      I like how you guys kept the audio with the drone footage.
      The heavy breathing reinforces just how much energy is used to surf a wave that long and hollow.
      You could feel the leg burn each time he relaxed a bit between sections, then getting back into stance.
      I feel exhausted just watching.
