I'm grooving on this photo. That's OBX Bill of the mighty Bill's OBX Beach Life blog, bending it most interestingly while throwing a goiter. Bill tells the Puffin "Yea, the mast is in the soup, and I believe the mast/sail flutter is caused by the loose leech and lighter wind/rig momentum on the inside during the sesh." I originally thought the mast might be in the sand, as it sure looks shallow to me, but his OBXness says no.
There many more photos worth taking a look at in Bill's post. The above shot is by Keith McCulloch.
Very cool....where are your sponsors? You could at least hawk hats.

It's amazing how much pressure the mast can take.
