This visual feast is another reminder of how massively the invention of the GoPro has changed the landscape of surf videography.
Yes, the surfers POV has been recorded for decades, but it wasn’t until a few years ago that capturing breathtaking footage like this was accessible to so many.
The clip features Balinese pro Marlon Gerber as he fosters his protégé nephew Varun Tanjung in the ways of Indonesian surfing.
Go Pro is the best way to articulate the surfing experience without needing to fumble about for the suitable words to friends family or Larry land-lover. Even if you are a techno phobe/ hater.
Only the start of things really.
Years from now the lighties can show their lighties how they had to attach a thing called the Go-Pro to their boards .
