Hard to say why. Could be the meter was running on the expensive helicopter and videographer doing the fly overs and they were worried about board retrieval delays? They can have ripping tidal currents in some of the cuts over there, didn't notice any of those however. In distance races in waves some use them but it is best to avoid jumping, not so in this case. Also, it was a simple surfboard leash too, don't know if he used a weak link either. Anyone understand French, is this a trailer for a longer video?
