  • The Search is back...
    It’s not often a World Title contender goes on The Search mid-season. But, when Mick Fanning let Gabriel Medina know where he was heading with Mason Ho, it was too good for Gabby to pass up. Medina adjusted his plans, slid into the mission, and shifted gears to hunt some wild slabs in the wildly remote coasts of Australia.
    This was no luxury trip either. The crew stayed in vermin-infested cabins in the middle of nowhere and survived off two-minute noodles and sausages in bread for dinner. Medina ate nothing but cheese sandwiches for most meals. Mason Ho even woke up one morning to find his toothbrush had been totally devastated by rats. Despite these challenges, the surfers had an incredible time. It’s what The Search is all about.
    “That was the stuff I dream of,” says Mason Ho about the trip. “I couldn’t believe, not one person around or out. Then surfing with those two guys, they’re not only surfing world champions, they’re like human world champions too.”
    The Kangs takes you on The Search through a wide, open land…

      I'm a JJF stan (Hawaii born and raised). But between this vid and seeing his struggles as documented in "Make or Break", I have grown to like and admire Gabe so much more than just a talented rival to John.

      He was nice Gab, the big fella Owen & Kita and Kids and I mist my old Cousin Conna & Sarah and Connas Cats
      Mist Conna at Christmas 😭 sharing Cats going 💯💯 play in Christmas Trees 🥰
      Paantharr Neva had a Tree we nearly did we often Worked Christmas or cried and or nearly died of loneliness and no culture plus of heartbreak of such
      I growled re I'm so hurt of bullyn to me of win I worked for Rip Curl and supported Bongs and Silver
      I was nearly bashed locked up Gunna Paantharr going hang out at the Concrete Kellz Built 🤦 I was even surf my firsty at Kellz
      May Gibbs one day a Surfer use their manners
      I mist yerrz so much Gunna Paantharr didn't 😢

      I was too scared re the Violence at me of Racism to ask him teach me to surf. Didn't help I was gun shy of violence
      He's a awesome Athlete. Was cool to see him Surf Nature.
