The Inertia

It must be strange to be Jamie O’Brien. Apparently, surfing incredibly good waves all the time has lost a bit of its shine, because he’s constantly doing strange things to mix it up. Things like lighting himself on fire and surfing Teahupo’o or surfing giant waves on inflatable couches. He might not actually be bored of surfing, though… he’s doing the things that’ll make people watch his YouTube channel.

While many surfers might not ever get the chance to surf at Kelly’s Surf Ranch, Jamie O’Brien doesn’t even want to see it. Literally. He wants to surf it, yeah, but barrel vision? He’ll pass. Well, he’ll pass on it once, at least. His most recent vlog follows along as Jamie, a few friends, and a couple of lucky contest winners spend a foggy day in Lemoore, California.
