Conner Coffin illustrates his commitment to the rail, either swinging off the top at J'Bay, or holding a deep line at Cloudbreak.

'Indulgence' by Social Distortion makes a fitting soundtrack.

Awesome. Something about power surfing which never goes out of style. Kind of like the sound track, good old school guitar some much better than that so called R & B of which there is zero rhythm and no blues. And don't get me started on a fricken vocoder!

That was sick. Throw in a red eyed shaka with that surfing and the g-string and we coulda been transported back to Munga Malitia 90's. Love it.

Unreal. The CB section was sick. Didn’t realise how good he was in the bigger stuff. So smooth at J-Bay too.

"Indulgence' by Social Distortion makes a fitting soundtrack"

Fitting in its irony that the clip is bookended by shots of Conner in front of an American flag.
Great surfing as always, but the US cultural imperialism in the symbology of the images can go fuck it self.

Perhaps burning the flag would be social distortion.

GO Conner!!! ripping and ripping us off.

A bit harsh (cos I favour raw power surfing) but he started it with his political USA crap, combined with being a king of cool culture - this makes for a worse world.

Get real Conner: burn your flag.

Fuck, I accidentally deleted a post on Conner being a cunt, and now I don't have time to rehash it.

Stu - if you can repost it - would be much appreciated. All good if not.

Hard to go past Curren at J-Bay though aye. No one even comes close.
