00:00I see three huge waves there.

00:03Yep. The second one is surprise.

00:06That's the big one.

00:07Okay.

00:07The first wave closest to us,

00:09we call that the sucker wave.

00:10If you hit that wave, you're not

00:12going to be able to hit the big one.

00:13To avoid getting hung up,

00:14turned over, or even knocked off course,

00:16we have to steer around the sucker wave,

00:18and then hit surprise at an angle.

00:21I mean, give me my chances here.

00:22If I hit that big wave,

00:24what are my chances of surviving that?

00:26I mean, let me rephrase it.

00:28What are my chances of staying in the boat?

00:31At this water level, I would give you a 50-50.

00:34Okay. Okay. I'll take those chances.

00:36Yeah.

00:40Anyone who knows me knows that when things get tense,

00:42I get very quiet.

00:44Colton, on the other hand, does not.

00:47Oh, man. I can see it.

00:48Oh, man. Oh, man. That's a big wave.

00:51Oh, boy. Is she churning?

00:53It's about to get crazy.

00:56Up ahead, Bill hits trouble.

00:59Oh, Bill.

01:01He almost went in.

01:02Okay. Here we go.

01:04If the guide almost flipped,

01:06my odds suddenly feel less than 50-50.

01:10Whoa.

01:12Whoa.

01:14Whoo-hoo.

01:15Get out of there.

01:16Yeah, baby.

01:18Yes.

01:19Yeah.

01:20Whoo.

01:21Oh, how's Jack doing?

01:23Nice.

01:25Whoo.

01:26Very nice. Very nice.

01:28Whoo-hoo.

01:29Yeah, baby.

01:30Yeah.

01:31Yeah, baby.

01:32All right.
