What's up

Natxo Gonzalez Scores a Bit of EVERYTHING It's rare that you find a surfer with as diverse a skillset as Natxo Gonzalez. There are high performance rippers, there are chargers, and then there's Natxo, who has beaten his own path from the start. Not happy to just be one of the world’s best big wave surfers, the young Basqueman stars at point breaks and beach breaks across the seven seas, or so it seems from the outside. In My Last Two Winters, Red Bull Surfing’s latest big wave series, we take a look inside the minds of some of big wave surfing’s leaders, and in this first edit that means exploring all things Natxo. If there’s a XXL swell on the charts you can guarantee that no matter where Natxo is in the world he’s plotting a way to intercept it, from pumping Mundaka in Spain to heaving Puerto Escondido in Mexico, and from the wilds of Africa to Portugal’s own Nazaré. It’s not always comfortable but it’s raw and it’s real, and that’s all that matters. Press play above to meet Natxo now, you’re gonna love him.

Inside Barra de la Cruz culture with Mateus Herdy | NO CONTEST Mexico No Contest comes to you from deep in Oaxaca, Mexico, as the Corona Open Mexico serves up warm water barrels and point break perfection at Barra de la Cruz, for the first time since the iconic Rip Curl Search was won here by Andy Irons in 2006. Stab’s Ashton Goggans is back to give you a backstage tour of all things local, from veteran surf-guides of the region to up-and-coming surfers to keep an eye on. We ride shotgun with event wildcards Mateus Herdy and Rio Waida as the two global talents hone their craft alongside the world’s best, all while putting on a free-surfing clinic under a sizzling Pacific sun. Mateus and Rio wrap things up in the kitchen to prepare some local cuisine and raise a toast to another successful edition of No Contest. Salud!

Best Cam Rewinds of 2020 This is usually the time of year for self-reflection — when we reflect on our lives, then plot our next move. But 2020 was no normal year, and it seems like all we’ve been doing for the last nine months is reflecting (mostly on 2019 and how sweet life was when we could surf wherever we wanted), so, at this point most of us are just ready to move forward. And while humankind itself was stunted in this tragic first year in the coronavirus age, the waves kept on pumping… And pumping… And pumping. All over the world. Surfers or no surfers. Shutdowns or no shutdowns. Daylight or no daylight. So, let this 2020 Cam Rewind highlight reel serve as a glorious reminder of why we all surf: because waves equal hope. Life is finite. But waves are forever.
