La Jolla-based surfer Jake Halstead just dropped a new edit, “A Three Minute Attention Span.” The roughly 3-minute video teaches a few things:

Jake Halstead is an absolute unit. Built like a fridge while still impressively agile. Rumor has it, Jake maintains his broad figure by eating all of the mouthy groms in SoCal.

Jake doesn’t shy away from a barrel. No matter how late, how steep, or how unforgiving the take-off. He’s going for it, and there’s a good chance he’s getting spit out.

Sometimes it’s ok to burn people. I mean, if the person you burn is also burning someone, fuck it, no? Two wrongs don’t make a right, but they sure provide one hell of a left. Watch at 1:38, then ravage the comments with your noble teachings of proper etiquette.

Click away you fools.
