​I was hired by Surfline to cover the first two Nelscott Reef tow-in events.  Nelscott is a reef about a mile offshore the beach in Oregon that produces some massive surf.  The scariest part is actually getting out there - it requires a gut-wrenching jet-ski-powered battle through a vicious inside shore pound with no channels.  I was the only photographer that shot from the water that day.  This is of my good friend 'Frog,' charging it.
