“Here & Home” is a new series focusing on the individual lives of O’Neill’s team riders looking at how they spend their time at home and on the road. Torrey owes everything to the Big Island of Hawaii, surfing variable conditions over shallow, sharp reefs. It developed his surfing into what we see today.
Early April saw a late swell light up Mundaka with a 2.5m swell building to 3.5m over two days with decent south to southwest winds getting a little strong at times which for some difficult drops, keeping us entertained! The crowd was on it as per usual being made up of locals, pro’s and traveling surfers.
Roberto D’Amico and Leonardo Fioravanti having fun on the Mediterranean coast of Italy driving 3000 Km to intercept two swells from different directions. The first up North with Leo, the second one is down South.
The video really show you the vibes and culture Italy has to offer. It’s hard to read swell charts, everything changes really quickly but once you are in the right place at the right time could be really fun, ENJOY!
When an 8-foot swell hit Hawaii’s Oahu Dillon Perillo went on #thesearch tracked its movements in various directions and finally zeroed in on a remote atoll many, many miles from the densely populated line-ups of the famed North Shore.
Episode 3 of Just passing through
When you live in place that has “Gold” in its name and “Super” in the name of its most notorious wave, you know that you’re somewhere special. And while the rest of the globe is traveling from far off places around the world to experience that, there’s no place quite like home for Mick Fanning.
Watching Mick toy with the long waves at the Superbank, it is so clear as to why he’s got the world titles, event wins and utter domination of various breaks around the world . From Snapper to Greenmount, all the way down the bank to Kirra, witness Mick’s casual approach – the subtle weight shifts to burn off speed to the little bunny hops to accelerate back through spinning little tunnels of joy – it’s as if Mick knows what the wave is doing before the wave even does.
Kepa Acero and Natxo González bolted to Southern Africa for the first Namibian swell of the season. Video game style mind blowing barrels contained within.
