- Jay Davies was once paid handsomely to ride a surfboard. After covid killed his RVCA contract, he's had to find alternative means to make a living. So, now he's throwing ropes on a WA tugboat.

This might be the first surfer I’ve heard of that really is a genuinely good role model. Great attitude and humble too. Sick!
So this is the first time you've heard of any surfer. Thanks for sharing your incredibly ignorant opinion.
Dude. I grew up as a deckhand on tugboats. Always good to have hands on skills. Working on the water is better than an office gig any day. Thank you for being dude.
Love Jay, I pray all the best for him. Dude is so humble and talented.
Grew up watching and surfing with Jay and his brother Wyatt , knew one day the kid will go , turned into a beast , flogged Gabe , and is just the nicest dude ever , so humble , absolute all round good honest bloke 💚🤙🏼🔥🌊🍻👊🏼
Grew up a fan, still a fan, will always be a fan of Jay.. Guy has it all: airs, big barrels, power. Get this guy sponsored again!!!
I remember Jay getting the wild card in the Margret River Pro some years back.....he schooled ALL THE PROs...I honestly thought he was going to win the whole CT event.
Jay keep your chin up...sorry to hear you lost your sponsor...glad you found a job on the ocean. 🚢🌊
Mental ripper with great work ethics- now THATS the type of guy i would look for as a sponsor! Great role model!
Humbling Mate! You are truly a fucking LEGEND! Hard working in and out of the ocean. I have more respect for someone who has never let any “set back” define them. Plus dog you have a solid job with ENDLESS work that will never stop do to any world crisis or lack of consumer spending. You keep your chin up and remember your Impact on the surfing world especially in WA has and will never ever be taken from ya! Plus they call it “Sunday Funday” for a reason. Now grab a coldie from the ice chest and reflect on all those years(and Tubes) that 95% of surfers will never get to experience. BTW you have any old boards you could throw to this old broke man? Bhahahaha
Much love and respect Cheers you cheeky-sleg! 😂
great comment!!!
get this man a fawkin blade
True Waterman. Glad I saw this. Amazingness.Reminds me of legend Shane Powell evolving into world class fisherman.
Nice welcome to the grind
From his perspective it seems easy to complain and feel frustrated but it's awesome to see his positive outlook and attitude in this video! Should share his workout regime, guy built like a spartan.
It's a pretty good job to be able to get into, i'm sure with a bit more experience you'll be able to pick up a good roster and more tubes
Goes from pro surfer to working on the tugs making a killing. My bleeds for how hard u’ve got it mate.
Now that’s a man!!!!!Mucho respecto your way hermano 🤙🏼👊💯🏄🏻♂️
Wrong title. He’s a green horn deck hand who rips!
That’s cool, good for him
been my favorite westoz surfer since that right beachbreak woke up on that northern swell...he s that guy, charging, not giving a F about fame , if I could i would sponsor that guy
I admire Jay since a know him. Really sorry for lost his sponsor but honestly i feel its a bit unfair because the guy charges most of lots of freesurfer sponsored i think he needs make more visuals thinks more videos and he come back to the scene. Cheers Jay you"re beast.
Dude. Looks like an improvement.
You hating it mate.... in your heart of hearts
Tug on you crazy diamond!
Presumably that job isn’t 9-5? So would be able to surf most days before a shift ?
It seems that he's an ordinary seaman. I used to be, pretty good job, huge and different, but when you do your best you can be a future tug boat captain.
Its a shame he still isnt sponsored
250k pa, need a union card to get the job, need to know someone to get in the union
Hey mate. Welcome back to normal life mate. I’m working bloody hard six days a week to feed my son.
Not what ya know but who ya know... Hard to get a gog doing whay davies is doing!!
who you calling a shrimp boat captain 🤣
boycott RVCA
Welcome to the real world my friend.
Blue collar will make you humble. Dirty hands clean money...
Are you implying that being a surfer your making dirty money??
