Riding a 5’6 Twinny At Bombing Nazaré?

William Aliotti is pushing the limits in more ways than one.

Some people enjoy riding twin fins.

Others yet, enjoy twin-fins so much that they decide to exclusively ride them, whether from a self-branding standpoint, or from a place of a true affection for trim — often both.

And then there’s William Aliotti, who rides twin fins even when he tows into triple overhead Nazaré. Sure, he doesn’t get barreled out there, but aside from Natxo Gonzalez…who really does? And anyway, his Kandui Resort tube time through the rest of his new movie ‘Just Like Heaven’ more than makes up for it.

Aside from his fishy Praia do Norte stunt, this film also features some finless frontier exploration — to match his Teahupoo antics from a few years ago — and a whole lot of silky steeze.

Tap in for a reminder that you don’t have to ride potato chip thrusters to do exciting surfing. Oh, and there’s an Ozzie Wright ukulele cameo.
