i don't surf, but I have had a great interest in the sport for many years. I watch every bit of footage I can find from all corners of the globe. Watching this dude I can see that he has been surfing all his life, he is certainly a natural in the water, reads the waves and loves the balance game, which is why he spends much time in the air. He should have been a skateboarder though since much of what he does is close to skating. I guess he was too soft core for the concrete...
well, skateboarding came from surfing. and ill be honest ive skated close to my entire life, and have surfed for only a couple weeks now lol, but ive had ten times the fun from riding a wave then i ever did trying to ollie and kickflip stairsets. And to be honest, in my opinion surfing is much more dangerous at the pro level than skateboarding is at the pro level.
you were surfing with a shark! D: Awesome! but i love this usually i like people that just glide on the water instead of controlling movement but amazing!
On the wave before 2:40 that was a insane air. Also did anyone notice instead of riding a PUKAS board he was riding a mayhem on just that wave before 2:40?????
I saw, but I didn't pay attention at the first time I was thinking that was dolphins because it's so commum and behind the first you can see more 2 black points moving. But after your comment I back there to look carefully. hahahahaha
TheTinhowpt e tem mais 2 pontos escuros atras se movendo, nem precisei parar o vídeo para ter certeza. Se você tem um pouco de costume com o mar rápido já pega a manha além de ver claramente como o cara aqui em cima disse, ele dobra o dorso então...
Mas.... mesmo assim Medina arrebenta. ainda tem tudo pra ser campeão mundial, talvez não será porque os gringos não irão aceitar um Brasileiro erguendo a taça...
rathead231 ano atrásem resposta a barrauna all in 4-6 ft waves. dont get me wrong he rips but remember when parko came onto the scene...there was so much hype about him but it has taken him so long to be an awesome surfer in bigger waves and he still hasnt won a world title yet. you have your opinion and i have mine...mine is that he rips but is way overrated. he does have a smooth style and really nice flow on the waves though which is uncommon for brazilian surfers. maybe one day he will win an event in 10ft plus conditions boobtubereborn2 anos atrásem resposta a rathead23 julian is 22. gabriel is 17. also your point regarding dorian is kinda rubbish. so what you are saying is that gabriel can surf a heat better than a local guy twice his age. hardly an indictment on his talent. i love dorian, but he has never been great in contests. it was difficult conditions and the "beachbreak" surfer beat the outer reef legend. enough said. rathead232 anos atrásem resposta a Greenhead is that the event where he won all his heats in 3 foot lefts at restaurants? Bad luck he didnt get to show us his all round talent on the 10 to 12 foot days at cloudbreak like when bede and raoni charged in their heats! If he wins at tahiti in 8-10 foot tubes then i will gladly admit he lives up to all the hype that hes getting. but looks like its going to be 3 ft chopes this year so he will prolly win that and prove hes an all round surfer again huh! surfesc2 anos atrás Ok, this kid rips.. now we wanna see him on the real one.. charging on big bombs at Cloudbreak & Teahupoo time goes by...
wtf?!?!? this kid is soo damn good. best young talent since slater hands down. best air game in business. imagine what he will be like at 25.
He is actually a two Times world champion.😉
@@nribefly 9 years later on track for number 3 actually.
This aged well 🙏
@@trevortice710 didnt it. if his parents and misso hadnt screwed him over he would probably have 5 or 6 by now.
This comment is gold hahahah. You predicted
Gabriel Medina is the master of airs. He is one of my favorite surfers.
Craig
Anderson?!?
He is taking surfing to a new level.
This is the one of the coolest videos of an asp surfer shredding lowers
WTF was that first air?!! A superman or a cheeky one-foot? Like many I've been reluctant to support Gabe but now I'm giving in, dudes incredible
Young talent right there, watch him, new legend right there ^
actually
Never gets old
Voando como sempre . Manda ver, garoto !!!
He is my favorite surfer. He is my idol
Your cool! Aha if he's ure 'idol' u really don't watch many surfers

dont always trust in a dolphin fin being different to a sharks...ive seen shark fins that look pretty similar to a dolphins :)
shark 00:38
It's definitely a dolphin. Everyone sees a fin and it's omgehhh it's a sharkkkk. No.
It's a dolphin, sharks don't pull half of their body off the water like that...
ae
Its a dolphin! you dont live next to a beach lol
tubarão branco!
definately dolphin. stick to the shore kids.
Não é tubarão nenhum -_- , os tubarões não andariam tão perto da praia, é um golfinho.
It's a dolphin... Smh
sur fffffffffffffffffffffffff BrAsIlLlLlLLlLlLl
That music sucks!!! Pretty much tuned out.turnedoff sound just to watch....

Sic air rev. But most of these guys style suffers from a lack of knowing a basic cutback.
Lol I totally agree
golfinho
King of interference drop-in's!! Seems like such a tool.
slow down medina too much on one wave complete a turn wood ya
