Bobby Martinez // Whatever Beach - video

Stu Nettle (stunet)
Swellnet Dispatch

Tennis, anyone? Pro surfing's most entertaining agitator tears apart his home beach, and home pointbreak, in this cracking highlights clip. Those lightning backside reos - not sure if that's the right term now Joe Turpel is in the booth - are still amongst the best in the world, and that's despite being off tour for four years.

Could easily still mix it with the best on tour.

Super stylish as well. He keeps is centre of gravity low with very little flaying of arms and legs. The classic pocket rocket great stuff and I wish he was still in there stirring it up a bit. Joe seems a really nice fella but we need a little bit of paying out on one another, you know your being a wanker Joe. Very un US thing to do but extremely Australian.

I remember him being a real wanker on the tour but that was a sweet clip. So much style on the back hand, he's looking so relaxed. And how was that last barrel at the end.

I wish my backhand was half as good as Bobby's. Always been a fan. I feel bad for what happened to him, though I suppose that is what you get for biting the hand that feeds you.
