Watch: Shaun Manners // Blastoid
Shaun Manners has been frugal with his clips, we haven't seen or heard much of him, and then he goes and drops something like this. An eight minute ode to distortion pedals and twisted waves with Manners negotiating all, uh, manner of steps and and mutations.
The attempt at the 8:00 min mark, and the make the next wave, will have you rushing for the replay button.
Well-paced, well-edited, and well-fucken-surfed

That was incredible. Epic waves. Amazing surfer. Paid the price eventually. Great stuff.
Those drops around the 8 minute mark are insane...unbelievable surfing to make the drops let alone the barrels!
Give that man a pay rise! well enough to get his teeth fixed but 'that ' wave at 8mins was epic....i wrote him off .....good surfing.
Such a sick vid, I remember seeing his old man grab and push him through the back of a solid 6fter easy out at tombies one day, must’ve been 5-6 years ago so he could’ve only been 15 max and not much more than that in kilos either. Have stumbled upon him surfing solo in the south oz desert before to, i think that says a bit also.
Wow!
Shredder. How's the cheeky barrel at 11:33 with the board backwards!
Wicked to see Matt. Made me feel young again. Miss those good times
Ride of the year.!!
Yep...that was good
So farking sick
Very good, watched a couple of times.
So good.
WA, and the young chargers it breeds, give me a massive inferiority complex.
Mazing. And extra points for ending the video with Pavement.
Somebody tell me where I can firewood that easy to chop ...
That takeoff into backhand slab is insane
Next Level.
Shaun " Hammers" Manners!
Ever get the feeling you've been wasting your life?
I got it now. :-)
Surfed this joint for every year in 90s and early 2000s. Was paradise. Haven’t been back since 2002. So many chargers back then and no cameras. I find it funny to think the latest round of chargers weren’t even born yet. And the dudes who ruled it back then are probably all to old now for such a heavy wave. Life moves in cycles eh. Sometimes I want a time machine tho
The present is way better than the future as far as that joints concerned.
Don’t dream about it , just get back there.
Hope you get some.
Wow that was phenomenal. Compare that to the final round in Portugal.........It should be this sort of stuff that defines champs not hopping around in 2 foot. Great surfing and super vid. 5 stars chaps.
That brightened up my lunch break! Great style and courage to match.
