The WSL Finals, But Romantic

Anyone who watched the WSL recognizes the competitive spectacle it was. Top tier surfing from the world’s best, a truly unrivaled event in terms of both consequence and performance. But in the heat of competition, we often forget just how beautiful surfing really is.

This video shows the same waves that had us jumping out of our seats in a more romantic light. Set to the tune of Joyce and Dori Caymmi’s “Joãozinho Boa Pinta”, Gabriel Medina and Filipe Toledo fly across the cobblestones with unmatched style and grace. They tear the waves to bits, yes, but in a way that warms your soul.
