During this scorching Summer of swell, it is always cool to look back on Winter with a fond, keep-your-distance sort of nostalgia. Luckily enough, Hunter Rainis and Robert Bellairs were able to make this a reality.

Bellairs took on the freezing cold for a while to watch our good friend Hunter surf during this past Winter 2018. A shortie and a goodie, Hunter rips his home break up during a snowy, offshore day of head-high surf (Rainis is 6’4″).

Love our Winters, but not ready to let go of our tropical East Coast weather yet. For now, this video is the closest I’ll get to a 5 mil (:

Enjoy. Vid/Edit: Rob Bellairs @robellairs
