When a surfer drops into the tube, as the wave rolls forward, momentum pushes him down the wave towards the point it will break upon him and upset his ride. To prevent that, he "cuts it up" -- kicks his tail downwave, steering back upwave, so that the ride will last longer.
Like this -- see how he kicks upwave to stay away from the lip?
Not many are capped off by a gnarly 360, but this shows the idea.
Living close to Rincon,I used to drag a guitar down there sometimes, and get good jazz inspiration watches these crazy sonsabitches. Such is happiness, too.
