The strong winds and a king high tide had the jet skiers out practicing their dare devil tricks on the Mooloolabah coast.
The rider powers head-on into the breaking wave and then flips up and backwards, rotating around the rear of the craft.
There were some impressive aerials (that I missed capturing! LOL), and some impressive 'stacks', but fortunately no injuries.
This is the 2nd frame of the flip, frame 1 is at http://365project.org/ltodd/extras/2011-12-26.

@glendq thanks - yes I think they are all very fit, and I see when I zoom in they use an 'underhand' grip on the handlebars - must be to make it less like likely to let go when they are upside down.
that person must have incredible strength and eye sight
excellent shot
