And who would have thought that Hiroto Ohara, who stands just over five feet tall and has a forearm the length of a baby carrot, could deliver such a quick and decisive defeat against the all-American beef patty, Nat Young, in a priority arm wrestle?

This, along with Hiroto’s reaction to Amuro Tsuzuki’s winning the women’s 10,000 event, plus the adorable night-reading scene, where three of USA’s finest surfing specimens gorge themselves on self-help books, are easily the best parts of the newest Snaketales ep. 

Warning: the surfing in this video is relatively benign, but if you find yourself intrigued by the life and times of true QS surfers, who play card games to decide who will the do the dishes and fondle tennis balls before their heats, you might just enjoy this ep.
