Jordy Smith at Jeffreys Bay is one of surfing’s greatest sights. The long, roping walls of Africa’s most famous right hander allow the big natural footer to generate fearsome speed, which he then harnesses and turns in to the biggest carves in the game. Spray flies to the stratosphere, raining back down at the same time as his next vicious assault on the lip. It’s brutal and beautiful, beastly and balletic. Big, bold and brash, there’s nothing else quite like it.
