Partly awestruck and fully fatigued, Twig recalls the big Mex swell while reclining on a lounge, shirt unbuttoned. “I had a barrel this morning that would’ve been the barrel of my life. It spat so hard that I got blown off my board.” 

"That's my fondest memory of the swell."

Scary. Imagine being pinned on the bottom with the vest on.
