Edit from the windy Nazare tow surfing session on December 8th, 2021. Featuring Lucas Chinch "Chumbo" , Trevor Carlson, Andrew Cotton, Lucas Fink, and many more I have yet found the names too. Today was big, bumpy and full of chaos. 30 knot wind Nazaré.
Raw, edgy and unfiltered, Dane unleashes his full bag of tricks, obliterating waves and blowing minds in the process.
Pull into the latest delivery from Dane and crew above and hope over to his blog for more here.

Matt doesn’t believe human behavior is influencing global warming. Matt has a 5th grade degree in science from Pierpont elementary.
It’s December 7th and it feels like it’s June. Been flat and gloomy. August had 55 degree water. I swear the pipe used to have a half decent arrangement of cobbles for a somewhat rippable albeit soft peeler. Now it’s a turd. Theres a graveyard of pipe cobbles at San Jon. No rain to restock the pipe.
‘Star Bar,’ remember that? Every 4/5 years there’d be a rain event significant enough to create a massive sandbar at Santa Clara river mouth that extended out 100 yards sometimes more. It’s been about 17 years since the last ‘Star Bar.’
What I’m saying is I notice a change, in my short time of paying attention to the weather where I live, 20 or so years, and that is alarming. 20 years is a tiny slice of time for drastic change. Is it purely a cycle? Or is the earth a microwave choking on carbon and there’s no turning back? I know everyone reading this is an expert, can we get some scientific evaluation? Anyone wanna compare notes from your regional data?
Thanks for tuning in

Nice pulse of south swell on the Gold Coast today providing plenty of fun waves and plenty of good surfers were out at Dbah making the most of it. Something for everyone in this session with some clean barrels, carves and airs.Â
Why is surfing The Cave the most dangerous wave in Portugal? Why have so many people got hurt while surfing this wave? It's just a brutal wave unfolding on nearly dry reef.
Why do we keep coming back for it even though Antonio Silva has broken his back twice out there?
Because they love it. Another strike mission down to The Cave, it was absolutely firing - Nic Von Rupp
