    Welcome legends, to Africa. I'm 50 years old, have a custom made Mini-Mal surfboard. I have lived less than 60 minutes away from J-bay all my life and have never paddled out at Super-tubes on it. I suddenly feel inspired. Thank you for the awesome surfing content, as always. ;)

    best vid of the skeleton lineup i've seen.... seems true to life about the variable conditions & gets me pumped to try my luck! stoked to see the full arsenal of the modern Hawaiian watermen in effect- the odd mix of things that make Maui what it is has given the rest of the world a rapid development of surf technologies that we all get to benefit from. 🤙

      Namibia is definitely a spooky and fascinating place. Not sure exactly where these fellas went-but they are surfing on what used to be known as “the Skeleton Coast”! You can imagine how much shipping traffic had to sail these waters, rounding the Cape. Before the Suez Canal opened in 1869, all ships coming from Asia or Australia to Europe sailed up this coast. And the poor souls who got shipwrecked there could walk for 100s of miles and not find a single ounce of fresh water. Only the dunes of the Kalahari. That’s where the name comes from. If you go to more remote areas of the coast, you can still find the rusted out hulls of old freighters or tankers that got beached! Eerie.
      The threat of a Great White attacking me would freak me out too with all the seals! The ones that hunt off the coast of South Africa are absolute monsters.
