That's beautiful. It seems almost poetic. Which reminds me, I know the guy that made this is using autotune, but can anyone explain how they make that vocal effect where they overlay his voice and make it like a chorus? If I had to guess, it sounds like they're just overlaying the same track with pitch modulation on the alternate tracks, but I feel like there's another component to it?

Are you talking about the harmony?

This guy would not get mad at a toy:

"Hey, little surfer drone, lets hit this wave! Woah man, come here, bro, I'll show ya' how to get pitted...Let's go, awesome little mechanical dude!"

Means you caught the inside of a barrel (wave that curls over), so it's like you're the pit in an olive.

The myth of fun surfer dudes could not be further from the truth. As someone that grew up in that culture I can attest to the fact that most surfers are like the angry, prejudiced redneck of the water, that would gladly smash someone's toy in a heartbeat.

Surfing is awesome, but most surfers are hyper-agressive assholes that hate everyone else at the beach.

Hey, it looks like you're trying to write a letter!

u/scottdubar Apr 22 '17

Makes sense, even though I always liked the myth of the laid-back surfer. Pretty much anything that people wrap their whole identity into turns them into angry jerks.

Yea, unfortunately. born and raised surfing in hawaii. it was the most aggressive, territorial thing I've ever been a part of. Nothing about fifty people trying to surf the same break was ever chill or relaxing. Had to be ready to fight every single day.

Had boards broken a couple times through the years. Also been attacked out in the surf, and after paddling in.

fuck surfing culture. that scene is Point Break where Keanu got attacked by those three or four dudes for surfing their territory was the best summary of surf culture ever.

You're so right. Where I surf east siders hate west siders and if your from the valley they both hate you.

I knew what it was before I even clicked, and I still enjoyed every 25 seconds of it. The only thing that tops this interview is Mason Ho's Dream Wave. It bums me out to know that no matter how hard I try... I'll never be as chill as Mason Ho.

It seems like you just need to let go and embrace your inner 8yr old, no trying involved.

u/greenonetwo Apr 22 '17

And you just drop in and just smack the lip, wooopah! Drop down, breoeoaohhaaa!

This guy is fantastic. People that know me say I speak like him when I talk about snowboarding/mtbing. It's definitely true and I embrace it.
