” So now I am in fourth and in a good position to watch the battle between Josh and Julian unfold in front of me and watch for my time to attack. Usually the guys are so caught up with their own battle they won’t even see the next guy in the field. All I have to do is focus on getting that ultra fast trim and wait for my moment, like a tiger lying in the long grass watching his prey.
