Catching Waves and Living the Dream: A Chat with Matheus Herdy and Filipe Toledo
Filipe Toledo: Hey Matheus! Man, it’s always a blast seeing you shred those waves. That rail work of yours, pure magic!
Matheus Herdy: Thanks, Filipe! Coming from a legend like you, that means a lot. I’ve been trying to dial in my style lately. You know how it is, always chasing that perfect wave.
Filipe Toledo: Oh, for sure. Speaking of perfect waves, did you catch any gems at Uluwatu last month?
Matheus Herdy: Uluwatu was insane! The swells were pumping, and the vibe was just electrifying. I felt like I was on this endless quest for the ultimate carve. What about you, been to any dream spots lately?
Filipe Toledo: Yeah, I had a killer session in Trestles recently. It’s always been a special place for me. But I gotta know, what’s your secret to staying so in tune with the waves? You seem to read the ocean like an open book!
Matheus Herdy: Haha, I wish there was a secret! Honestly, it’s all about spending as much time as I can in the water. The ocean becomes a part of you. Plus, those early morning sessions give you this zen-like feel that’s unbeatable.
Filipe Toledo: Totally agree. Hey, a little birdie told me you’ve been experimenting with some surfboard designs. Any truth to that?
Matheus Herdy: Absolutely! I’m really into refining the shapes and finding what makes the board faster and more responsive. That’s part of the fun, right? You should come by the shaping bay sometime, we could brainstorm some epic designs together.
Filipe Toledo: Count me in! Always up for some surfboard geekery. Before we wrap up, any words of wisdom for the upcoming generation of surfers looking up to you?
Matheus Herdy: Stay curious, keep experimenting, and never lose your passion for the ocean. And remember, it’s not just about the waves you ride but the journey you take. Surfing is as much about enjoying the moment as it is about chasing the next big swell.
Filipe Toledo: Well said, Matheus. Catch you on the waves!
Matheus Herdy: For sure, Filipe. See you out there!
