It’s a strange feeling to
experience vertigo on the
water. Not just your average
run-of-the-mill vertigo, but
the intense about-to-plunge-
into-an-abyss variety.
Refl ections from above
blended with the shimmering
images below, and I couldn’t
tell what was stone and what
was a play of water and light.
Sheer sandstone cliffs soared
above my head and plunged
into the crystalline depths be-
low my board. I might as well
have been gliding through the
air. I attempted to balance
the desire to stare in every
direction with the need to
calm my trembling legs. And
the silence was absolute.
