    The most soulful surf film I’ve seen in a while, Mikey on those classic boards is art. If only it could have been longer!

    One Love 💜💚💛 I love this vid man. Mikey's surfing is so Soulful. I was thinking Shawn Thompson as i was watching. I love the picture of Buttons too. The old man's guitar playing was epic. Why can't we get it together as a social planet and love the diversity of all people? I hope future generations find a way to stop racism, war, hate and genocide.

    Beautiful waves , beautiful surfing . So few have a distinctive style , but MF does , graceful and flowing . This beautiful surfing is missing in the WSL now as they use crap waves where every contestant must cram as many moves as poss into every wave and they don't award points for style Thanks for the best of surfing in '21.
