Chasing perfect surf in tropical locations is the ultimate adventure for any wave rider, but having big wave legend, Shane Dorian, leading the way equates to one thing… the emphasis is likely to be chasing tube time.

Thank you for watching this video, also watch the other videos on my channel and please subscribe. Surfing is a surface water sport in which an individual, a surfer, uses a board to ride on the forward section, or face, of a moving wave of water, which usually carries the surfer towards the shore. Waves suitable for surfing are primarily found in the ocean, but can also be found in lakes or rivers in the form of a standing wave or tidal bore. Another prominent form of surfing is body boarding, in which a surfer rides the wave on a bodyboard, either lying on their belly, drop knee (one foot and one knee on the board), or sometimes even standing up on a body board. Other types of surfing include knee boarding, surf matting (riding inflatable mats) and using foils. Body surfing, in which the wave is caught and ridden using the surfer's own body rather than a board, is very common and is considered by some surfers to be the purest form of surfing. The closest form of body surfing using a board is a hardboard which normally has one strap over it to fit on one hand.
