Just cracked open the November issue of Surfer Magazine and if you have a chance, take a look at two pictures of Shane Dorian.
The first shot is from the epic sessions in late July at Teahupoo, Tahiti, with Dorian slotted in a backhand barrel so big you could drive a U-Haul truck through it.
The second shot is designed to generate interest in the story on progressive surfing, and Dorian is shown in a sequence blasting up and over the lip on his forehand...as hot a snap as you'll see anyone do today.
So this got me thinking: is Shane Dorian the most versatile surfer in the world right now? I mean, it's difficult to think of anybody who maintains such a high level of performance in both big and small waves.
One other note: the former star of In God's Hands looks to be losing his hair. Oh well, happens to the best of 'em.
