Celebrity Instagram Surfer Christmas Special

Is Kelly having a better time than you? Should you have bought your mother in law a thong? Probably.

28th December 2016

Since 1981

christmas

While the majority of us normal folk are enjoying the standard issue Christmas of 6000 calorie days, 20 unit nights and whatever personal hell your extended family delivers, spare a thought for the world’s pro surfers. Chances are they’re somewhere uncomfortably humid, miles away from turkey and stuffing, with only perfect blue oceans and scantily-clad members of the opposite to keep them company. Sigh.

Luckily, in this Black Mirror style world of social media and 4G networks, not only can all those lucky surfers keep everyone up to date with their enviable holiday season, we can take a break from the frosty European winter and have a good old nose around their personal lives.

Might as well start off with the man himself. Everyone’s favourite superhero kicked off his festivities with an early morning session at the impressive standing waves down near Waimea.

Standing waves at Waimea. And @whoisjob has this thing wired. Fun to be a #RiverRat again after missing it for a few years now. Thanks for the heads up call this morning, @northshorelifeguardassociation! #ShouldIThrowTheBoogieBoardAtHim?! ๐Ÿ“ฝ: @shelbymeade

Fellow islander Jamie O’Brien uploaded an epic Christmas day selfie of an empty Pipeline beast. Sat atop a pink foamie, of course.
