Me neither.I just don't get it. I didn't dare paddle to the peak and hassle older locals when I was a kid.
You don't have to come from rich parents to be an asshole.I’ve seen kids hassle dudes who are legends in Hawaii. I’m not going to name drop but let’s just say they have more then put in their time and are relatively well known.
But these transplant kids have no idea and just think the dude is another dark guy infringing on their peak.
These kids come from the mainland with rich parents and an obnoxious sense of entitlement
No. You don’t.You don't have to come from rich parents to be an asshole.
That’s exactly what I do. But I’d rather them learn some respect.I don’t get it. It seems like if some grom is dropping in on you, it’s pretty easy to sit right next to said grom and burn the sh!t out of him on every wave he even looks at.
When I first started going to Central America on surf trips I was blown away by the number of Brazilians that just burned me cold. When I protested they threw up their hands in disbelief. My friends, we all started surfing in the early 70s, were also amazed. So I sat back in the lineup and watched what was going on. I guess there is zero etiquette in the water in Brazil. These guys and girls were burning each other happily as frequently as they were burning others and locals? We generally planned trips around big swells and quickly learned that half of Brazil did the same and would meet us there. We now plan strikes when the surf is good but not great, happy to sacrifice quality of surf for peace of mind in the water.A kid accidentally dropping in, honest mistake... OK.
The kids that watch you as you paddle in and start coming down the line, then they drop in? KNEE OF DEATH!!!
If there is a collision you will be at fault and maybe get sued.I don’t get it. It seems like if some grom is dropping in on you, it’s pretty easy to sit right next to said grom and burn the sh!t out of him on every wave he even looks at.
That is funny.A lot of them don't even look. They just go.
There's a kid at Brazil Canyon who has been there a lot over the past month who I've been watching burn guys relentlessly, I went ballistic on him when he did it to me last week...
"Sorry I didn't even know you were there"
"You aren't fvkcing looking"
"I haven't been feeling well, I have mono!"
OK....
Easy to see why the majority are despised by the global consensus of surf, have met some really nice Brazzos in the water but most are very poorly behaved.When I first started going to Central America on surf trips I was blown away by the number of Brazilians that just burned me cold.

Of course not all Brazilian surfers are the same but a very high percentage seem to be. I can safely say that I will never go to Brazil to surf.
