Jordy Smith on the future of surfing
According to Jords, the future of surfing is scintillating! Bigger airs, more power, and…heats scored on one wave? Whoa Jords, that’s bold, bru. He makes a good point though. We’ve gone from top four waves, to top three, to top two, and counting backwards is just so fun, why not end at one? But real talk, Jords promises his most earnest effort in keeping up with whatever the game throws at him. Considering his freakish ability, we think it’s a promise he can keep. “Guys are landing 540’s with no straps on. I guarantee you 10 years ago they would have told you that was absolutely impossible…Where will it go? I think anything is possible.” Some depth from our favourite plus-sized South African.
