Had to rewind this bit a couple of times though:
Wtf... how the... what did he just do?

One day, one day

I think it's called an Air Flaka - something most of us can only ever dream of doing!
The shakas a pretty standard move now, it was once referred to as 'the impossible' or something.. But now there is not much street cred doing them off the back of the wave like this .. Its Ok doing them at a freestyle spot like Gerroa, not when there are epic waves behind you!.. Here I was tired, bored of crashing and was hoping nobody was watching!
.. But doing shakas on the face of the wave is the holy grail (back side 360).. A lot more kudos for that. Same as goiters vs ponchs...
