Nice. The first says 1,000 words about catching a wave on a mat and going into riding position. The second says 1,000 words about what's it's like to be dropped in on by a longboarder in 2020 :) I've seen other videos of your mat riding and relate to loving a fast straight line on an unbroken face. Most surfcraft can cut back and rollercoaster in similar ways in the pocket. Seems like only a mat move down the line in that unique way, and it's SO addictive.
I remember an uncrowded moment at a long point break, catching a wave from the outside and jamming down the line... About halfway through a guy on a shortboard began paddling for it in front of me, straining and grunting as they do. I caught up to him, said "Hello" at conversational volume, and kept speeding along.

I didn't look back to see if he caught it.
