Reubyn Ash is one of the most technical surfers to come out of Europe. Guy’s been surfing since he was in diapers, so it makes sense. “I started surfing when I was in nappies,” he says. “My whole family surf and my dad used to take me out when I was a toddler. He used to put a leash around his waist and stick me on his back, paddle into waves himself and then take me off his back and put me on the front of the surfboard. I was catching by myself by the time I was three.”
By the time he reached the ripe old age of 18, he had 10 British titles under his belt, along with a host of other accolades. But when he was sitting in the contests, he had his mind on aerials, which, at the time, weren’t much of a thing. And it shows. Reubyn’s latest edit from Indonesia is full of airs. And barrels, of course. It is Indo, after all.
