Isn't that what he does for a living? Somebody has to be a little crazy and he sure seems to be having fun being a nut.

Well, it beats being a middling competitor on the pro tour.

The guy is amazing. Making a living liviving a life any young guy, and some old farts, would kill for.  Doesnt hurt my opinion of him that he flat out said sup riding is part of being a complete waterman and he doesnt care what people say about it.

Amazing or not, I don't think anyone appreciates unburnt butane being added to the pristine water off Tahiti. Just because you can do something, doesn't mean you should.

this video was weak for JOB--most i find pretty damned funny, in a jackassy way.

can't argue that the guy is a great surfer, who rides pipe with the very best--so mixed in with the comedy one usually see some brilliant rides

like the one where he took kai out at pipe, and where he supped big waves himself

he seems a nice enough guy--never mean humor--just stupid funny shit
