It clearly was, according to the standard outlined in the other thread. The commentators agree - I heard Shane, KS and Occy and one of the organiser guys on the stage at the end all using the same standard that I would use. Nothing to do with respect. 10-12' at the beginning of the event dropping to 6 feet at the end.
So obviously at least one person does have a problem with those kooks
. Funny stuff.
You can think of "feet" as "weird surfing height measurement feet" if it makes you feel better. But I'm pretty comfortable using the same system as the guys I mentioned earlier (and just about everyone else I've ever come across) and I'll continue to do so. You must get confused reading surf magazines/articles/watching videos/etc. For me, it's crystal clear.
