“When you go surfing it does speed up, time does speed up. You don’t notice it as much, half an hour goes through like nothing. An hour’s nothing. But on the beach, when you’re watching, when you sit there for about an hour you notice how slow it is… how time’s so slow. But out on the ocean it’s a lot quicker. It’s like another dimension… It [time] does slow down in the barrel. Especially at Kirra – you’re always in the barrel at Kirra (when I was doing it). I used to do it for yards – sitting right in there.”
– Kirra legend, Michael Peterson, RIP
