This went along with the clip....


Apologies in advance, this is the first clip I have ever really edited or made.
I usually take photos but on this day I switched over to video a few waves and wish I had filmed more.
On a road trip from Noosa to Sydney, Alongside Jimmy lees, Thomas Robinson, Jared Mell, Harrison Roach and Ryan Heywood, We stopped off in Angourie for a couple of nights.
This clip contains a few waves of Bryce Young, Harrison and Jared. Again I wish I had shot some more.

If that's his first go at video he should do some more cause that's a well put together clip.




So what's people thoughts on finless / alaia surfing. Do you like it?

Nice

I much prefer watching that sort of stuff than watching shortys do circus trix.

Easy to watch, liked the music, kind of dreamy. I'd like to try finless surfing, but as I surf in the city, I don't want to risk running over some poor sap.

Funny how the only people who seem to ride finless boards and the like are pros/semi pros and those people who spend most of their life in the surf. Those of us who get to surf very little and very rarely in good waves do not have time to waste learning to ride and constantly falling off finless boards and the like - waves to me are too rare and too precious to dick around on.

Dale Chapman made a finless board, he said he loved riding it.

I took one look at it and said "you know how to make this thing go really well?, put some fins in it".

He did and it went better than before.


Point of the story, why slide when you can drive?

Yeah I agree to me looks a bit weird but still good to watch.

BigSpazz hynd is a freak on the finless things we need some photos.

Yeah that's it, it's high quality surfing no matter how ŷou view it...... it's Jbay, a lot of good surfers would struggle to make that with fins, and he blows tail and rail and 360s in the lip.... Ffff reek..
