Thanks 6dunes, all these photos were taken with my 5D MkII + Canon 70-300 L.
All taken at 300mm hand-held then cropped as the surfers were a bit far from the beach..

This seems to prove once and for all that the 5D2 can be regarded as a decent choice also for action/sports shots.

Not of surfing, per se, but in Carlsbad, CA whilst on vacation I caught this young boy with surfboard in hand.

I know, I know, not as cool as some smoking hot girl catching a wave, but it was what I could shoot in front of my wife.
