As per the YouTube top comment, “Nothing like drinking 30 beers and watching chapter 11.”

Here’s the latest from the Ventura production house, starring Dimitri Poulos, who just missed out on qualifying for the big leagues this season. 

Unlucky 13.

Copy supplied:

“A water bug has thousands of tiny water repelling hairs on its feet that allow it to skip over the water’s surface. Dimitri Poulos kinda surfs like a one. By the time an average surfer is up and ready to rip a turn, Dimitri would have already blasted the lip 8 times and is in the middle of a full rotation backside punt… probably landing BOLTS. His level of talent on a surfboard and ability to make a random beach spectator go “holy shit” is a common occurrence every time he’s out surfing. You give him good waves, you give him shit waves, the dudes always making something happen that’s worth watching. Still insane there no main sponsor support this guys career! WHAHHH?!”
