Those locked inside the world of WSL and air-reverses and 5’11” shortboards might draw a blank when the name Jared Mell is uttered. However, those who find their surfing kicks outside that channel regard him highly.
The guy is a wiz on left-of centre craft, and recently he took his eclectic quiver on a jaunt to Costa Rica.
There are a lot of Tracks readers who may hate on this, but one thing you can’t deny is the fun oozing from every pore in this clip. The smile never leaves the face of Mr Mell.
Could a few different boards, and a couple less fins in your quiver be the secret to surfing serenity?
