The Greatest Bodyboarders of All Time | Volume 1

Watch a collection of phenomenal wave rides by world bodyboarding champions Pierre-Louis Costes, Joana Schenker, Ayaka Suzuki, Amaury Lavernhe, and Claudia Ferrari. Pierre-Louis Costes is one of the most popular and influential professional bodyboarders of the 21st century. The French won his first world title, aged 21, going into the last event at El Frontón in contention with his idols Jeff Hubbard, Ryan Hardy, and Guilherme Tâmega. Joana Schenker is the queen of European bodyboarding. Schenker won four back-to-back European Tour of Bodyboard (ETB) titles (2014-2017) and seven consecutive national titles (2014-2020). Ayaka Suzuki was one of the first Japanese female bodyboarders to make it to the world stage. Despite all the challenges Suzuki faced to compete at a world-class level, the long path to glory culminated with an unprecedented and historic world title in 2018. Amaury Lavernhe is one of the most well-rounded professional bodyboarders in competitive history. He won two world titles (2010 and 2014) and also runs the Amaury Academy around the world. Claudia Ferrari was one of the first women to own and ride a bodyboard in Brazil. She won the GOB World Tour in 1995, the Women's Pipeline Pro in 2007, and the USBA Tour in 2008. The waves ridden in this compilation were shot in Hawaii, Mexico, Portugal, Texas, the Canary Islands, and several other locations. There's also an extra wave pool section by drop-knee pioneer Jay Reale. Full Story: https://www.surfertoday.com/bodyboard...
