Taj Burrow, PWC-assisted but still sweet as hell, Western Australia

A couple o’ days ago we posted a short clip of Taj Burrow (pictured here) and Jay Davies towing into Supers in Western Australia. Supers sits a little way off the beach, and the clip was filmed from the sand. Because of this, it was probably a little hard to grasp the extent to which Jay and Taj were going loony. The image above, shot by Shane Dawson, gives a lot more clarity to one of Taj’s better spins of the day. Luckily this was a sequence, ’cause there’d be a plenty who’d call throw-away if only the main image was shown. Ski-assisted or not, this is still the sweetest of ‘oops.
