Stoked Bodyboarders throw Shakkas to Patrice Chanzy on a SUP
Set to a gorgeous backing track, film maker Tim Pruvost has stitched together the best bits from an F-One sponsored SUP trip to Tahiti in this short film titled 'Just Supping Through'. He's blended some small wave footage of a super fun looking day, with some big wave action from a pumping Teahupoo, and the result is breathtaking.
You can't help but notice the stoke from two bodyboarders paddling out, as Patrice sets his rail in a solid overhead barrel; their arms held high with no animosity towards the stand up paddler what-so-ever. It's a real feel-good moment and the scene stands out from the rest, not because of the barrel, but from those two guys.
He most likely needed that bit of stoke, after the pounding he took on the wave before, where he almost made it. He was so close... Only to get sucked back over the lip by his board.
Check it out for a bit of mind surfing, and some warm and fuzzys from a great surfer in one of the most beautiful locations on earth.
