In Winters Arms

The fourth clip in the our Favourite British Clips series documents Tom Lowe’s paddle in exploits over one incredible Irish Winter, with Mickey Smith on the edit. 

Tom Lowe is undoubtedly one of the biggest chargers England has ever produced. Hailing originally from the small Cornish town of St Ives, he burst into the international surf media’s conscious in the winter of 2008, along with Fergal Smith and photographer Mickey Smith, with a constant stream of amazing shots and clips which opened the surfing worlds eyes to the potential on offer along the Irish coastline.

This edit, shot over the course of one such winter in Ireland, stands as testament to his incredible skill and fearlessness and has an incomparably timeless quality to it, making it just as impressive today as when it came out 2 years ago.

Filmed by:  Mickey Smith, Alan Wilson, Kevin Smith, James Skerritt and Greg Browning.
