Waves Or Dolphins?

All the dolphins are impressive but how about the wave about 300 miles north of Perth in Western Australia? You can even see the calves streaking down the wave with the moms.

Of course our waves are nothing in comparison to the ones in your photo, but we get the dolphins all around us up here in Panama City. Whenever it's blowing SE, we are at St. Andrews State Park, next to the jetties. Every afternoon, around 4 until 6, the dolphins come in and ride with us. It's awesome! When there are waves, they are jumping out of the surf, schooling fish, or entertaining the droves of dolphin tour boats. You can watch them follow a fellow kiter in, as they ride the wake of the board. It is definitely a neat experience!

imagine paddling straight towards that
 
I had to duck dive my surfboard through a wave filled with dolphins just like that in S.W. Australia and I thought I was gonna die. I opened my eyes under water and it reminded me of light speed from star wars. The dolphins streaked right past me, all around me, head on. So fast and just missing me.
