    Cold water surfing is extremely difficult used to hate surfing in the winter in Ireland when i was beginning but strange thing happens after a while you fall in love in the pain and struggle. Honestly impressed how easy you adapted to the cold brother:)

    This could be my new fav vlog of yours and I pretty sure it's because of your wife natural reactions to your surfing and how you edited it to feel real organic by, for example chosing non distracting background music which volume didn't overpower your wife's reaction to your surfing and the sound of the waves and nature. Bravo!

    Love the glove rant!! A good tip for solo sessions in freezing weather is to bring a cooler full of hot water and leave it by your car when you go out. When you get in put your hands and feet in it to regain feeling, then you have enough dexterity to get your wetsuit unzipped (to unlock the car and get your suit/gloves/booties off)!

    Watch out for the foam: it can be deadly… if you get pushed into even deeper foam where you can’t get on top of by sitting up, you can suffocate. Happened to 5 Dutch very able surfers 2 years ago in a freak accident! Cheers for another great vid!

Look at me sounding like a movie diehard and i dont even like Avengers much, just couldnt help myself. That place at night with a storm is probably eerie as all hell. Epic break too, love seeing you be-friend a booger(as i am one myself!). Seemed like a chill down to earth dude. He charged it and got some bombs, those pits he was in prob were some gnarly views man. All with no booties or gloves sheeesh. The wifey is a legend for staying out and recording, thank you!

Going in the water later on here i can watch from my lounge window and go when its at its best LOL.
