first wipeout is horrifying
That's one clip you don't want to be in.
Cringe Gasp and respectful laugh from me.
when you see Russ eating shit like that you know it must be loose!
Such a knob, but a cool vid.
Could not agree more, rooftop. Can't stand his selfie-style commentary. He can't get enough of himself.
But non-the-less, great footage.
You do realise that’s the only reason he’s able to fly around the world chasing waves fully funded by others. If he was an introvert then there’s no way that would happen.
Going hard as. Paddle wise some absolute beatings looking for gold. Pro's Pushing it in paradise. Bigger and thicker. What a wave. Pretty nuts seeing the bar constantly being pushed out there. Pro's Gotta be keen, really keen.(they sure get around) The makes will be epic as usual, gold standard assured. Heavy progression. Shane Ackerman in his element.
At a wave like this that it is so hotly contested as stated it must be very hard for riders to get in the flow, and get their wave count up as the session unfolds. Allot of pressure in an already heavy situation. Wonder how many waves are taken out of frustration or desperation in regards to positioning and cost of getting there? Locals are going to have priority but outside of that the tension mounts. Riders that are more than capable or are in a better position may not even get a look in such hotly congested line ups, such is the demand. How much dominance do pro teams have or roving packs of large countries in such situations? Hope Russel the love muscle got some in a tight line up.
Ackerman is a deadset nutter
With a change on Government is it possible to we can legislate against slowmo? Maybe Zali can bring a bill to the house.
i find his stuff some of the best on the interweb (his COVID ments footage is epic).
i think he is probably very astute and knows how to make clips that get hits. he appeared quite humble in Tim's ASMF clip, and he genuinely acknowledges the locals here.
Agree. I don't mind NVR at all. Seems like a decent fella and can't take anything away from him regarding charging. He's proven that he'll pretty much go anything.
Hes a frother alright but he walks the talk....heavy wipeouts.....and no one died ..good result
I like all of Nic’s videos. Great surfer. Good immersive vids. I like his froth. It’s ok to be excited.
Didn’t see a single gath.
That was heavy.
‘Ok my boiiizzzzz’ (NVR, 2022)
Crazy the lack of protection out there
Eimeo had a few go downs. Fuck they go hard
Yeah how he got back on the horse is unbelievable.
Yea somehow that looked even nastier than usual…
Russ must of got proper winded landing on his back…. Followed by pure horror. Still can’t fathom how crew walk away from shit like that.
Poto going for the jet ski barrel, awesome footage
cheers for putting that up sprout
