Fergal Smith: Mullaghmore paddle mission - video
The bad weather clears and Ferg drives through the night for a paddle session at Mullaghmore contemplating whether its extra board length or positioning that helps him to score the bombs at Ireland's most infamous big wave spot.

Filthy..cleanest mully ive seen....normally its wild stormy conditions..... air drops woa and that high speed bottom turn stall around 2.18 .
Never seen a tail deck grip on a big gun.
nice but looks like B grade Mundaca.....
A bit less crowded than Mundaka, though.
Love seeing this guys adventures. Not sure why you'd bother comparing it to b grade Mundaka? Just enjoy it for what, and where, it is.
Give me that over b grade Mundaka with 150 angry Spaniards any day
at 6-8' it's like Daly Heads
simply inspirational Fergal...Mullaghmore looks freakin' amazing
every episode is great!! makes me want to book a flight
Tonnta mag have an radio interview with some of the Irish chargers on surfing the west coast of Ireland ,Fantastic well worth tuning in .... .an hour long.
got a link? looked but did not find.
Tonnta Mag home page ...right hand side in orange writing.
Got it
this is the best shitt happening in surfing right now.
it's taking the original premise of Morning of the Earth and updating it to the modern world.
It's like that dreadful commercial turn that Townsend/Cairns took when they bought the whole American money thing into surfing never happened.
How cool is Ferg coming out of a paddle session at Mullaghmore and hoeing into his own home-grown tucker. Still reckon I'd be down the pub for a Guiness and pie if it was me though.
The Guiness and pie was off-camera.
And a wee dram to warm those bones.
Did anyone listen to the radio interview ?
Love watching his stuff.
Fair dinkum Irish bloke surfing raw cold energy.
Awesome stuff, big up.
Great vid, you can see how each wave is so different. Some don't give you an in at all, while others give the perfect launching pad.
Last wave was sweet, double deep barrel.
awesome.
tell me he's not eating spuds.
