You know what’s a good match? Jordy Smith and a righthand point break. Jordy Smith excels in waves that match his surfing—no one really wants to see him (or any surfer, save for maybe Filipe Toledo) in mushy little waves—and the waves in this clip are just about perfect for Smith’s style of surfing: very fast and very powerful.
Jordy’s stoke levels go through the roof when he first spots this little slice of African heaven, and it’s a feeling we can all relate to. You know the feeling, right? Pulling up to a spot, holding your breath that what you’ve been imagining will actually be there in front of your eyes, then getting the first glimpse at a roping, reeling wave with no one out? Ah yes, that’s why we all do this.
