Michael February x Marvin Gaye Is Not To Be Missed

Like Milk and Honey.

Reading Time: < 1 minutes

Mikey February’s surfing oozes a unique blend of performance and soul. Being the objectively world-class talent that he is, when lucking into a dreamy right point on a recent trip to Mexico, Mikey found himself in the enviable position of logging more clips than he knew what to do with. Rather than leaving them on the cutting room floor, “Recycled Mexico” was born.

The song choice is decidedly brilliant. I’d like to think “Got To Give It Up” is on a constant loop in Mikey’s head while he’s dodging, swooping, and weaving through the backwash laden point. Nevertheless, Mikey February x Marvin Gaye is a truly symbiotic combo that no one knew we needed until it was here. This one’s all but guaranteed to put a smile on your face, so sit back, relax, and spend your next three minutes feeling the rhythm. You’ll be glad you did.
