Bren Orton – The dream ride, Part 2
Bren Orton – The dream ride, Part 2
This winter I made my annual pilgrimage to Africa to surf some of the biggest and best waves in the world.
As always I had an awesome time and you can see some of the footage from my trip in the FX promo video below. Unfortunately in my infinite wisdom in deciding to save my money and not buy anti malarial tablets, I unfortunately caught Malaria, collapsed and broke my hand. This weigh laid me a bit with my progression in kayaking as I couldn’t get out on the water or train properly, So with thanks from a friend I cut short my trip to Africa and flew back to the Uk to get fixed up
It was a pretty miserable time, England was covered in snow, I couldn’t paddle due to my hand and selection was fast approaching.
Anyway long story short, my hand healed, selection was postponed, I made the team in the first available position and will be competing at the World championships later this year.
Selection is always a hard time for me as I have to back of on performing combos and focus on strict run plans. Luckily this only fuels my desire to create new moves afterwards, here’s a couple of moves I’ve been working on.
See you on the water,
Bren
