Clay does not look out of his element...

And has some Jonny Junkyard-esque maneuvers...

One of the best surfers and barrel riders in the world. How did he make some of those??

Some of the loosest surfing I have seen in ages. Genius at reading the wave.

Marzo is amazing. Part surfing savant part dolphin.

More at home in the water than on land.

A truly gifted surfer if you ever saw one. I never thought much of Marzo until that Tom Jennings clip popped up on Swellnet a while back (

).. So casual in such intense (and beautiful) waves. Be great to watch him surf those waves in the flesh.

Doubt there'd be many surfers who wouldn't be pitched on those takeoffs, how does he keep his speed despite the lateness of those drops??

FON if there ever was one. Sixth sense and makes many a flapping Brazilian look as kooky as they really are. No poo stance, no arms and legs in all directions and no claims. What is going wrong here?
