Come believe the unbelievable!
Do you remember the invisible board section from Spike Jonze’s 2003 skate film Yeah, Right? I so ain’t skate but this, jammed alongside the John Frusciante instrumental Murderers, sure did throw the sport up a dozen rungs.
(The Owen Wilson carpark cameo had me too.)
At the time, I figured, oowee, won’t be long before we get a surf version. And how right I was!
Thirteen years later, Foster Huntington presents… Floater, surfing’s take on invisible boards. It’s more compelling than you might think. Ryan Burch thrills like nothing else, wouldn’t you say?
Or am I easily impressed?
Watch the invisible board section in Yeah, Right here, for background…
Laugh a little at Owen Wright here.
And see how the invisible board thing applies to surf!

Owen Wilson… All actors are Crackers. Yet not bad for a Suicidal, drug addict thespian. Fuck Hollywood.
For all of the damage the the Red Hot Chili Peppers have done to the world, John Frusciante’s solo work is great.
Yeah Right! wins.
Anyone else notice Owen Wilson in Da Hui threads? That cameo of his is pretty classic.
Jack Black has an almost-as-funny cameo in the most recent Girl movie Pretty Sweet.
These guys all have great technique and style which is well highlighted by this gimmick. I’d be interested to see this as compared to someone without, say Matt Banting, for example.
It shows up technique well and foot movements, quite fascinating from that point of view.
Inertia broke the story thinking it was real.
PS I didn’t read a word you fucking wrote so I’m just hoping you didn’t open with that identical line. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
