Derek Hynd - finless forward motion


As readership increases (a new record yesterday)
and correspondence explodes
so many posts are polished emails
from friends

Here is a bit of video that needs no polish


Such great footage!
I see a lot of similarity between how Mr. Hynd rides his finless boards and the lines we draw with our mats.

What do you do with all that speed?

Expect a related interview soon!

Mat? Finless boards? That's what loving the ocean is all about. Why people think it's only about standing there is beyond me.

Loverly!! Awesome footage of a pioneer, stellar is not an overstatement of his motivations.

Warren - Mr Hynd is a very observant fellow

Surfsister - Great! Another gem on Liquid Salt?

Gaz - I have a kite string for an internet connection and I still can't stop watching and listening to the clip. Glad you liked it

And folks lets not forget the music - composer/finless surfer Richard Tognetti playing live at this years' Noosa Festival. The Youtub piracy doesn't do it justice.
