This channel deserves more reach

No talk about style makes surfing easier to understand and achived. Makes it easier to sell to the masses. This is why style is not in the wls judgment criteria.

Hi uncle mike

Hello Dear , Your video is really excellent. But I noticed that there are some issues in your videos: there are no video tags, no tag volume, no keywords, no keywords in description, no ranked tag, your SEO score is very low, that’s why you are not getting more views, more subscribers and more likes. So your video is not reaching out to the people. If you want your video to reach out to the people and improve it then you can trust me. As a digital marketer and SEO expert, I can help you grow your RUclips channel organically. If you want, we can have a meeting about your RUclips channel problems and how to solve them. I am waiting for your response. Thank You. you know keywords is very important for your video to reach out to people

Not interested in performance short boarding at all. I don’t mind watching free surfers like Mason Ho but WSL is boring. I love nose riding, cheater 5 etc… haven’t hang 5 or 10 yet but i have come close. I dropped to 7’ Scorpion II which allows me to do some nose riding plus get in some tighter turns and its heaven to ride plus no matter the conditions it works for me.

As in surfing, also in life

Boards that fit the wave conditions

There’s shortboard with less rocker and more volume Plus hp short boarding is the most beautiful art not soul arching on a twin fin. Guys like mason ho rip twinnies Idk why RUclips recommended this but this is a good reminder to wear sunscreen

Mikey February & Torren Martyn Picasso & Dali

When an experienced surfer chooses a mid length I think that in itself is a statement of surfing as an art over surfing as a sport. There’s no contests for mid lengths even if you wanted to.

Good food for thought. 👍

Funny, I ride a DT 7'6 egg and this is the best board for me. Maybe because I snowboard ... ? I love the feeling, this board is easy, smooth, it do what I want with sofness and class, always at the right speed. I feel like it rides itself like if it knows what to do. I mostly ride from the center of the board. This is a great and deep feeling.

I think what Devon gets at around 30: 30 is also what makes good live rock and roll music (the best jazz and blues too). Riding the razor’s edge - it could all come undone and turn into a pile of poop, but it hangs in there and while it does, presents the audience with a glimpse of something beyond the component parts. 😎

I swear I’ve listened to almost all off your podcasts and didn’t realize you were on RUclips!! Lololo

What a great conversation. Thanks guys!

Brilliant guys. 🤙

i can't believe you got to fingers, but not hair

Rob Machado and Blair Conklin have the best style IMHO. I've been told I have a nice relaxed style by random surfers some were surf coaches out with students but I hate the way I look in my tiny amount of 3rd person footage. I've only been surfing 2.5 years 2-3x a week. Maybe they see potential that I can't. 🤷‍♂️

10 minutes in and it’s just getting started maybe.

how about just stfu and surf??????????????

A lot of newer surfers sabotage their chance to develop style when they jump to a shorter board only after a year of surfing. Most of these beginners are so stubborn in that way that it degrades any chance to look good and smooth while performing the basics of surfing.

You can see a major correlation between cool aesthetics and enjoyment. I feel like when you have fun your “style” is apparent. Not when focus is placed on trying to look like someone. I hate seeing my wackness but I have fun. When I’m enjoying it is when Ive heard positive things from random others.

Stephanie Gilmour has great style.

You forgot Step 1 for using Surfline properly... go into Settings and change the 'Surf Ratings Colors' back to Classic. It's the most important step. Red = 'flat' because of a traffic light??! Just because Surfline kookslammed the colors doesn't mean we need to follow them.

Kookin' it for 20 years now, but when I see Torren Martin And Mikey February I see beauty and pure art. Sure, Medina, Ferreira and JohnJohn are beyond this world, but the former inspire me relentlessly. Happy to hear Devon mentioning those two more than once. Great channel and I'm baffled you only have 693 subscribers!

Many different types of surfers and surfing, but mainly the Jocks and the Artists. The jocks conform to the wsl and the point system and surf for judges. 99% of them, they're surfing is contrived and predictable, they pretty much all look the same, I mean even their hair cuts are that of the conformed society that's like the Hitler short hair look thing, all good if that makes them happy, after all one must be happy in what they're doing or eventually they will become down and depressed. Thee other is the Artist you can tell by what they're riding and they're appearance, they are just being their own unique finger print, just being themselves, and conforming to what THEY see best for their life, not to mention the boards they ride. Then there's the $$ thing, that really does change surfing and people, and wait there's a new one it's called clicks and "look at me! look at me!" ie: Social Media... I mean take Beefs tv or whatever lol bs. Do you really think they would be doing their circus clown act sh-t at any hard core spot if they weren't video taping for YT? I mean what a circus act! "LOOK AT ME!" *SUBSCRIBE!!!* Now if people did that on a daily basis before YT I wouldn't say a word but they didn't it's all about seeking attention. There was a time in surfing where style was everything, now most everything is an attention seeking look at me circus act trying to attain points, subscribers and clicks $$. It is what it is. Thank The Good Lord above SOMEBODY is bringing up *style!* ( Sorry long winded, but had to VENT. )

I could listen to Devon all day...

“Speed power flow”, isn’t style the “flow” part when judging competition surfing? So it’s already being considered as a judging criteria?

Style = flow state. That space where there is no conscience effort but a happening and connection in the moment and in this case the wave. It requires mastery. When you first start doing something, like driving a car, it requires conscience effort. Eventually the how fades into the background and it becomes a happening. That’s when the flow and style occur.

Criminally underrated channel. Thanks for all the hard work. Please keep it up.

man made a whole video to hate for no reason…

Honestly, simply no! Eventhough it is not part of the actual wave that was ridden, Medinas relaxed body position in combination with the surreal position of the board are simply stunning, also considering his unmatched domination on this wave. Imo this photo shows a lot that surfing is about especially the insane fascination I have for this sport.

Nah

shutup bro

Couldn't agree more. Gabriel is good, but in a fair match-up JJF rules and he isn't such claim goon.

Bitter Mastery

Haha you're just jealous😂🎉😂

Contest Kickout claims for an extra point incoming😂

Bro, it's just about the AURA. I am a surfer too, but it impossible to deny this is the GREATEST photo of the olympics.

Sigh… can’t you just enjoy the world enjoying surfing with you mate?

It’s about how unique of a photo it is. The average person has seen tons of photos like the second one you showed. “Deep in the barrel” shots have been on magazine covers, posters, billboards, ads etc for decades. It doesnt catch the average persons eye like a guy hitting a victory pose mid air with a surfboard in tow.

White dudes are scared of the non white surfers taking over their sport.😂

Lets not forget the... GLASSERS-SANDERS-FINISH COATERS-POLISHERS...I started in the Industry way back in 1976 as a 15yrs old in Cronulla...and now at 65 still give respect to ALL the processes...And still love riding self made - 5'-11'x 20'' x 2 3/8'' Flyer Swallow Tail Thrusters n Quads. Cheers.And get to share waves around here on the Tweed Coast with MARGOn MICAH.

just got a 6'2 vesper about to give it a up today 😍

My Swiss Army knife (quiver killer) is my 6’3” 7S SuperFish 4 I have a bunch of boards but that thing can surf in any conditions it’s epic! I ride mine as a quad.

All this talk about alternative boards, quivers and fin setups is great. However, not one mention of twinzer fin boards. You should try a twinzer, personally it’s the best fin setup. Saying that, I have never tried a bonzer. As for soft tops check out Helm Supplies they make very good soft tops

This is a great interview and needs a lot more love. Very fun listen

Found the app and surprised to get a ONE time charge not a subscription.❤
