Flynn Visits Uncle Owl

Matuse Family Member, Flynn Novak, decides to visit Uncle Owl to order a short board. Owl Chapman is known for making some of the world’s best big wave boards. Flynn recently rode one of them in smaller Rockies and was able to turn it really well despite it being such a big board(Check it here: http://matuse.com/media/videos/team/flynns-big-yellow-board-2/). So Flynn wondered what Uncle Owl could shape up in a 5’7″ shortboard. Check out Flynn’s visit to Uncle Owl along side Kalani Chapman.

Experiencing the North Shore of Oahu for the first time was all Derek Dunfee needed to spur his quest for bigger waves. He has since committed himself by training hard, maintaining a positive attitude and putting himself on the line whenever the swell models blink brightest.

From navigating huge tubes to experimenting with various cameras, this episode has it all and it’s not one you’ll want to miss.
