Beaches worldwide are slowly getting locked down as we try to get on top of the wildfire of Covid-19, and for some, it’s just too much to bear. Take this gentleman, who upon spotting completely empty and perfect waves reeling down the point at Malibu couldn’t fight the urge to break out his SUP and stick it to the man.
His solo sash soon attracted the attention of the law, with a foot patrol, two boats and a bunch of drones joining what would have to be the slowest, and perhaps most comical, police chase of all time.
Let this serve as a warning for those surfers here in OZ who are still flouting social distancing laws. Find a way to do it reasonably or this could be us in the very near future. IN-OUT and don’t fuck about. And please, if there is the option to surf a more uncrowded peak down the beach, please take it, and maybe we can all get through this trying time while still enjoying the anxiety release of surfing.
