Watch: Oscar Langburne // Dancing Barefoot

Oscar Langburne
Swellnet Dispatch

Surfing is a super fun part of my life. Don’t know how to explain it but it’s just such a fucking beautiful thing.

From being inspired by Asher, Steph, Rob, Parko, Craig, Creed, Tom Curren, and people who never look like they’re fighting the wave to also seeing the joy surfing gives most people... kids starting out, old people just floating around with a smile.

There are no airs in it cause if people wanna watch airs it’s not going to be me it’s going to be the best guys like Ryan, Jon, Chippa, Taj, all those crazy good surfers or kids and younger guys like Noah, Eli, Shane and Cole. Maybe in another clip or maybe not.

Thanks to all the Indo locals for sharing the waves everywhere we went.

Title is a sick Patti Smith song called Dancing Barefoot

Hope people dig it
Oscar

P.S Oh and the claims on one wave haha... I just got bit over excited.

Yep, definitely. Lovely style, seems like a good kid. But he forgot to mention Marky, Ricky, Danny, Terry, Mikey, Davey, Timmy, Tommy, Joey, Robby, Johnny, and Brian.

Best clip I've watched in ages
Shades of Machado
Unforced surfing
Not a single shit air anywhere
If he can take his style to the air it's going to be a game changer.
Shredlord beyond his years

Those were not claims either
Just expressions of stoke

Saw Oscar surf on the south coast a few years back and was super impressed with his style and approach to waves. Definitely someone for my 2 young sons to base their attitude towards surfing on. Great work.........

Love the old school round-house cutties
Some of the surfing there looked like a young Occy
Nice change to see a wave being surfed rather than air

Cool style, great at shredding any wave he gets on it seems.
A little bit Dave Rasta-esk for mine.
Go you, kid :)

Go Oscar ,
nothing better than watching a gifted surfer tear without effort . I will watch any future video of this guy without hesitation . And his comment on aggression is bang on too . If you are struggling with the whole surfing act . . . reconsider your future as a surfer !

Now imagine how he'd go if they incorporated "Style" as a judging criteria in the WSL, that would cause a few upsets.
