Sad to hear this news. Although I'm from Hawaii my wife is from South Africa so we had someone to cheer for on the tour. We as bodyboarders need to have more support from big money companies and a group that will do all for the events and not their own endeavors. I salute you for picking your wife and family over your own hobby. Respect and hope to meet you one day on the Big Island🤙🏽

I heard that they couldn't afford to pay the prize money last year. The money situation definitely sucks. When you're one of the best in the world, travel everywhere you shouldn't have to pay for it, you should be rewarded for your ability. I never competed professionally, but I won a few high school contests, but I had a few friends that competed on the PSAA California tour and first prize was like 600 bucks. We did it because we loved it. Very few people made it in the business. Mike and Jay did alright I guess.

2:41 what you said here really touches home. I'm also in a very high demand career which often times makes me put my family and friends on the backburner. It's the first time I've heard someone else with a high demanding career point out the selfishness in putting MY career aspirations above time with my family and friends. And how selfless and loving they are for allowing me to do so "without argument". I think I need to remind myself of this perspective daily.

Sounds totally sensible to me Iain. I enjoy your channel and I can understand your logic about wanting to give back more to the sport that you've had so much success in and has given you so much. Health and wellbeing and happiness and those closest to us are definitely the most important things in life, more important than achievements alone which lets face it are empty without those fundamental things. We can all see your high level cutting-edge wave riding on here through your excellent video content which is totally inspiring. You're at the top of your game and I don't think you've got too much to prove to anyone. I remember in one of your older videos you discussing your ulcerative colitis and how it impacted your life and here talking about how mental stress can be a contributory factor. I've been riding myself 30 years but in recent years I've suffered IBS and a hiatus hernia as well as stress at times which has really impacted on my bodyboarding and my ability to even do it at times - or to the point that I've had to readjust my entire approach to wave riding sessions and what I expect out of them as I've gotten older. Nowadays for me its just about the fun and going back to basics and listening to my body as opposed to pushing myself and trying to ride harder, faster and higher. But I can still get the buzz. All the best with your plans for 2024 - I look forward to watching the content to come! 🤙

It's a long journey, but fasting (intermitent, prolonged), was and is something Ive learned that completely changed my health situation positively. Ofc there are other things that help me a lot, but fasting was and is the biggest game changer for me. After it I came back swimming and surfing. Hope it helps you. Cheers

Hardballs just dropped some inspirational words about his link with the Ocean too. As we grow up, what drove us around it evolves into something more personal. And curiously, chasing the world title IMPLIES selfishness and IS already a personal thought. But as time goes by, this personal thought which was some kind of achievment (like winning titles), becomes more deep thoughts about understanding the Ocean and what can it brings to our life and health. As a french boogieboarder, I always liked the book "The old man & the sea", written by Hemingway : the story of an old man trying to catch the biggest fish and bringing it back to his home. What you learn in the end is that the most greatest human adventure leans in the path we chose rathen than the quest itself. Now that your a "wise guy" and have already caught the title, there's a lot more to learn from the Ocean and I really like how you handle all this with humility and happiness. You're one of the most inspirational rider today. Your video trip to the Maldives, like I told you, brought so much emotions : this was way more than just an IBC trip and we could already perceive a new path opening to you. Hope to see you in France one day, and thanks again for your kind words at Christmas for my brother Louis, yewww

If you can do that without it I'd say that's a better move. Obviously you rip. I think you have more impact through KZitem keeping the sport alive and passing on the knowledge and love. Keep shredding and keep the stoke alive! 🤙🏽🫡
