Torren Martyn – TESORO ENTERRADO

Johnny Kessel — Sat, 27 Jul 2019 23:26:13 +0000

Produced by: needessentials

Torren Martyn describes how this film came about.

"The little mission down south to warm water came around as a bit of a surprise to me too, I’d originally planned to just spend a week or two with my girlfriend Aiyana in California and pictured surfing knee to waist high Malibu at best.
One idea led to another as most good times do and before we really knew it Aiyana and I were rolling south of where we were currently camped out driving in awe through these beautiful snow capped mountains in the Eastern Sierras on a pretty straight mission south to a serious contrast of scenes, we were pretty excited!

A good mate Perry Gershkow was able to juggle a few commitments around up in his neck of the woods of SF and before we really had too much time to think we kind of just woke up the next day deep in central America, it was a classic little scenario.

I was travelling with two boards, a 7’2 and a 6’10. It’s so rare that I break a board, maybe one or two a year? anyhow I managed to break them both in the first couple of days.I guess I was rattled and disheartened when the first broke and then when the second went, I was kind of just baffled like haha really? luckily the local guys there have probably stitched together more boards than anyone anywhere else in the world so it was a pretty efficient little turn around, I was so grateful for that. Thankfully my mate Luke lent me his little 5’7 and a 4’11 for a little wiggle in between.

The waves we had down there were absolutely incredible, sort of mind boggling at times. It’s humbling the energy in the ocean and the way the sand and currents dictated where and what waves we surfed. They were there one day and gone the next. I think that was the beauty of it too, we didn’t really have any expectations or too much of a plan, things just fell in to place and I wouldn’t change a thing.

For me it was one of those spontaneous experiences made up of the combination of good people, the land, weather and a little luck on our side that are a friendly little reminder of just how lucky we all are to have this to share.

I Had Too Much To Dream Last Night

Johnny Kessel — Tue, 07 May 2019 23:01:59 +0000

Deus ex Machina in collaboration with Raen are super stoked to present the latest ocular extravaganza, ‘I HAD TOO MUCH TO DREAM LAST NIGHT’.

To give you the good oil, the movie follows the simplistic travels of two surfers, meeting friends along the way, on an open-ended journey across an archipelago littered with islands and breaks. Connected by ribbons of tarmac and separated by deep ocean valleys these islands have been here for millennia and will continue to do so for millennia to come.

A veritable Eden for waves of every nature, from long reeling glassy point breaks to sketchy urchin infested waves in the middle of nowhere.

East coast low June 2016

Filmed during one of the biggest swells in 85 years. As an insane east coast low formed and hit the Illawarra it left behind some perfect waves for all the boys to make the most of!

The Desert Hilton | Billabong Adventure Division

Johnny Kessel — Tue, 30 Oct 2018 03:21:48 +0000

“It’s like nowhere else I’ve ever been in my life. When you wake up in the morning all you can think about about surfing, and nature, and trying not to kick your toes on rocks.” - Laura Enever

The mythos of heading into the Australian desert to find waves has been burned into the collective consciousness of surfers for generations. Images of Occy threading crystal pits in Green Iguana, or sharks cruising by Shane Dorian surfing a bombie during the Billabong Challenge are two images that spring to mind.

During a recent Adventure Division trip, Occy and Shane took a new generation of crew back to the Desert Hilton, hunting swells and experience beyond the everyday grind. The faces might have changed but the results are timeless - miles of driving rewarded with heaving barrels over urchin-infested reef.

Join Occy, Shane Dorian, Jack Robinson, Laura Enever, Shaun Manners, & Kai Hing as they head North by Northwest for one iconic trip. This is, Desert Hilton.

Kalani Robb Discusses Rell Sunn’s Legacy Both in and out of the Water | SURFER: Island Pride

Johnny Kessel — Tue, 11 Sep 2018 13:33:43 +0000

When trying to trace the lineage of Kalani Robb’s fast surfing, most people would draw a line to tough, heavy-footed Hawaiian surfers like Sunny Garcia. But while Garcia and his ilk may be influences of Robb’s, the truth is that Robb actually found his greatest inspiration in the grace and fluidity of Makaha’s own Rell Sunn. In this episode of “Island Pride,” Robb discusses why Sunn is seen as the patron saint of surf style in Hawaii, the effect that she had on his surfing and how she didn’t just inspire people with her surfing, but with the way that she lived her life on land with poise and grace even in the most dire of circumstances.

Balangan Throwing Some Shade – 8 September 2018

Johnny Kessel — Mon, 10 Sep 2018 01:48:47 +0000

I wouldn't put the sun screen away, but the old girl was throwing up a head-dip here and there. A super low tide and medium sized swell meant a more than usual number of waves were linking up down the reef at Balangan.

West Oz’s Infamous Slab “The Right” Rages Again. | Sessions

Johnny Kessel — Thu, 06 Sep 2018 19:10:39 +0000

►Watch the latest Who is JOB episode here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3OVlljBiRWs
As the Southern Ocean's 2018 winter wave season goes full tilt, big wave rider Ross Clarke-Jones heads to West Australia's infamous slab, The Right, for a tow session that won't soon be forgotten.

From Nazaré to Waimea, Shipstern to The Right, no matter how quick in succession the swells may be, there's a chance you'll see Clarke-Jones out there, getting crazier waves than almost anybody else.
But let's not forget the locals, who always lead the charge when The Right comes alive and rages. Guys like Jake Osman, Brad Norris and Zac Haynes have logged some of the craziest barrels we've ever seen, and their performances in the edit above is no exception by a long shot.
