There are so many different elements to surfing. Small waves, big waves, long boards, short boards. This makes it a sport you can share with people.

Kelly Slater

The best version of surfing is not competing, I think. It's just... it's perfect. You're perfectly present. You're perfectly in the moment.

John John Florence
