SURFING IN THE GREAT LAKES - RED BULL
Professional big wave surfer Jamie Sterling hopped on a plane with a mission to find and surf decent waves in the great lakes.
At Beaver Bay in Duluth (lake superior), Minnesota amongst freezing cold temperatures, Sterling was able to surf some remarkably big waves despite being in an actual fresh water lake.
Hows the ice on his forhead lol, must be so cold
damn those are some gwd size waves coming through!!
Brrrr! Sooo cold!! Reminds me of my grommie days growing up surfing the beaches of south east Tassie in the middle of winter.. Not quite that extreme but enough to put ya balls in ya mouth and freeze your toes and hands!
Looks similar to a typical westerly bass strait swell but with less snow & ice!
freakin keen!!!
To much RedBull

It gives you wings, not warmth
But not good for your wettie… and you lose more heat in the “processed RedBull” than what you absorbe through the skin. The caffeine and other stimulants probably wouldn’t assist in feeling the cold.
There are substances out there that do help your body overcome the effects of cold but your right eddie “...wings, not warmth”
i surf here in my swimmers…nothing else…....
