- Dave Rastovich has had the privilege of travelling the world as a professional freesurfer. In Rasta's travels he has been exposed to the worlds most breath taking wonders as well as the contrasting destructions that man has carried out. Driven by his personal beliefs and convictions Rasta is far more than just a surfer and devotes large portion of his time to combatting the ever growing issue of ocean pollution and the affects it has on it's inhabitants. Like the great Steve Erwin and as fruity as it sounds Rasta is somewhat of a wildlife warrior and will continue to fight for the protection of all marine life.

His opening comments about describing surfing and not having to understand something are for me the perfect explanations of surfing
You watch these pro surfers do these I surf or even Kelly Slater...man bottom line is they surf cause it makes them happy. They do it out of love...you find me other sports where guys will go play professionally then head back out for the soul...surfers do! And that is why is i surf...for the love of it, heals the soul and puts a smile on my face whenever i'm in the water!
Yeah, to me it's beauty, meditation, therapy, love and pure joy all wrapped together.
Just amazing. No pretence, no posturing, no arrogance.
Just living it. You can see it in his eyes - he's lit up.
surfed with him today at my local break 10-6-11 and his style is amazing. by far my favorite surfer in and out of the water.
This guy bought a sandwich in front of me in line today....After watching this I wish I had spoke to him...
I love this. Captures just what it feels like and how I feel about it. Thank you, Dave Rastovich! He has such a great vibe and surf style.
I have to travel 3hrs to surf shitty ice cold waves but I love it....great video!
It is a board styled on the ones the native Hawaiians used, just a plank of wood with a flat tail, rounded nose and no fin. Rasta is using a short one styled on traditional longboards of around 12 foot used by the natives. The Chiefs of tribes used sizes of up to 25ft as a show of their status.
What a level minded individual. Guy got me super stoked. Rastovich is the man.
My favorite one of the series for sure
Dave Rastovich, thankyou, i have just been inspired.
He came as close as it is possible to explain the feeling of surfing. Props to him
Rasta is a legend. In his own little world, wish I could live that life.
Brilliant. I'm forever trying to explain why I'm so tired but so energised after a surf but it's so hard to explain how it makes you feel. Not sure about e water though, you swallow enough anyway in a sesh. Great video.
need more people like RASTA in the world! LEGEND.......!!!!!
The purest surfer ever! Glad to have shared Taapuna with him.
Never stop surfing Dave.
now here's a surfer with a brain. refreshing...
The water where I live is so good that literately nobody drinks bottled water, just tap. I'm so grateful for that.
This. This is beautiful.
Beautiful.
That was amazing.
Rasta my Hero

He has the best job in the world! Surfing just for surfing, without having to compete and getting paid to do it!
though only 3 minutes long, this is the most profound clip about surfing I've ever seen.

ahh omg he is right .. it is like describing a colour 2 a blind person and telling someone surfing which they never done before .. it's like you gotta do it 2 find out what it's like :D i never really gonna stop surfing it's a the sport ever x
Surfing is a drug. It's a stimulant, a rush that envelopes you but at the same time it's slowing you down, making you see and feel like nothing is real and time stands still. It's explaining the unexplainable without using words.
great comparison
Soul surfer
