		<description>It’s interesting to hear language around promoting open and “free” use of the commons/nature/rivers, yet turn around and base the heart of it on patents. Why create an artificial wall around ideas and possibly collect or enforce tolls around them with artificial scarcity via a “patent” (i.e. monopoly) that restricts wave tech (or anything for that matter)?</description>

		<description>Oh shit I guess I skimmed through your babble. You even sight your degrees, what a self absorbed ass. And I was wrong, you grew up in La Jolla it appears. Truly one of the worst communities of elitiest on earth both on land and even worse in the water. 
Noam Chomsky said &quot;You wanna find critical thinkers? Go to the prisons.&quot; 
The context was that the majority of idiots with masters degrees and Phds are not critical thinkers, they are sheep and this is why they can endure the bullshit taught from kindergarten on. Its the individuals in prison who have spoken up from the start, only to be cast out and then locked up for their audacity to challenge the status quo. And at the root of all this your hero Seal. Why would he feel the need to attack my work? I am the first to express my writing is erratic and amateur and that I lack the formal education to express much of my work in the manner it deserves. But if leaders in the fields of fluid dynamics and hydraulic engineering could grasp my explanations enough to hire me or work with me and help me vet my  work then it&#039;s pretty clear someone was able to see past their PhD based egos. The fact that I have shared my work openly free of charge not seeking to profit from it but rather to offer it to the world hoping it can better the world should have spoken more to him than anything else. And before my reply with curse words and graphic shock value satire was posted, all I had written about in my article was the truth about my work and deeply spiritual place it originated from. It was your hero Seal who choose to degrade my work bevause it didnt mesh with his Kenpo/Yoga view. So who is the real &quot;boy&quot;? Who is the hater? Who are the entitled misguided judgmental individuals here? I suggest you go back to school and take a class on stoicism. And once again STFU.</description>

		<description>And you are not kupuna to me, please don&#039;t disrespect the meaning of the word. I may of been a boy when you were passionate surfers but you are still a boy now that I am a man who is passionate about people, waves and the beautiful pastime of surfing. You are kupuna to no one or so it would appear from your online persona.</description>

		<description>God I just read your whole reply. You even sighted how seal and you were ripping and the era and all that garbage. What a clown. And you even use the word royalty related to surfers. You&#039;re an idiot. And the reason I experince so much aloha in Hawaii is because I live it all the time. But just like in Hawaii I apply a simple rule &quot;Aloha is free. So is cracks. So no get nuts.&quot; Your guru Seal is an asswipe, at least online he is. The fact that he puts his judgement unto my yoga practice or my wave designs speaks for his lack of understanding to all things &quot;yoga&quot;. And La Jolla is a bunch of dickheads, similar to you. Backcounty blah blah blah. Like a I said. Come visit my shop. Meet my people. See my life. Stop trying cast your bullshit on my life...that you read about online. And listen ass clown. I was very kind to the 15yr old. Read the reply. Because unlike you that kid isn&#039;t a self righteous idiot searching for what&#039;s wrong in the world according to a entitled attitude rooted in the self diluted perspective that your generation is the one that. Is the most aware and revolutionary. Kick rocks dumb ass! Where did you grow up? What did your parents do for a living? I bet I can guess all of it spot on. What Orange County? Way upper middle class or above? What did you inherit other than your entitled vixtim/savior reality.  Clown.</description>

		<description>Listen Dipshit Don P

If you pulled your head out of your ass you would see the reply was to Seal Morgan the adult....who has been teaching Kenpo for 30yrs. 
Now beyond you being a retard with no hope of redemption we will assume that you also have no sense of satire. 
And because you have no life I imagine the only contact with the world is via the internet but if you ever venture out of your cave please stop by my barbershop so all the blacks, gays, trans-waterevers and the rest of the non white entitled males like your punk ass come for a haircut, bad advice, safe haven and some un-PC humor. Do your research mister butt fuck fuck face defender. Its so simple to figure out what is real and what isn&#039;t when your not a dumb fuck who hasn&#039;t done shit with your life other than be a self righteous dip shit. Now I didn&#039;t finish your reply before I wrote this but I will humor you and go back and finish it but I am also I prophet....hence my name...and I predict it will just be more dumbfuck butt fuck dickhead victim saviour my balls are owned by my wife and her boyfriend cry baby bullshit . FYI dumb ass, my place in river surfing is related to what I&#039;ve done not my stratigic plan to be &quot;the godfather&quot; of river surfing. I don&#039;t like most surfers, whether in the ocean or the river. Most are a bunch fake ass sheep who&#039;s ideals shift ass quickly and easily as the peaks at Ocean Beach. Whatever I am or am not matters most to my family &amp; friends and what you are or are not doenst matter to me at all. 

Now I challenge to reach out to any number of the &quot;minorities&quot; that make up my family &amp; friends to figure out what I stand for before you jump back on your high horse(Prius)with your stupid Patagonia jacket on to voice your dumbass opinion. Where do you live? Bend? Boise?

Also stop by my shop and pick up one of my bestselling t-shirts, &quot;Fuck White People&quot; is printed right in the chest. I was inspired to create the shirt for ass clowns like you. 

Now go back to your Google news and get upset about politics and SHUT THE FUCK UP! 

Aloha Mack

		<description>Congratulations Eli,
You have put your narcissism, misogynism, homophobia, and with the addition of this &quot;erection” comment altogether deranged perspectives out so the whole of the river surfing world to see past the myth: The emperor not only has no clothes, he’s sporting an erection.  Since this involves a young person, I’m going to make a bit of “claim” of my own.  I recently retired as an educator with Bachelors and Masters of Science degrees, plus 35 years of teaching and leadership that included regional, state, national, and globally respected professional accomplishments.  Educators know that you cannot be Dr. Jekyll sappy sweet with a young person, and then in the same string turn Mr. Hyde spewing the f-bomb and bile all over someone else just because they disagree with you.  Regardless of age, anyone with an ounce of common sense can read right through your kind of hypocrisy.
I was one of Seal’s martial arts students for years, and we always had lots of women in his classes.  Many were middle aged or senior citizens, but regardless of who they were we would never have described any of them as “sweaty chicks”.  The women studied under him because Seal not only taught a rock solid &quot;street&quot; form of self-defense, but more importantly a philosophy of awareness, evasion, deflection, disengagement, and above all restraint against violence.  Everyone was treated with respect.  It would never have occurred to any of us guys to have erections in class.  That&#039;s just unhinged.  You clearly have paid zero attention to what&#039;s happening with the #MeToo movement globally.  I bet young surf has, as his generation will no doubt be the men who bury your kind of thinking.
You flaunt your accomplishments here in Hawai‘i, often signing off with the Hawaiian value &quot;Aloha.&quot;  In other posts you&#039;ve felt obliged to pin yourself to Hawaiian surf royalty and propagate a stereotypic view of their behavior toward others.  I have lived and worked for almost 30 years in predominantly Hawaiian communities, including decades in partnership and in the employ of native Hawaiian programs serving Hawaiian families and their youngest and most vulnerable children.  I might offer some insight: It does not surprise me that you experienced aloha from native Hawaiians, but the more appropriate response in light of your laughably short stay here would be the Hawaiian value &quot;Ha‘aha‘a&quot;, the value of humility and modesty.  
By the 1960s and early 1970s Seal and I had lived within blocks of those same La Jolla reef breaks that you glorify.  He was a standout ripper there, attended La Jolla High School, and not long thereafter moved to O‘ahu to surf the heavies.  He lived near Sunset Beach not far from where I have lived, worked, and surfed these last nearly 30 years.  When you were making teenage incursions into La Jolla to surf Big Rock, we were grown men in our thirties river surfing and snowboarding in Wyoming and Utah.  In Hawai‘i, kūpuna are honored elders who have acquired sufficient life experience to be of counsel, particularly in periods of growth and change.  We were first-generation short-board surfers, outlaw skateboarders, and backcountry snowboarders before you were born.  We were passionate river surfers while you were still a boy.  We are kūpuna to you.  Show some respect.

		<description>For the KenpoYogi Master 

Kenpo Not consistent with the yoga you teach? Ba ha ha! 
Now unlike my support for the young brother &quot;surf&quot; I would just share a &quot;shut the fuck up&quot; with you. 

Honestly all the other shit you said wasn&#039;t even worth a response...the claiming of Lunch Counter...but the whole Kenpo/Yoga shit is just to hilarious. 

Now before I adress the Karate Kid Bullshit , please go online and research the work I did with MWDG just so you can know for yourself you don&#039;t really know what your talking about regarding waves. 

Ok now for your fucking Cobra Ki Are

The yoga I have done is heated and I like the sweaty chicks in the class. I have had major shifts in my life during my practice and I&#039;ve also had erections. So I think my yoga is way cooler than yours. 

As far as that Kenpo crap goes. I really hope you have updated beyond chopping bricks and wrapping bandanas around your head. 

Just like ive alwsys done, I put myslef out there front and center. With waves or yoga or a good NHB fight. 

I don&#039;t know who you are but if you see me surfing anywhere please feel free to ask for a bout to test your Kenpo against my skills. I&#039;ll leave out what I train in cuz repping my training on here would be almost as gay as you repping yours.

Now go back to Lunch Counter, break some boards with your five finger butt fuck death punch while doing you downward dog shit and shut the fuck up. 

Aloha

		<description>Hey buddy this is Elijah Mack. Thanks for commenting and please enjoy being 15, its a great age. Yes my writing is very erratic. And yes sheet flows &amp; hydraulic jumps work together with a perfect balance. This is what I&#039;m trying to explain relating to the flowrider. Listen if you are 15yrs old and into this stuff by all means keep it up and just follow your intuition. Best of luck to you young brother!

		<description>surf: Never apologize for your observations and insights because you are young! Age has NOTHING to do with being right.  I know plenty of much older folk that equate age with wisdom.  They have the years, but show very little of the latter. Though they talk a good story, they really aren&#039;t walking the walk.  Ego so often gets in their way.

Always remember the parable of the little boy who saw that the emperor had no clothes...and said so.  He was correct, while everybody else stayed silent. Those older people were afraid to say anything since, after all, kings can yell &quot;off with their heads!&quot;  Here on Riverbreak.com not so much...we can speak our thoughts.

You aren&#039;t the only one who found this writing to be a rather disjointed collection of unrelated parts. Anyone else bother to look up &#039;Acquired Savant Syndrome?&#039; I did. Hmmmm. I found this piece rather...pieced together to be honest. I&#039;m still shaking my head over the picture of Yoga chakra points mixed in with concrete dams.  It left me wondering WTF?  Not consistent with the meditation and Yoga principals I&#039;ve taught to my Kenpo students over these last 30 years...

But back to the wave thoughts:
In the late 80s after a surf session on Lunch Counter DP and I would be sitting on the rocks trying to warm our numb bodies (wetsuit tech is SO much better now!) and wondering about the chances of surfing a river wave that threw a lip that made a tube.  As decades-long ocean surfers, we knew that barrels require very shallow water.  Picture a less-experienced surfer locked into the wave&#039;s lip and pitched head first into very shallow water.  It seems doubtful that city or county administrators would grant a permit to modify bottom contours in ways that suggest so great a liability risk.

You obviously have some insights on wave mechanics that shows you certainly have sat and thought about the problems inherent in artificial wave building. Keep on doing that, let your creative juices flow! A majority of the keenest insights and inventions are from people under 30... fresh young minds when the juices are flowing seem to be our species most creative time of life.
