March 2019 (ROTM#123) Dr Rip's 5 Best Rip Tips

Every summer I give community beach safety talks (although there's lots more than just beach safety in them) called The Science of the Surf for several Councils in Sydney. 

Randwick City Council was the first and I've enjoyed working with them for the last 15 years.  This year they put together this fantastic video based on my talk at Maroubra Beach with some incredible drone footage of rip currents and the following 5 Best Rip Tips:

  1.      Think

2.      White is NIce, Green is Mean

3.      Get Perspective

4.       Go With the Flow

5.      Watch the Dye

 What do they all mean? You'll have to watch the video!
