Dean Vandewalle // Indo Azul - video

More jealousy inducing imagery from Dean Vandewalle. Deano is a 14-year-old grom who was born in Belgium, raised in Costa Rica, and now spends most of his time in the Mentawais. How's your suburban Oz cultivation stack up against that?

Yeah, there's a few air revs in here - what teenager doesn't wanna jump? - but it also includes plenty of size, including double-overhead Rifles. One of those sessions, according to filmmaker Justis St John, old' Deano had the place to himself.

Cue more jealousy...

"no matter how good you are there is always a kid somewhere half your age with twice your talent".....unknown

....or in my case a third my age and more than three times my talent. That kids ripping.

This is depressing, the kids young, rips and charges and also lives in arguably the best spot on earth for world class quality waves.

And the vid was sick well shot, variety of different waves and decent sound track.

Is rifles just about the sweetest right-hander in the world?

God I'd love to surf that wave, it's so me.

Good vid... little bastard;)

The kid rips! Yes it does suck getting old. But you're never to old to give it a nudge!

Good luck to the kid but could I just ask for some footage of him getting absolutely flogged to make me feel better.

As I sit here out of action this weekend with a stuffed neck, fast approaching mid-century, that comment Cookie made me chuckle (ouch, my neck!). I'll third that.
