#derekhynd

September 11th... can’t believe it’s been 18 years since we experienced that shockingly tragic day back in 2001, one way or another.... I was here at the time, surfing this wave in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland, when the first plane hit. Together with @kassiasurf @joecurren @hanshagen @curfuffle @farfieldfreefriction @christianbeamish @andrewkidman @hebsurf #skipfrye #derekhynd #frankieoberholzer #mikeymyer.... Initially, we listened to radio reports of what was happening, trying to fathom it, then reality gripped as we tuned in to CNN images and shared the emotional wave crashing over us all 🙏 (at Outer Hebrides) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2RnExtnzgF/?igshid=1rfh7c4ol2wf9

#derekhynd is a rare and eccentric surfer, and one of my all-time favorite characters. Always up before sunlight, ready and determined not to miss the optimal tide or shifting sandbank, and make the most of the day’s conditions. Doesn’t drink and has never tried drugs... actually can’t fathom why anyone would given the pure highs on offer at the beach for free. You’d think losing an eye during competition in the ‘80’s could have slowed him down, but no chance... he’s charging harder at 60 and overcoming real life challenges now with the same stoke as his first surfs provided. Check his speed lines here, on an old board he modified into a @farfieldfreefriction design for me 5 years ago... and don’t miss the somersault whiplash at the end. 🙌🙏 🎥 @robertomoura #canaloff #60goingon6

Grateful for another trip with #DerekHynd. Been a fan of DH since I started surfing, and the experiences I’ve had thanks to him in the surf around the world, as well as his opinionated conversations on land, are pure gold. He’s influenced my surfboard quiver and passion for this lifestyle deeply, so getting to spend countless hours together in empty lineups has been incredible. His surfing at 60 is mind blowing, and this is just a small taste... 🎥 @robertomoura #canaloff @farfieldfreefriction @rosaldoc

In this brave new world where we’re acutely aware of the pressure to commodify, commercialize and homogenize, surfer Derek Hynd @farfieldfreefriction has become a role model of the highest order. Surfing quickly becomes a metaphor for living and Derek will speak to this, to minimalism and about his philosophy of Free Friction.
