Watch: Conner Coffin // North Shore
More of what we've come to expect from Coffin: using his back hoof to drive the rails through long, clean arcs.

"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.

Very good.
JJF Take Note.....thats how to grow a Beard
Not Quite Wade Carmichael but were getting there
charging
Those cutbacks can be learned in your living room - Connor did a lot with Wavekey with Brad Gerlach and one of the moves he teaches is that body rotation carve (practiced on land).
Free option is to watch this video and repeat in front of TV all winter. Then paddle out at Backdoor in November, say hi to the boyz, grab the best peaks and just do 'em like Connor. Easy.
Nice - Packing a few extra Covid Kilos puts a bit more grunt into those hacks
Same with JJf Jack Robbo JW's surfing
I love his surfing and he seems to have his boards all sorted now with Jason as well. Great stuff.
love his rail work
He gave me heavy stink eye at Haleiwa showers dont know why so now strongly dislike.
Did you refuse to pick up the soap when he dropped it?
Looking like he's been in the good paddock but that's not a bad thing! Those full rail hacks are awesome. Is he on Jordy's dad's boards is that a different Smith?
He’s riding a JS...maybe Smith optics? Are they still around?
Love his surfing n seems like he’s got a measure of humility not always common for young talented athletes with the world at their feet... seems to be adding to his big wave capabilities - but I wonder if can ever push for world titles as I’ve never seen him go to the air - seems a bit of a shame that’s necessary but that’s progress I think
That last wave. So sick. I could hang up my boots after that and retire a happy surfer.
Top notch rail game. Great to see no airs.
