Australian surfers may not have heard of Patch Wilson, but everyone can appreciate the first two waves in this clip. The first wave he gets bucked off, but the second wave...hoo-ey!...ol' Patch gets a wave that'd be up there in anyone's top five.

Don't worry about replaying it after the first run, the canny filmmakers show it twice more from different viewpoints. It really is that good.

...and then there's the rest of the clip which is OK too.

Patch charging, Ireland looking sick, good vids today. Nice change from the blue water barrel rinse and repeat, as pleasurable as it is to see.
