  • Rob Machado headed to his local break he grew up surfing and proceeded to demonstrate his mastery of this wave. With a fun new swell in the water and a shorter sized fish under his feet he tore it up with some incredible cutback and wrap arounds.

    Watched Rob & Justin grow up surfing Cardiff Reef, Moonlight, Pipes, Stone Steps, and Grandview. Rob was always the ultimate soul surfer, smooth as silk. He's gotta be 50 yrs old now and the absolute nicest guy on the planet. And as always, the smile. Thanks for the memories Rob, you are the best ambassador for the art of surfing in the world.

      felt the same way filming it. sometimes you get to see people who are just on a whole other level with surfing. they almost know what the wave is going to do before it even breaks. was at Lowers doing water photos once on a fun swell and Slater showed up. can't even begin to describe to you what it is like watching him surf coming at you and cranking turns directly in front of your camera. pretty surreal. message me on my IG Alan and I will send you an epic water shot I got of him from that session.

    Don’t forget Jeremy Summerville, Shane Stoneman and Paul Roach. We were all ripping Palisades when the parking lot was dirt and muddy, that’s when Seaside was best. The wave changed so much after they built the new paved lot “twice”, it changed the inside section the most.

    • @SLAWTVvideos
      @SLAWTVvideos  2 роки тому
