Portugal Jordy Smith: Youthful Fire Makes Way for Sage Philosophy!
By Magicseaweed on
Portugal -- the land of a whole load of wave opportunities. Beachies, points, Nazare (if you're that way inclined). And Peniche is the beating heart of it all. Everyone knows this, especially Jordy Smith, those ramps and barrels are actually suited to all of Smith's 6'3" frame.
And Mr Smith's come a long way since 2011, all that youthful fire in his belly. Remember all the old guard were to be swept off their perches by the young broom, but no, they grimly hung on. And once where you would have encountered hot-headed youth, now you’ll find a sage and philosophical campaigner, more so now after recovering from a near career-ending injury. Hit play above to take a spin with Jordes.
