Looking into the Green Room at over 20km/hr! Fast, frothy, wet fun.

The modern world of POV-style cameras like the GoProHD and Contour has opened up the world of action-videos to sporty types all over the world.

BONUS – Vale Eric Soares the Wave Warrior

I’ve included this one as the world of ocean paddling lost a true pioneer during 2012 when Eric Soares of the Tsunami Rangers passed on. This video was very nearly in the 10th spot and deserves to be included, if not for any reason other than that in the history of paddling videos, the Tsunami Rangers made some of the earliest, craziest and for me personally, most inspiring. RIP Eric, never forgotten.
