A peak behind the curtain of your most treasured surfing slices from the year just gone.
On our Instagram account we’ve been doing a countdown of the 25 most-watched clips of 2022. For the top 10, which will get us to the dying embers of the year, we thought we’d dig a little deeper into the videos themselves.
It’s a peak behind the curtain on just why these slivers of surfing from 2022 proved so popular with the Wavelength faithful. You’re a strange bunch, sure, but you know your surfing, and you know what you like. And that’s what we love about ya.
No. 9: Jack Says Sorry
Pro surfers and Peniche bodyboarders have history. Joel Parkinson once found himself at the centre of a controversial blow-up in a freesurf session, after being dropped in on by a booger, while many other visiting surfers have felt the ire of the Supertubes locals.
