| 298256 | 16537 | Learning to accept that you don't rip | 91 | Bruce Fowler | Nov 26, 2023 | 2023-11-26T12:46:08-0500 | I don't know if any of us really have to accept the thread's title.....? "Ripping" can mean many things to many people. Ultra smooth flowing surfing of a younger Mike Hynson in the "Summer Endless aka Endless Summer" can fall away to a fluid Andy Neumann, Stu Fredricks or Renny Yater @ Rincon or the Ranch........ or the 'further south' Skip Frye on a mega sized Glider years ago. The fluid surfing of today's Torren Martyn isstrangely resonating with the lines & moves of Terry Fitz in this Vimeo. Both radically smooth, fluid, instinctually gifted....... My Bottom Line? Doing aerials, jerky dis-harmonic planet killing snaps, twirlybirds or "Rodeo Loops" isn't a pre-requistite to uh, ..... "ripping". Do you ........ "grok"? Watch this grasshopper......... and contemplate. https://eos.surf/video/entry/terry-...itzgerald/?fbclid=IwAR0fYwSeQUgVNa5DT5AtlB0__As4_apSpxjbt-rGXi1keHf1nzMRlQmsm9Q |
