Don't think there's a forum thread for random surf clips to share...so here goes.

Kirra on song above.

And a ruthless burn by Occ.

Dingo would be proud.

Those Kirra waves can be brutal!

zenagain Monday, 8 Feb 2021 at 08:08 am

More so than an Ex-pro when a camera is around?

Great footage of KS at smoking Honolua Bay. Really get a sense of how the sections wedge, wrap, and bowl.

Footage is from 2016.

san Guine Monday, 8 Feb 2021 at 08:21 pm

His read on Honolua is definitely preternatural!

tango Monday, 8 Feb 2021 at 09:17 pm

I'd claim that too.

That is a great perspective Westy. I like how the wave takes on all comers and wins at 1:12.

Came across a wave at Skeleton Bay from Koa Smith...

KS riding a concave deck Creature.

Island Bay Monday, 15 Feb 2021 at 01:11 pm

Probably my favourite North Shore wave to watch - and where I'd like to surf my 6'10 DS.

And does Malia M have good teeth or wha?!?

udo Monday, 15 Feb 2021 at 03:45 pm

Smooth as Silk . . . Aussie Rob

Island Bay Monday, 15 Feb 2021 at 04:03 pm

That was surprisingly good. He has aged well.

velocityjohnno Monday, 15 Feb 2021 at 04:34 pm

That Kirra footage above was mental WOL

Looking more like Shane Powell all the time.

Fair assessment. Reckon the pitch that he's AI incarnate owes more to hair colour and the sticker on the nose of his board than anything else. AI was raw and had an uncanny ability to improvise, EE is smooth and polished.

Blowin Tuesday, 16 Feb 2021 at 10:44 am

I always based the comparison with AI on the searing down carve. AI might have need raw at times but in good , perfect waves he was also silky smooth with that particular drawn out carve out of the lip. He took a different line than other carvers such as Parko and Hoyo and Ewing looked like he’d made it his own.

That and the arm placement and bottom turn poise.

John John Florence .Wave of the Winter?

udo Tuesday, 16 Feb 2021 at 05:14 pm

Jeeezus..
freeze it at 13 secs JJs casual enough to do the Bugs hands behind

Pops Tuesday, 16 Feb 2021 at 05:15 pm

that made me think of that old doctored footage of shaun thompson (i think?) where they looped a bit of the footage to make it look longer...

indo-dreaming Tuesday, 16 Feb 2021 at 06:59 pm

This girls surfing is insane and only 13, absolutely charges, big barrels, and proper airs, and some of those turns are pretty good, full on tail blast.

Imagine what she could be in another few years when she goes pro (expect not yet at 13)

The mind wobbles. Amazing.

goofyfoot Friday, 19 Feb 2021 at 01:40 pm

99% of commited surfers will never in their lives get one wave that comes close to the 50 he got in just one swell.
That’s so ridiculous

Supafreak Sunday, 7 Mar 2021 at 01:46 pm

Sure is a fun wave at this size.

Island Bay Sunday, 7 Mar 2021 at 02:55 pm

I've watched that about 15 times. So good it almost hurts.

Roll-ins aren't bad either:
