Surfing

Surfers, what is the worst etiquette violation you’ve ever experienced/ biggest clash you’ve ever had with someone in the lineup?

An older local dude dropped in on me (after I had already been up and riding for a while) and basically shoved me off my board. My leash snapped and I had to swim all the way in to get my board. On my way back out he was sitting in the channel waiting for me and started cussing me out and threatening to kill me if he saw me paddle for one more wave. I had been surfing that spot every day for like 2 years and hadn’t seen him once. Haven’t seen him at that spot ever since.
