Two hours ago, Sara Taylor posted an alarming video sequence from a surf session in Bali.

In the first scene, Sara is cut off and promptly forces the shoulder-hopper off the wave. The sequence escalates when another unknown surfer paddles up and punches her in the back of the head. The video closes with her filmer screaming “go away, go away,” as the assailants attack them on the beach.

Terrifying.

Nora Vasconcellos re posted the video on her Instagram and said, “These men attacked Sara Taylor and Charlie this morning in Bali. Portuguese speaking, possibly Brazilian. Attacking and sucker punching women. Who are they?”

Sara Taylor (surfer) said, “After being dropped in on, on my first wave, the guy’s friend punched me in the head and then after being confronted about hitting me, he attacked Charlie on the beach for filming him. This is insane, does anyone know who they are?”

Charlie (filmer) asked, “Who the fuck are these losers who attacked me and Sara this morning? Please share.”

Since, the attacker has been ID’d as Brazilian surfer JP Azevedo.

The assailant.
His friend.

We interviewed both women about the incident HERE.
