    So many times I have stood at those cliffs taking in the grandeur and the Majesty and the wind and the sky. Never in my wildest imagination did I think human beings would venture out into that fierce Atlantic. From an old surfer.

    Hi John thanks for your video and your message to this dark world about Jesus who said I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD HE WHO FOLLOWS ME WILL NOT WALK IN THE DARKNESS BUT WILL HAVE THE LIGHT OF LIFE I met you many years ago surfing a wave in the river Tyne and had a beer in a bar after and we both have similar testimonies how we came to Christ in Australia So glad to see your still surfing and going on with Jesus and so so happy to hear you’re a shining light as a city on a hill can’t be hidden. I’ve read a couple of negative comments from the blind people full of bitterness but shine brighter John and HE will keep on blessings your life with perfect waves and blessings on your family Regards Davo ❤❤❤

So much to learn here if you just search for it. Keep it going!!

One world, controlled & monitored with one man running it. The world is going to Pandamonia, before we get Utopia. God wants us to be ready and to be hope-filled as things continue to move in that direction. Good News, Good Waves:) Jmc

    So frustrating to see nobody doing any nice carves or re entries, or big turns, in fact most just went straight or tried to catch a barrel but unless you are deep and take off behind the peak that doesn't happen either. Word of advice on the video, the footage is great the music is way too loud and repetitive, try turning it down some.
