"Really cool wave"..... ya think Shane O_o
Really highlights the different perspective of surfers. How many of us have ever surfed a wave like that or even seen a wave like that in real life ? I 've surfed some solid waves but never in my life have I had the chance or desire to take off on a beast like that one.
For Dorian it's a cool wave ,for me it's completely out of reach and I am more than happy to sit on the beach and watch .
I've never met Shane Dorian but everything I see & hear about this bloke just lifts my spirits. He seems to be so humble amidst his environment in charging huge waves. A bloody legend & a great ambassador for surfing in general.
unbelievable wave. wish i could get blown off my feet by the spit of a barrel...
