Cy's Sunrise Lefts

1135

This sequence was taken from my recent trip to S. America. My girl's been studying abroad down there for a few months so I headed down for some lovin' and long lefts. I purposefully didn't bring any camera equipment except for a little HD Go Pro camera. The morning of what was supposedly the swell of the season, my girlfriend and I woke up before dawn and navigated ######s to empty spinning lefts. For forty-five minutes we shared sunrise lefts. Eventually the pack paddled out and the camera fogged up, so I ditched the head rig and shared perfect waves with the locals all day. I'm stoked to have these opening rides recorded, it was a session I'll never forget...

Very very nice.

Did you mount it on a Gath helmet or something like that? I have one of those cameras, but have only used it while snowboarding. I'm not too keen on attaching it to my surfboard so I'm looking for alternatives.

Where is this in S. America? Did I miss it somewhere?

I understand you might want to avoid mentioning the break, but country? region?

Incredible video - got me so stoked on an exhausting Tuesday at work.

Ahhh, that hurts this time of year. Soooooo buttery.

I'm a bit confused, though, Duckdive: you're not Cyrus Sutton, are you? I thought the Korduroy guys were based down south?

I believe he copied/pasted the Video description. It's not the first time this confusion has come up. Perhaps some kind of attribution would help. Either that of DDive, come clean and stop holding out such sweet vids on us! :D
