“This day was after a few massive perfect days out at Teahupoo. All the guys had gotten their fill the days previous and then again this morning. It had gotten a little bit wonky and most crew had gone in. Griffin was in a bad rhythm earlier in the day and hadn’t gotten a good wave so he stayed out. When I say stayed out I mean he parked it there and never left. I swam for at least six hours this session, no water, no food, just all adrenaline. Waves were still pumping and not that many crew on it. Griff finally started to get into a rhythm later in the session and was bagging great waves back to back to back. We were legit screaming in the channel like children. On every kick out, heads were tossed back, mouths agape, letting out the most primitive howls.”
