Dave Rastovich (Rasta) in the Free way

[WalangMagawaProd]

Love watching this guy rip! If he'd been a goofy, he'd be my favorite :-) Either way, still amazing to watch. I've seen him in a video once doing some sick lay back. Really amazing!

[macgroveinc]

damm first 10 seconds

[macgroveinc]

nice



[TheAlle32]

Rasta is on another planet. And thats fucken Awesome.

[RemedyOcean]

Wooo! Who :)

[rmalasarn]

Phenomenal human being, super stylish surfer, and friend and activist to and for the ocean...who watches something like this and clicks "dislike"? Stay positive...enjoy the ride.

[kiwimale1]

smelling the sea ....lived the vibe ...OMG life returned in youtube !!!

[lv42daze]

dude has the old pottz roundhouse cutback down!

[madrodify]

PS: Dave is still a rad surfer!

[madrodify]

Not my cup of tea and not a fan of the music either. No biggie, just my opinion.

[naimabariri]

oh my god i love this song !!

can anyone tell me another beautiful song of shpongle plz :) or any other surf soul song thx

[Richyneedham]

wouldnt mind a shot of the quad fin

[miked1997]

He and rob machado both have great style. They both surf for because they love it and only that reason. Not for money

[SwayLocks]

so is that a twin fin or a thruster?

[boxfresh666]

@justWatchin97 the surfer riding at 2:48 is definitely thicker and more built than Rasta is. Looks like Margo to me...

[tompasF]

such an amazing style

[tomtomiz]

I´ve never heard of him before, but his barrels are sick and he has such a smoof style. He doesn´t seem like one of the kelly slater 'my ambition is killing me'- guys, he looks like he is surfing for surfing´s sake.

[MrOgbologbo]

He's my favourite surfer, no doubt!

The only free surfing, ganja-smoking, world travelling, board-testing and environment friendly ripper of all times!

I respect you Dave!

[TheSponger4life]

god why can we have waves this good on the obx

[justWatchin97]

hahahahaha at 2:48 he tries a snap for the first time and fails XD

[justWatchin97]

shall be a happy day when he learns to do more than just cutbacks

[11Tupa]

Hey that is retro fishboard twin fins just awesome...

[Smadden1194]

@11Tupa how tall u think? in the 6's?

[Smadden1194]

such sick surfing, i can tell its a fish but wat kinda a board is that at 1:25?? 

[DANIELRJ]

Amazing surf.

Amazing music.

BR

[bovineuniversity1290]

This guy is incredible.

short board, mini mal, nose riding, body boarding etc,etc.

He even lets you see a couple of his fuck up's which is awesome.

The fact that hes promoting and doing something about the environment, while hes travelling the world is awesome.

Cheers to you dave for living the dream i can only wish for.

On ya mate.

[dnltsn]

amazing waves, good surfers, nice surfboards and the better sound track...

great!

[MAGALYDECHILE]

Esto es estilo y libertad.! Surf Dave Rastovich (rasta)

[kadend96]

Hmmm i wonder if this guy smokes weed?...... Nahhh definitely not........

[noho40]

Why is everyone so jealous of Rasta! stop hating you fucking losers

[migueltreze]

This is a truly great video. Awsome surfer.

[11Tupa]

he is a really surfer coz he rides every kind of surfboard perfectly I love his retro style with his awesome fish twin fins, many lol people think that fish its only for begineers or transitions but thats false to ride it is prety hard you need a lot of technique for surf on...And some say its impossible take off on hollow waves or barrel waves hahaha I am sure people say that they only surf their shortboards....

Be a good surfer learn ride on any kind of surfboard and have fun...

[11Tupa]

@11Tupa yeah, people like that piss me off. like they say, a good tradie never blames his tool's

[mannyangel1989]

what kind of board is he riding?

[TheBlueHandOfDeath]

@mannyangel1989 i think it's a superfish

[Peuuuuuuu]

he looks like a retarded while tube riding ... lol

[itopus1]

This guy flies, Magnificent !

[Pinnacle89]

Awesome video....a little different than the normal surf vids i see. Every one who shoots surf video should take a lesson from this one. *thumbs up* And of course great surfer....

[sproutz101]

self confessed rasta hater, this guy doesn't charge, doesn't rip, cruises along on his fish. he should just go back to byron and rant about environmental awareness along with all of the other pointless hippies.

[uberscheisse]

@sproutz101 well judging by your comment, he's having waaaay more fun than you, you penis-vacuuming hack.

[lordofsweat6]

@sproutz101 You are a stupid person. Why are you watching Rasta clips if you hate him?? Get a life!!

[noho40]

@sproutz101 haha Do you charge fag? I doubt it. you sound like you just want a reaction. well here's one,

you're probably a kook fuck who never surfed 1/10 the amount of waves and locatons as did RASTA!!.

Two, polution fucks our oceans and waves So why wouldn't you RANT you ignorant skank.

[Foshizzlerriffic]

ha at 2:00 it looks like liam neason

[rastavibe1989]

Hes riding a single fin in those barrels...what a beast

[exposefraud]

@VincentBProductions I'm well aware of the placebo effect and the real physiological effects that can result as demonstrated in the new research involving PET scans.

If any of these type of scams were to print PLACEBO EFFECT ONLY on the box I wouldn't have to bother to make a comment.

[gobig67]

rob machado wannabe?

[ozeeSF]

I didn't know Wayne Rooney could surf!! Check out 1:59.....

[Fredinho209]

what a freak way to get barreled !

just amazing dude

[sparky7718]

So.... is this the "new thing" ? Flailing your arms about, trying to look as dorky as possible. Cowabunga style is cool ? What a total poser. Yeah, yer all earthy and such. Watch "George Carlin, Saving the Planet"

[Brightwell357]

@sparky7718 He is way better than you ever dreamed of being. Your probably the guy who kills the vibe in the water, turning everthing into a competition. Learn to have fun.

[dominic118]

first wave I jizzed in my pants

[abelkill8]

what spot is this man? looks so amazing.

[TheBeaconsGuru]

rasta is really good at surfing but is really wierd

[xcorsary]

I believe, that more than an artist of surfing, he's an artist of life. Keep the good vibe Rasta! you really inspire many of us!

[jonno69098887776766]

this guy is such a sick surfer. one of the best in the world i would say. makes it all look smooth.

[WordOfTheDay69]

Sick last name

[cbsurfrat]

rasta kills it!

[marleySux]

he surfd soooo much better on the thrister

[lfsgp]

What fish board is that? What size? Doesn`t look short!

Very nice surfing... i love the smoothness

[mrawesomebodyboarder]

this guy has the best style surfing and he also is has such a fun vibe to be around. I saw him at Noosa and had a conversation with him. He is so nice and has a really good cause for his surfing

[madsteeez]

ive known this song for a long time. it fits these pictures utterly well

[florida303]

what the hell is he doing in the barrel?

[Gettingbakedful]

Cool vid. Font be a hater alligators

[exposefraud]

What a shame to see Rasta endorsing the latest new age SCAM.

Power Balance is yet another of the holographic disc SCAMS making outrageous claims that cannot be substantiated because the so called "science" behind such products does not exist despite claims made by the company.

Rasta should distance himself from this and any other similar scams ASAP.

Australian TV has already exposed the bracelet.

Google:

Power Balance Bracelets on Today Tonight 22/12/2009.

[exposefraud]

test

[Veetveet3]

really wish Shpongle wasn't included in this tools video...

[youlosez]

0:46 Quasimodo in the barrel. Chee hee!!!

[polfer123]

if i start yoga and get a fish , i would jump off a bridge, gay 2 demenishional surfing. barrel and a cutback. dave should take lessons from larry bertlemann, real sole surfing with some spontinaity. althose wanting retro , go back in time. some barn from austrailia, dose not have it.

[smuurph]

@polfer123 so you are saying that surfing a fish is gay

[polfer123]

NO, not at all. I respect fish for the transition for beginners, from long board to a fish would be a good step in learning surfing. then after that a quad, and then a thruster, and then the polf tail. there are practical steps to learning surfing and the potential to draw out the best in a surfer. for guys like DORN. who have made fishing an art. lots of respect!!

[nzwarrior89]

ur an idiot...! simple

[polfer123]

@nzwarrior89 thank u

[Verdan79]

Great style!! Realy a soul surfer.

[dorcenwww]

Hmm Rasta comes across as a tosser, his marketing team trying hard to ring every cent out of the pseudo hippie dream - Dave you can surf I will give you that - but surf company marketing is relentless

[upsidedahead]

u r naive if u think its that simple

[upsidedahead]

Nice to see you are on first name terms with old Mate....

But if you think it's that simple then you obviously don't know Rasta

[johnwsch]

yew

[sixstringsensei]

Wow! This guy is incredible.

[bazookasawaserpent]

1:08... he's charging full price

[supriya55]

thx ripadores, mundarda! i've just discovered a cool artist, awesome.

[mundarda]

Shpongle track 2 I think off tales of the inexpressible

[supriya55]

anyone know the song!?!

[ripadores]

Dorset perception by Shpongle

[ArtuRider]

Is his retro board a single fin or a twin fin?

[duood]

twin

[ArtuRider]

Thanks

[11Airshow11]

This guy is sweet, I wish I could ride my fish as good as him

[elidarossoneri]

hey RastoVicH...........I ♥ u!!!!!!!!

[spookcow]

dude i have no idea who this guy is,

but i fucking LOVE his style!

[yellow4231]

He is an Australian free surfer who's sponsored by billabong...he is such a hippie and is easily my favourite free surfer of all time.

[ripadores]

I think he's from New Zealand, not Australia

[longcoste]

he spent his younger years on a farm in nz, when he was still pretty young he moved to the goldcoast, pretty sure he was 6 or something? aussie or kewi he's a mad surfer.

[Robbiesrk]

@yellow4231 He's from New Zealand mate...

[bonbondesel]

Rasta has got such a beautiful and non academic style !! It's like he's flying inside the barrel ! And these carves are so great... A great personality out of the paved ways...

[spookcow]

i love how he puts his arms xD

[Moreirinho]

6 feet barrels damm! i wish you could see some of those where i live

[tioN4]

where do you live?

[xxxbakirxxx]

prodigy - warrior's dance . that song goes really well with this vid for some reason

[SonnyShadow]

get paid to travel and surf the best waves in the world?

rasta is living my dream.

[BertilUlfsson]

it's all basically about testing out new gear in various conditions, pushing the limits as far as surfboard design goes and basically just being a good profile for the company. plus this bloke used to compete as well, he's coming from that background

[lucasmatao]

incredible

[tosh8711]

dose any1 know the name of this song?

[ripadores]

Dorset perception

[Ibbotson1987]

I have no idea how he rips so hard, especially on his fish! Legend

[1indian1muslim]

this braddah rips! that board wit da fish tail ... so sick!

[Kinotriter]

this was great. Tightly edited, classic photography and cool-as music.

He's right-on-TIME!

[Frankthetank252]

woah nosph66, you're a douche.

[Frankthetank252]

i love how wide he is spreading his arms in the barrel.

[blaso28]

yesssss

[racerxxx12]

rasta is the essence of a surfer...so pure and soulful...never too far from the true roots

[nosph66]

I cannot stomach this guy. His moto, do nothing in life but surf, and somehow get loads of money for it. I don't know how he does it. This guy is such a moron.

[yomutha1991]

"do nothing in life but surf"? Do your research before you insult. He's travelling the world in pursuit of environmental protection.

The reason he makes so many surf vids is so he can finance his travels as well as being respected enough for an opinion. Don't hate someone for being a good person

[Nelos31]

you wrong

[jonathankarkar]

dude how stupid u are man. if u knew a little more about him u would probably remove ur stupid comment. dave rasta and other artists musicians are protecting wales and dolphins. might not be enought for you i no and that dude is really concerned about the environment and is such in balance with himself and nature. i bet u dont like him cause he s paid and he doesnt even compete right? that dude is a soul surfer man. one of the fiew in this world.

[mcb3946]

your a bitch he's the man for that

[lunesur]

does anyone know the the name of the song?

[dazzadoobs]

pretty sure the song is "dorset perception" by Spongle

[lunesur]

Thanks!!

[serrambikilla]

rasta is the man. Perfect style. Ripping with that board? The guy is a legend.

[masterexploder83]

0:32 to 0:49 awesome style in the tube.

[quadfin1234]

Got aloha?

[bonbondesel]

Great !!! lovely style. like Tudor, Frankenreiter, Machado or Lopez... He's got a pure stylish flow !

[rojox2]

I must agree that rastovich fits in the same category with these guys...i'm assuming you're talkin about Gerry lopez though, right?
