Two mornings on the Goldy: Thursday with a south-east swell brushing the points, and Saturday when an easterly infeed from the same low pressure system straightened the swell up.
Surfers, at least those recognised, include James Lewis, Toby Johnston, Shaun Martin, Chris Bennetts, while the goofy styling on the red and white rhino is evergreen Guy Ormerod.
"That board felt like the starting point for a new life."
The inner mechanics of Russell's mind.
Sniffing out the bounty on land and at sea.
From a day with a low wave count yet high consequence.
Like a hundred social media clips joined together but not on social media.
Seeking darkness on a sunny day.
And Matahi lifts the bar yet again.
Bite size humans in king size waves.

Footage very good, went to mute on the music. Liked the inclusion of rhino guy.
Guy Ormerod. There's a blast from the past!
Great to see locals of his vintage still getting the good ones and still styling.
Burleigh showing the love.

Gammy Ormerod yew....go old boy
Someone tell me why in God's name I moved to Sydney?
The food scene?
Deadmans?
Better footy teams?
Mardi Gras?

Who's the big bald guy on the longish board at 1:25? Is it Guy Ormerod? He's seriously ripping. Made my day.
Yep thats Guy..
When Guy was a Grom he didnt own a wetsuit and those winter westerley winds were cold
so he wrote a letter to Ripcurl saying it was bad Karma to let a young Grom Freeze....so they sent him one..
Claw Warbrick.
The bloke knows how to market his product as good as anyone. R.C would have got their money back on that move in spades.
Dead right Claw
How long was that board?....nice vid....
Geez, a few nice barrels in that one. Love a couple of hours out there.
Digging those longer boards. Think I remember him ripping Burleigh in blazing boards but with hair
Lots of shampoo bu no hair, haha, Kelly style...
