Hows the spit on that?
Be great to see foootage looking straight into the barrel , he was definitely “ blown away “ by that barrel.
Not your normal pro vid but I like Gary"s approach to growing old. Pretty inspiring,
Gary goes.
Bit more from Mr linden. (65 years old) Still looking for the one.
Take what you want from it. Always enjoy hearing and seeing crew go nuts. Again pretty motivational on what and how progressions are being made. Old vid but some cool perspectives on crew who have their confidence and ability down. It caught my attention due to the psychological aspect of surfing crew have been discussing lately.
Two vids for the crew who like the other side of the coin. WA Australian rider (Lewy) going mental only a young guy, who had good mentors who lead the way for a while. And (Amuery )french rider based in canaries and lives for this wave. Pushing it. Both pride videos by coincidence.
don't know my way around utube, replace this for Lewys. Some heavy ones, last wave detonates
Big Pete Mel on his Mavs Gun.
There's a bit of cheese with his son 'interviewing' him, but it's worth a watch. Good looking boards, and lots of mutual respect between father and son.
(Note extreme forward position of the front fins!)

The wave that sold a million surfboards:
Just watched that a few days ago and thought that it was really bad advertising for the Hypto. Granted it expanded the range of waves people considered it to be viable but it looked skittish and ugly. Put next to the stable Websters that Nasty Nate backhand tube Lord rides in the same session and they look hideous.
Terribly skittish, especially on the inside section, but the still photos were beguiling:

Stop me if you think you've heard this one before
Looks less skittish too.
Talk about beguiling photos, and also about the shortcomings of cyber surf media, and you can’t go past this photo you put on the Kelly and Shaun convo piece.
Take a fucken look at this thing!
People crack a fat over “ tail high “ airs , this is a tail high drop! The wave has gone full concave below him and his rail spray is free falling as surely as I’ve he’s jumped off a ledge.
But the control…
The hand on the rail and he’s spearing down into the abyss as the whole ocean leaps up around him. Unbelievable.
This is the sort of picture you’d stare at for ages if you came across it double spread in a print magazine. It didn’t even get a mention in the comments below the article on the internet.
Pretty sure that If I’d happened to pick that centre spread to mull up on back in the day, as was the style at the time, there’s a fair chance I’d have disappeared into a vortex of deep stoner thought, imagining and sensing every nuance of that drop , and been frozen in that position till the peak buzz gave way to overwhelming desire for munchies.
Anyway….got a cheap psychedelic germ ( Hypto descendant) in Bali and wasn’t a convert. It was back in the shop within a fortnight.
Meh.
Lauding the manhandling of inappropriate craft through nuts waves is all well and good. A bit of novel trickery.
Personally, I get my kicks seeing someone slay the dragon with a master crafted weapon designed for the task rather than something they’ve found under the house.
Talking about master-crafted weapons: Autumn's coming so I ordered two new boards on Saturday.
6'0" x 19 x 2 1/2 asymm quad
6'4" x 19 x 2 3/4 asymm quad
Both blood red.
Both from DP.
Pumped.

You must have a hotline to a higher power.
Anyone else ordered those boards now they’d be looking at gettthem by spring. Note : Not a smear on DP, just a reflection on wait time for customs in general these days.
Stunet did you like the edge board or not from PM..?you seem to be hooked on asymms....
udo love that shot of Munga...all time
Love the edge design, but only in my fish. Works better on a wider board.
Phil does a fair few of them on longboards and I could imagine the same principle working well on those.
@Blowin, Lot of the supply issues have been worked through, especially as demand dropped post-Xmas. Reckon I'll be getting mine a few days into the new season.
Latest Dane Reynolds' Chapter 11 thing. Not that good - few waves of Dane, few out of focus Pipe waves too - but maybe you're curious and/or procrastinating on this Monday morning:

There’s a few of these EE goofy clips floating around. The ones in slo mo are essential viewing for any goofy techniqueophiles out there.
Don't think there's a forum thread for random surf clips to share...so here goes.
