Watch: Jonathon Gubbins // Well Barrelled Human
You remember Jono, yeah? Peruvian bloke, fan of the forward-weighted tube stance, bad aversion to tail pads - not that he doesn't like them, just doesn't stand on them.
In this five minute clip, Jon demonstrates the successful application of the technique, board largely running straight but the speed management comes from weighting and unweighting the rocker line.

I really enjoyed his style. he made it look so easy.
A man born to surf Donkey Bay.
Someone buy him a HB single fin with double fliers and watch as he explodes into joy - "Sea of Jooooyyyyyy...."
So composed in that position he just sat there didn't make a show just let the wave do the talking around him I ended being entranced
Micro adjustments. Very impressive.
He makes it look like everybody else is doing it wrong.
Wild style.
It would appear he’s not too fussed about going right ?!.....
a man who requires no sunscreen
No back foot wear on his tail pads, and yes he's keeping in the shade as much as possible.
Last wave at pipe (or OTW) was a perfect final touch

You're not wrong!
Must be a skateboarder, like his style.
