Yfke Sturm is headed home after horrible motorized surfboard accident.
The Victoria’s Secret model Yfke Sturm who was sent racing into a coma, due to electric surfboard incident, with a fractured skull and many broken vertebrae is back!
“E crociera intorno al logo!” Rome’s La Repubblica shouts.
I know because I am in Rome and what a city! Literally eternal.
But back to Ms. Sturm, it is very good news and Laird Hamilton should be pleased. He, of course, wrought this mess upon us what with his infernal fiddling. Hydrofoils one day, Golfborts the next. Murderous motorized surfboards somewhere in between.
When will it end? Thankfully not with Ms. Sturm.
“Che un succulent bella ragazza!” Rome’s La Repubblica gushes.
Being in Rome makes me think about the permanence of surf on this world and makes me realize how fleeting we are. Like Native Americans.
Our collective addition to mankind’s cultural wealth will disappear as quickly as we do. Is that a bummer?
Should we build a giant marble monument in front of Pipeline? Hmmmm. Whatever, I suppose, at least we (Laird) didn’t kill a gorgeous model.
“Succhia uno grasso!” Rome’s La Repubblica sneers.
that is one fucked up name.
