Watch one surfer pull into 7 barrels on ONE wave!
15th of February, the morning that some will remember as one of 'those days' at the Superbank. Blue skies, 6ft peelers running down the beach, each capable of 45+ seconds rides; oh, and it's barreling out of it's mind. Mitch Parkinson was out there, along with a handful of other professional surfers performing for the crowd of photographers on the beach.
First, we'll answer the question you're probably asking right now, no, we don't mean Joel Parkinson. This was his little grommie cousin, Mitch! With surfing in his blood, and some whopper sized shoes to fill, one popular surfing mag once headlined that Mitch is a 'Tube Pig', thanks to his love for travelling the world in search of the best barrels.
To find this one right on his doorstep must have been a slap in the face, because it looks like one that he'll never forget!
Watch as Mitch Parkinson takes off and tucks into not one, but 7 different barrels as he surfs a 45 second Superbank masterpiece on the Gold Coast…
