I was at a spot down close to SI yesterday and caught a few nice waves between 2-4.  Towards the end of my session I was really tired and having trouble getting into waves.  I moved inside a little and did OK getting on the shoulder, but when I tried to take off on the peak I got thrashed...hard.  Other than paddling harder, does anyone have any advice for making a wave that goes critical pretty quick?  My spanking was one of those scary moments where I was in freefall and my board was twisting below me and I landed on my board, fins down thank God.   I really hate ending a session like that.
