When I see some with perfect board control, wave knowledge and smooth style; I consider that ripping now too. It doesn't necessarily have to be radical surfing. Some 120lb kid can blast an air reverse and hop and flail around when doing it but is that really ripping? I mean well yeah it probably is. I can't do it. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBut I have a growing respect for someone that clearly has put in the time to control their board and place it in the correct parts of the wave and can link some turns together(or walk around on it). They don't have to be difficult turns or throw a ton of spray, just nice turns on the right part of the wave. I think that kind of surfing can be done at any age."]], "columns": ["post_id", "thread_id", "thread_title", "post_number", "author_username", "post_date", "post_date_iso", "post_body"], "primary_keys": ["post_id"], "primary_key_values": ["292841"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.6887800009280909, "license": "Public Domain"}
