    Amazing series, I lived in Ireland for a few years and surfed many times in Bundoran, Easky, Lahinch. It takes balls to surf there, everything is hard, the wetsuit, the bigger board, the strong freezing wind, and heavy water. My huge respect for Irish surfers!

      Ha ha met this guy at Moy Hill.
      I felt so humbled by his presence and attitude.
      I’ve got nothing but admiration for him.
      Visit the farm to see his magic at work.

    Thank you. Really well done. This is what I miss about the sports "industry" Once, we (i used to work in television) used to spend a lot more time searching and capturing wonderful stories- They were not about flash. This is full of that soul that i miss. Again, thank you thank you thank you.

      thanks for pointing this out 🙌🏼 We love having the chance to produce films like this... gotta show the soul of the sport as much as possible. Check out this one too, if you haven't had a chance yet: th-cam.com/video/d1S1_jVkH0g/w-d-xo.html .... More to come in the near future...

    Surfed with Britton brothers yesterday on some nice sized waves absolutely stoked to see then in the water and let me tell you them "boys" still got it. Mad respect!

  • @hangtime540yo
    @hangtime540yo 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This is the best filmed, waves killed and best heart I’ve seen in a film. Or TH-cam rip. These men should lead the world of surfing for the future.

  • @communistjesus
    @communistjesus 6 ปีที่แล้ว +41

    Paddy Don't surf ------------ Yeah, right. The Atlantic ocean is hella cold. Rocky coastlines and these dudes are out there shredding waves like big kahunas. commitment now that is commitment.

  • @tlb3855
    @tlb3855 6 ปีที่แล้ว +20

    I from south Devon in the uk and have been to some of the remote spots around Scotland’s Thurso east n I’d imagine Ireland is very similar!very few surfers/bodyboards if any at all,Beautiful coastline and empty waves! Beats warm water lineups full of pros with huge egos any day of the week!

    • @iainmcclure416
      @iainmcclure416 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      You just have to surf in Ireland. It really can be as beautiful and empty as these vids show. And as cold. Learnt to surf 30+ years ago in Bundoran, Inishowen.

    • @NegativeAccelerate
      @NegativeAccelerate 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah I’m from Ireland and when I watch TH-cam I get surprised by the amount of surfers in the water. It’s very easy to find an empty beach, even on the sandy part.

    • @geraldwalsh6489
      @geraldwalsh6489 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I am from Cork in Ireland. Spent a week in Devon in the nineties in a beach village called Instow. Visited Linton,Ilfracombe,Westward Ho!,Barnstaple and Bideford to mention a few..... Devon such a beautiful county...almost as nice as County Kerry!!!!

  • @phillipsteiner3581
    @phillipsteiner3581 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    These Irish surfers are great! Love their abilities, and their heart (and balls!). I
    will hit these surf spots when I go to Ireland to go golfing.

  • @retribution999
    @retribution999 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Wonderful, I can smell the fresh cold ocean and the windswept land. Brave young men taking on icy majestic and terrifying waves. You're in heaven guys! Walk with the Gods!

    Great video... just recommended it my brother from Cape Cod... turns out he met Barry close to 20 yrs ago had a couple (probably means several) pints w him.... bought a couple of his drawings which I have seen.... I guess he was a great guy and even offered to find work so my brother could stay and surf... being from The Northeastern US I can understand cold water surfing

    I used to swim in wales a lot when i was younger and it's damn cold and very dangerous. I imagine the Atlantic coast of Ireland would make that look like a paddling pool.

    @luke2803 6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    My favourite parts of this video and thoughts:
    [1] - 0:05 - the Irish summed up in one second.
    [2] - It is amazing that we need English subtitles for an English speaking country.
    [3] - 2:52 He is a small man but got big balls.
    [4] - I have never seen so many untanned surfers.
    [5] -nearly everytime they go surfing, it is a mission to get ready for a surf (botties, hoodie etc.). I respect that
    [6] - 6:16 - this guy shreds.
    [7] - lots of his sponsors left him when he decided to change his life. However, it looks as though red bulled stayed or started?

  • @bleargh22
    @bleargh22 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Amazing. Not a competent surfer myself but the farm/surf lifestyle looks fantastic. Is there accommodation? I'm sure you'd get a few seasonal workers from here willing to help on the farm whle learning the local spots and how to do it cold water style

    Haha most sponsers are so so stupid. In surfing especially, we love riders who do more than just hit the North Shore or Bali for photo shoots and compos the whole time. We always want to see more of surfers like this who have real interesting stories and character. With most alternative sports it is not just about who's winning compos all of the time. Good to see Red Bull gets it.
