Happy Birthday to MR Barry Tuddenham! I filmed this video in April,but as Barry has a birthday on the 15 of July, i was waiting to have a little surprise for him! Thanks for watching, send Barry some Birthday wishes!
This was a great little piece; very inspirational. Barry is a man to look up to and he gives all of us surfers hope to one day be ripping at 60. Thank you for this 👍
I think it’s fairly obvious that if you can fight the natural consequences of aging and stay in perfect shape, then you can keep doing whatever activities you want. The hard part is doing it while dealing with injuries, natural muscle wastage, wear and tear etc
"Rage, rage, rage against the dying of the light". Great video. Im a bit older than you and still learning after 40 years. Im not a good surfer but still want to be. I have far less courage now and accident averse, less energy. Surfing is very hard, especially the paddle out. I do yoga which is a massive help. Flexibility and strength plus breath work is key. Your a cool surfer mate and give me inspiration.
I am about to turn 66 & still Surf at Home & Travel Surf heaps. Barry is right on the money. Good advice!! You have to keep at it! Keep Surfing & you will keep Surfing. Cheers Barry!
It's definitely possible. I'm 53, and I swear I still keep getting a little better every year. I don't do any other training; I just surf EVERY day. I've only missed one day in the last 8 months. I got great advice from someone who waas 63 at the time with the body of a 20-year-old. He said, "Just...don't...stop." I've followed that advice over the years and watched everyone grow old around me while I still feel like a grommet. ;-)
The lack of ago is inspiring, I am 60 next month and have been really struggling in the last few years. I will be ramping up the swimming after seeing this! You can boil an egg in the time it takes me to get to my feet.
