Just like the fictional Colonel Kurtz, our very own Oliver Kurtz (the one who surfs and is very real) had fallen off the map. Aside from an occasional Instagram post, the Floridian goofyfooter had made himself scarce when it came to the coveted Interweb surf clip.
But no more! After months of darkness, Ollie’s sartorial sponsor Brixton has released a megaclip featuring his globetrotting, surf-craft-shredding escapades of late. And it’s good to have him back. From the looks of it, Kurtz has been enjoying the fruits of foreign lands – a rampy beachbreak to kick the clip off, a reeling righthander in the middle, and a heaving left tube to close it with a bang – all bathed in warm water.
Fact: it’s no fun having a dearth of Ollie Kurtz. But if he reappears every few months or so with a clip like this, can you really be mad at him? Hint: no, no you can’t.
