When’s The Last Time You Got Properly Throttled?

First and Last: Dion Agius

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Living in a geographically secluded island like Tasmania, one might wonder how Dion Agius manages to stay relevant.

And by “stay relevant”, I mean contribute to successful business ventures, pump out mind-numbing edits, and retain a Stab High slot amongst all the 16-year-old prodigies. 

You might recognize Dion from his work with Globe, Haydenshapes, Epokhe, Standard Procedure, Manera, Octopus—tell me when to stop. Fast, agile, and erratic, D’s unique approach to surfing is backed by an equally impressive filmmaking resume.

We had the privilege of chatting with Dion about his recent whereabouts and first-time experiences in the wonderful world of surfing. Good waves, bad waves, cryptic email addresses, we left no stone unturned. Relax, unwind, and enjoy an afternoon with one of the world’s most aesthetically-minded surfers.
