    The real MVP for not playing music over the footage. Nice.

      I agree... awesome to see just raw footy and LOVE the commentary too!

      @jonnywinter8080 5 лет назад

      I agree too. It's so nice to have no wind here on the coast and so still; you can hear the silence over the waves like in the footage.

    The guy on the inside at 5.00 was ripping considering he had to dodge the drop in. Congrats on the footage, its a great record of pumping bells.

    Love that’s there’s no music and just the sound of the ocean with some authentic cameraman banter. I wish there were more clips done like this.

  • @deanclements1839
    @deanclements1839 5 лет назад +13

    Bells is one of the only waves that can make some of these incredibly out of this world talented surfers look human. Extremely difficult wave to surf and definitely deserves its place on the world tour for that reason.

    • @nomadhabit

    • @joaoluna6281
      @joaoluna6281 5 лет назад +11

      I agree in part with you, but using the term "brazilian" to refer to a kind of surf you don't like it's not fair. This helps the stupid online surf community to spread the hate between Brazil, Hawaii, US, Australia, etc. And this is totally the opposite on what surf has been here for. JJF, Julian Wilson, Seth Moniz and many more are going above the lip for the sake of the innovation and progressive surfing. It would be so boring watching big arcs all day. Why not big arcs, aereo, tubes and more? 720 rotation will be the next big turn. This happened in the skate too. Try to spread the "online peace and good practice" instead. Tokio Olimpic games next year, and our surf will be there for the first time, be conscious! All the best ;)
