Green shorts dude is a MENACE 😂

That dude in the green shorts got me tilted.

Yep, this reminds me of my experience surfing on north shore of Oahu. I was respectful, waited my turn, passed up many many waves that were mine under proper etiquette… and still got dropped in on many times and put into dangerous situations. I’m glad I got the experience off my bucket list and the waves were good. But, I would never go back. No way in hell would I do that again. The shallow reef and strong currents were formidable… but the crowds of people including locals that had no etiquette or discernible logic to their lineup made the experience mostly negative and dangerous. The vibes were bizarre, honestly. Never again.

I mean rule #1 if you are gonna drop in on someone has to be don’t wear fluro yellow boardies

There are the same two guys that keep dropping in and need a free dental appointment on the beach!

That yellow shorts guy was in every other clip😭

pretty much sums up the state of surfing in 2024

Some of these guys are going to cry when they see what they really look like surfing.

I've been surfing for 50 years. Seeing and experiencing this makes it  hard to enjoy it anymore

HECTIC!  That situation at 2:00!  Dude duck dives just before a surfer rides next to him and the board pops up in front of rider with leggy still attached.  leggy grabs and snaps end off board!  Awesome footage.  Old big fella with green shorts needs a hiding aye.

Wait their turn? Every single one out there is part of the problem. If you want to paddle out into a mess like that you deserve everything you get or don't get. All etiquette is lost in crowds like that. Even Occy gets dropped in on. For the life of me I can't see why you'd even bother. Coming out of the surf more stressed than when you went in sort of defeats the purpose doesn't it?

“Life’s chill man. We’re so laid back. Only friendly vibes. 🤙”

incredible wavee filled with  lost humans

Too many dudes out, simple as that 😎

I surfed for about 40 years, in the last few years I felt like I was getting ready for a brawl every time.
I'm not saying that's why I don't surf anymore because basically my shoulders are so sore that I can't move them, but it was getting pretty stressful for me.
That's not why I surf.

the ones who always  burn and punch other people are always the worse surfers😂 especially green shorts

I was surfing the other day in Bali and yes I’m a beginner so I went to a beginner beach. A guy legit hit me and I have bruising because of it. Most surfers though are so supportive and cheer each other on. Waves are for everyone and being kind and sharing that experience is so important otherwise stay home!

Everything that is wrong with surfing.

If you have ever driven on the roads in the GC, this behaviour completely makes sense.

It used to take me around an hour to get a wave out at Snapper while battling the south sweep. 2005, what a winter that was.
