Laird Hamilton: “Sleep is important!”

Surf's most prolific pitchman adds another company to his portfolio!

Laird Hamilton is the nearest thing our surf world has to Santa Claus. The ageless man surfs the earth™ (on a golfboard) while taking food to the extreme™ (with Laird SuperFood) while wearing clothing with a contemporary and multi-functional edge™ (in Laird apparel). And today, near Christmas, he has partnered with another company that promises to maximize your sleep. Let’s hear from him:

Sleep is a foundation to my training because it’s vital for muscle regeneration, mental recovery, and more importantly, long term health,” Hamilton said in a statement. “I’m able to chase the upper limits of my abilities by committing to a balance of exercise, diet and rest. As a brand ambassador for SleepScore Labs, I want to highlight the massive benefits of adequate rest and sleep, and the empowerment SleepScore technology gives me to maximize success.

Do you think Laird really speaks like this? “…the empowerment SleepScore technology gives me to maximize success” etc?

More importantly do you think sleep is important or a waste of time?

I’m of the mind that it is mostly a waste of time. If you want to buy the latest Laird craze though you can click here. The SleepScore technology promises…

Through patented technology from Resmed, the parent company of SleepScore that makes hardware for sleep apnea, SleepScore tracks a user’s sleep patterns with biosensing technology.

Its hardware, which is about the size of a tissue box, can monitor respiration and body movement without touching the user from a few feet away. It can track how long it took them to fall asleep and how much time they spent in each sleep cycle.

Taking into account a person’s surrounding environment by measuring factors such as room temperature, light and noise level, it can provide suggestions on how to improve sleep quality by doing things such as turning down the temperature in the room or using earplugs to cut out excess noise.

That sounds fucking stupid.

Laird’s desire for attention and sucess come from deep seeded abandonment issues. Same for JJF, Gabby and Kelly. Inferiority complexes drive the desire for greatness.

You ain’t even surf no more Laird. Your busy sleepin while you should be dawn patrollin’ you old pussy. You ain’t pushed any upper limits of abilities in decades.

Carlos Vilar

I think we should name him Lord Hamilton from now on

Wayne Lunch

Depactus yo. I have smoked a joint with Egan. Cool guy when it comes to getting high.

Tomas' silky smooth arms

Nice guy in the water too from my experience. Unlike a lot of pro cunts.

To be fair, I snore like a sumbitch, and no matter how long I sleep I feel like shit the next day. I’m probably exactly his target audience.

I can’t remember the last time I woke up feeling ready for the day. Fuckin sucks.

?uzzled

Yes, we are in the sleep apnea club. Having a device to tell you how poor your sleep is will not help the matter.

channelbottom

Nope. I’d rather a proper medic told me and then actually cured me.

Tired old guy

He’s running out of options and appealing to a shrinking demographic… no 60 year old with a real job can spend the hours per day working out to pretend he’s lairds doppelgänger… and fewer and fewer people outside Malibu know about, or could give two shits about the self proclaimed “waterman”. just go away

HotRightNow

The world is ready. Lairdliving & Lairdpparel.

Laird is a straight up hustler nowadays. Good lord.

?uzzled

Good Laird.

Carlos Vilar

Oh my Laird

Otto

I pictured Laird as more a SISSY. Sleep In Stand Straight Yoga sleeper. Bring his mind/body/SUC/K singularity skills and foil that bed’s prone dreams.

?uzzled

The link was to a site that sells ketamine and mdma.

Chas Smith

I’m so happy someone clicked on it.

Dogsnuts

Weed maps would have been more apt.

Sleeping is a great way to skip the pain of life. .

Hi mum we are having fun with nana and pa and today we caught a rare Hawaiian Flathead off the breakwall . Hope you like the photo .

James Bickerton

Where’d the photo go of Laird impersonating a caught fish ?

Steven Rees

I’m a big fan. As seen on the cover of last month’s Outside, he had his baby dropped from a helicopter and likely caught it. Terrific coordination, really. He doesn’t even look nervous.

Drop kick me Jesus, through the goalposts of life!

Steven Rees

even better.

Neal Kearney

It’s a new Laird-streme core workout, “Baby burps”. You know you’re finished when the baby is face down in the sand and you can’t bend your neck

Krill

Merry Christmas you degenerates!

Tomas' silky smooth arms

Help

longtom

how?

Tomas' silky smooth arms

Everything is ok now. My horse was sick and i desperately needed some k to help it. Chas helped with his link. God bless him.

Lemon Next to the Pie

Thanks. You too. Mine was pretty good as we did all the present stuff yesterday in further bastardisation of Viking tradition, so got out for the early today. Swell had dropped, but got to share with pod of bikini chicks on mals. Had worse.

shootsthen

Having trouble sleeping? Just wake your ass up earlier and you’ll sleep better, for sure.
