[NevermindProducts]

[that0neguy69]

This man has a beautiful way with words...

[giomonserate]

I love this. Captures just what it feels like and how I feel about it. Thank you, Dave Rastovich! He has such a great vibe and surf style.

[UNIVERSSOUL]

awesome words, the result of be conciseness.



[FALLENxS0UL]

This. This is beautiful.

[jmckeown035]

did you know people pee in the ocean

[PaoloReda88]

the ride from 1:00 to 1:08 is f*ing amazing!!

[trashandglitter]

hey rasta, man, want to lend me that sick alaia?

[letsgotowar666]

i want to surf soooooo bad

[skisunshine]

The guy has way too much style.......gonna be taking the 5'10 Twinny out to Morocco in 11 days :))))))

not sure im gonna drink the water out there after it rains, probably end up with Hep A.....

still if i get barreled it'll be worth it

I Love Surfing

[Screeoo]

@skisunshine Desert Point?

[markusfarkus69]

@billyblaze111 You probably have no idea who Rasta is. He gets paid less to surf than most surfers because he chose the path of a free surfer. He doesn't compete, he doesn't go out and win heats or get ranked, in fact I don't even think he's in the top 100. He is one of the rare few who surfs for a living... sure he does get paid to surf, but I can guarentee you he isn't living a life of riches like Kelly Slater... he probably just gets by comfortably.

[braydosamigos]

0:24

[billyblaze111]

He surfs because he gets paid to. If he didn't get paid to this video would be called "I work because..." Don't buy the hype of this type of marketing ploy. Surf when you can but get a freeking job so you don't suck the life out of surfing by turning it into some corpo money making scheme like this guy.

[jarridtstube]

@billyblaze111 i would like to see what you would say if a company offered you money to surf.... get over it dude you clearly just jealouse, and btw rasta walked away from billabong because he just wanted to surf and do no comps but was lucky enough that they re signed him as a free surfer

[johnsonspeedkiller]

that board that he made is so sick!

[HawaiianB0Y123]

I love these videos

[bartonclark2121]

what is the name of the song near the end of the vidio?

[kylemtb15]

i now drink the ocean water before a session

[motocross6522]

ahh omg he is right .. it is like describing a colour 2 a blind person and telling someone surfing which they never done before .. it's like you gotta do it 2 find out what it's like :D i never really gonna stop surfing it's a the sport ever x

[252BeachBum]

Rasta >  Machado

[ballsdeep187]

Drinking saltwater makes you crazy

[bag3ro]

Never stop surfing Dave.

[hanaleifish]

Rasta is a legend. In his own little world, wish I could live that life.

[BlissGoesRawr]

what's the closing song?

[verityandstu]

Just amazing. No pretence, no posturing, no arrogance.

Just living it. You can see it in his eyes - he's lit up.

[letsgotowar666]

@verityandstu yes very true

[chasewentz]

What a level minded individual. Guy got me super stoked. Rastovich is the man.

[cgarcia171]

He's the Chicken lol now all he needs is a bored in the shape of a piece of corn

[tikatikatilly]

is a proof that it is fucking amazing ,3

[RoyStewart]

This is nonsense if non surfers couldn't understand surfing then no one would take it up as a pastime. It's a stupid arrogant thing to say that one can't explain it.

[sapaap]

yeah i went skateboarding with Dave one time and right before we shredded the mini-half pipe he ate some of the wood

[ADDrific]

Surfing is a drug. It's a stimulant, a rush that envelopes you but at the same time it's slowing you down, making you see and feel like nothing is real and time stands still. It's explaining the unexplainable without using words.

[Pattoopp]

he is a fucking genius

[TheJlenno22]

surfed with him today at my local break 10-6-11 and his style is amazing. by far my favorite surfer in and out of the water.

[HoOtErZ111]

need more people like RASTA in the world! LEGEND.......!!!!!

[Pigroota]

"You don't need to understand it"..... "I drink some water so that my body understands it" . Contradiction much?

That kind of understanding has a name. It's called tacit knowledge and not everything that can't be explained is "fucking awesome". Take driving or breathing for example. I'm sorry, but this guy is a douche

[kazsurfs1]

@Pigroota "Experience alone can give a final answer. The knowledge gained in a few years by a commission of the kind suggested would be worth more than volumes of mere assertions and contradictions."

[afonsoDS]

The one guy who didn't like this video is an asshole

[RoyStewart]

@afonsoDS Thre people actually, sex unknown except in my case.

[RoyStewart]

@afonsoDS 3 out of 300.... we are the one percent you are the 99% herd animals sucking the propaganda.

[afonsoDS]

@RoyStewart do u think this is about the propaganda ???? man now serious ur an ass this isn't about propagante is abou surf as a life slyte ! seriously man

[elstado1]

champion. if one we had more surf breaks and coast lines to accommodate the ever increasing masses.

[busshman75]

Fuck he got it so right............

[Clempt90]

I dont surf but after watching that I certainly will now :)

[jttowers007]

[Nathanbezwik]

Amazing person

[kronos1993]

someone was so amazed he pressed dislike instead of like i think

[hulza]

The ending song is "The ghost and the darkness" from Carnivores, i think. 

[georgeizhere]

Dave Rastovich, thankyou, i have just been inspired.

[042499mac]

that guys got it gooodddddddd



[brookehannah87]

I love him

[3sgtepwnzr]

though only 3 minutes long, this is the most profound clip about surfing I've ever seen.

[verityandstu]

@3sgtepwnzr

Yeah.

My thought exactly. 

[TheDanielGalera]

What the name of all song?

[megableeker3]

what is the ending song??

[TheNakedMoustache]

@megableeker3 Carnivores - the ghost and the darkness

[jbirdola]

1 person doesn't know why he/she surfs

[CoralbeepoufC]

WTH is with that 1 dislike

[kersez]

You HAVE to surf til the day you die. If you don't still surf, you probably never really did.

[SlideYourSoul]

Billabong please! What is the closing song!

[turbojorge]

Amazing!

[Dave94Dude]

damn this is so awesome 1:00 - 1:09

[SuperLorne1]

[StorrorBlog]

@tymotoboy53 pussy

[MrBradyiscool]

How does he catch waves with just a preice of ply wood?

[MrBradyiscool]

This gy is awesome

[Tiger4Elnino]

i was trying to think of one of those "there is one person who is..." but the one person who disliked this, must live a life of sorrow.

[eminent4life]

These videos are SO well made..

[andreisidro]

He has the best job in the world! Surfing just for surfing, without having to compete and getting paid to do it!

[Tuber1der]

now here's a surfer with a brain. refreshing...

[bobajob77]

bet he wouldn't 'drink a little bit of the water' up in the NE UK, not without getting hepatitis anyway..

[elrayaqui]

Yeah compadre!!!! Life is some deep shit hey????
