Former Child-Star Removes Stickers, Beefs Up, Drops F-ing Hammers

Tyler Gunter is all grown up and going on an absolute rampage.

Former child-star and Newport Beach local Tyler Gunter embarked on a recent strike mission to Indonesia, which appears to have been successful.

For the time being, Tyler’s top priority should be changing his misleading Instagram handle. With man turns like that, @instagrom just isn’t appropriate anymore. That’s like naming a vicious Rottweiler Cupcake.

Gunter’s aggressive approach to overhead sections will have you questioning your manhood. If professional surfing doesn’t workout, Tyler won’t have any issues scoring a job at the local hardware store (he’s got experience dishing out fucking hammers).

As far as content goes, this checks all of the boxes: solid surfing, dramatic cinematography, and a refined soundtrack. And you know I’m a picky little bitch when it comes to music. But opening with Jimi Hendrix and following it up with A$AP Rocky? I’ll slide Tyler the Aux any day of the week.

Watch above for the only surf film to give me goosebumps since the release of Pentacoastal.
