Difficult clip to watch, and I lost count on the number of times the scene was clipped so it didn't show him stacking the landing. In saying that there were some pretty cool moves in there. I'm happy enough when I get going strapless on flat water!

Thanks Johnno........love it, don't you just want a young bod again......fark! Went for a surf today....so much hard work.........poooped.

I feel sorry for them too. Poor little guys.

OK nice troll, I will bite for you.

1. He's hooked in and going upwind every single air.
2. That Gangstarr song is the most played out song possibly ever, you especially know you can't use a song if Dre has used it in one of his own videos, so minus a million points just for that.
3. What's so special about this vid? He landed a couple of straight airs upwind and hooked in? Am I missing something.
4. The whole thing was shot on GoPro, minus another million points.

I'ts great to see guys like this pushing the sport along (it did seem to get stuck there for a while with the same old handlepass stuff , no disrespect to the riders intended its bloody hard and I don't do it but its just seems to be the same old same old ) it would be great to see some unstrapped big air stuff on vids ad at comps
On the downside why do the clips always have crap gangsta rap music ?.If they're gona use it they should at least check out s.mouse

Ok for your first point. Am I missing something? would you like to tell me how exactly this is "pushing the sport"? because I really don't see it. Please tell me how Up-wind airs hooked in are also not "same old same old"... Because they are, and they are ridiculously easy, a lot easier than doing any sort of "handlepass" as you put it.
Also would you like to explain how it "got stuck for a while"? haha.
It didn't get stuck, progression just started to slow down like in any sport, that is just what happens.

Also as for the song choice, yes it was a very stupid choice of song, but if you can't appreciate a Guru song, possibly one of the all time best there's something wrong with you. All styles of music are good in my opinion, as long as it's not corny ass country and western.

ok I'll bite .Ok granted there are better vids out there of guys doing untrapped air,wavering etc but its still good to see and thougt I would make a comment about moving forward on this post (my apologies i sould have commented earlier on something cooler , yeah yeah ,I ear ya its edited so tht all the crappy bits are edited out where he falls over )
'Got stuck" well you explained it for me

You guys are missing the point apart from Gruzi, when you are like me and 45 years old, well past your prime, seeing a video that looks like a lotta fun in ****ty 2 ft surf and is WAY past my personal skills on a surfboard. He looks like my 11 yeear old son on his skate board doing ollies and push its, hey and I can't do those either anymore, the concrete gets way, way harder with age.

I don't reckon this kid is trying to push anything, I reckon he is just having alot of fun in crap conditions

^^ 45..... I wish.
I may never be able to do half the stuff some of the kids are doing but Im sure gunna have fun trying.

I don't know... the 30knot kite loops hurt more these days than they used to...

Neat vid, thanks for sharing.

As others have said I definitely prefer to see the landing (or lack thereof) for tricks. It confirms the riders stuck it otherwise always gives a few giggles...

Prepare for crash landing, I love my crashes I been saving them and I am going to make a complete how to eat **** video soon.
