Lovely Australian surfer Harry Bryant explains his good-natured choke of Waco pool security guard.
Two days ago, at the conclusion of the very good Stab High aerial event, a clip surfaced of a security guard being hosited away from Chippa Wilson by Harry Bryant who was subsequently taken away by a third choker.
“This is fucking bullshit,” Chippa says to the security guard.
“We’re here for the love,” says Jay Davies, at which point Harry carts off the surprised security guard.
Watch!

Harry Bryant, if you didn’t know, is a twenty-one-year-old Australian with a bushy hairdo and albino moustache that twinkle like glitter on a burlesque dancer’s corset. Haz was in New Jersey showing a rough cut of his film Orb when BeachGrit called to discuss the event.
“All I remember was seeing Chip getting head-locked by that security guard. He (Chippa) was sitting down talking to someone, there was some debacle, and then Chippa was in a headlock. My instant reaction was to put him in one and then, before I knew it, I was in one. It was a trilogy of headlocks. No one was hot-headed or wanted to fight. It was all in good spirits. It was hilarious. I think a lot of the American folks were shocked at the Australian way of life. We were all having so much fun, everyone was one the beers all day, and the Americans were a bit eye-opened by that. Me and Jay and all those boys were having a slap contest, slapping each other in the face, stuff that you do when you’re an Australian. You’re not fighting your mates. It was blown out of proportion. People thought I was going to jail. I had a smile on my face the whole time.”
The aftermath?
“Straightaway me and Chippa went and sat him down, apologised and told him we were just having a good time and that we didn’t mean any harm. He said, ‘Yeah, no worries.’ and it was all sweet again.”
I mention that it was more a feisty embrace than, say, a front naked choke
“I didn’t think my arms were big enough to get around a rig like that,” says Haz. “When a bunch of Australians are on the cans all day, something like that is going to happen. No one’s aggressive. No one wants a biff.”
Harry says that America can be a troublesome place for an Australian.
“You can get into a lot more trouble for little things. Even just walking down the street in the evenings and needing to do a piss, you have to go to a public toilet. But there’s no public toilets ’cause all the bums sleep in them. Even drinking a beer in the passenger seat in a car you can get in trouble for. In Australia it’s a way of life. People coming home from work will stop at the bottle-o and buy a long neck for the drive home. It’s so natural in Australia. Of course, you have to respect the rules in other countries but when you’re not aware of the rules, you can run into a lot of trouble.”
This is so stereotypically Australian, I figure he would throw in a reference to stopping at Burger King and confusing it for Hungry Jack’s. Of course, if there is anywhere to best be Australian in the States, it may be Texas.
Might as well rename Beach Grit TMZ.com or Us Weekly and rename Derek Rielly Perez Hilton
Worldstar! Worldstar! Worldstar!
“third choker” used to be my stripper name
You best annunciate that clearly. It almost sounded like you said “turd poker”.
the job description was vague
Ah, The slippery pole in the life of the exotic dancer ?
climb the slippery pole they said. we’ll make you a star they said.
all i have left to show for it is deformed genitalia and disturbing party tricks.
miss all the shots you don’t take, right!?!
The Tide ebbs and flows .
Think Stab would have had better success marketing this event as a party rather than a progression air show. Imagine if they marketed some rule like: For Every air that landed, the surfer had to slam another brew for the boys before they went back out. Sounds like a hell of a time.
He only got away with that due his PowerBalance wrist band.
It’s a great example of the products ability to influence and realign situational chakra yang dimensional Jebus magnesium cornholio waves.
You were the chosen guru to get to the bottom of this !
Alcool always looks bad on screen
I hope BSR gave the security guard a bonus for dealing with that shit.
The Dutch boy would be good to remember that everyone in Texas is armed.
If he was black and in Florida, he could have been shot lawfully.
Who said surfing Australia can’t produce world champion drinkers…oops I mean surfers oops I mean air tour surfers, MC will be proud of these 80’s style legends
Dunno about the aussies on the cans and no one wanting to biff bit….
Choker moves should be called the “Jack Robinson” now there is a Aussie choker.
? Last time I looked he wins anything he enters, and only enters if it’s 8ft+?
Sorry trevor did we push your buttons , the mojority of low level QS events he goes in trying to cobble up points are not 8ft and pumping and he rarely gets past more than two rounds even with his sponsors manipulation of the draw and generally have him miss the opening knock out rounds ..thetruth is thetruth
That kid is so incredibly good at Sunset ,Pipe , Tahiti etc riding the foamball but regularly gets knocked off by a bit of chop or whitewash on the QS in the 1 to 3 ft range .( eg yesterday in Portugal ) I am old enough to remember Peter Mansted / Colbert ,forcing his client Tom Carroll to spend months surfing the shittiest beach breaks in Sydney during his world title campaigns .Wondering if the same strategy 30 years on could get the kid onto the tour in the ADS way of working on your weaknesses ?
The camera man was having a VERY aggressive cum during all that.
I thought perhaps some girl in heels had just stepped on his toes but I checked again and there wasn’t any. definitely cum shouts.
Will the person filming please stop screaming.
How’s it that Stab and Beachgrit writers seem to always add the word ‘lovely’ to whatever they’re writing about. Here the Aussie surfer is seen as ‘lovely’ to the writer. Like all the millennial hipster surf writer folk came to an agreement a few years back to always use the word at least once an article. Take note.
They’re all just homoerotic
And in this instance, Harry really is lovely.
Don’t get all Harvey Weinstein on the kid D
My bristling is that obvious?
Naa, subtle, but you’re the og of that writing style, i think you’ve been slipping it in like that since print days, oui?
Since my early dreams as little boy in long-way-from-beach suburb.
To founding father of my third favourite, Thursday morning surf blog 🙏
How about we find the first use of it in a sentence, on Stab or BeachGrit, and trace it back to the OG?
Along with “breezy”, which is equally contrived
Same person!
Yes I know. Kudos
Ok. Here are a few synonyms to replace lovely :
Enchanting , bewitching ,exquisite,ravishing , winsome , charming , engaging ,alluring , gorgeous,stunning , smashing ……………….
Probably started at What Youth the most hipster magazine of all time
do you know what a headlock is? its not that
Kinda getting into sleeper hold territory.
Would you believe a Heimlich manouevre for a lodged Buffalo wing bone
Possibly a failed come from behind over the shoulder cripple nipple attempt gone horribly wrong from that bowled cut Bryant boy ?
More of a sleepy hold really.
Between this, the Mikey Wright vs brazo incident’, and a geriatric on a surf mat beating women the 2018 WSL Wolf Pak award shall be hotly contested
Surfing needs this.
just for the hair cuts alone!
In the battle of the Surfing Bowl Cuts I personally put Greenough before Bryant !
Love how you can’t drink a beer in a car in Australia but nobody really thinks that’s a rule. My missus thinks you can cause we do it all the time but would flip out if she knew it wasn’t legal.
When there’s traffic lights at drive-through bottle shops who do you blame
How good is Torquay Rd, actually has traffic lights exiting the bottlo.
The poms have buck palace, we have Thirsty Camel
Haha
depends what state, https://www.lifehacker.com….
Well there you go! SA looking more attractive now
Even if it’s parked in the garage with the roller door down ? 1984 thought crime stuff ?
Look all I’m saying is that it would have been worth it to bang that chick for a while.
In the car or in the garage or by the backdoor ?
Whatever as long as the hideous gin was involved 😂
Mate at 21 in Vic I’m still on fucking P plates with a 0 alcohol limit, I don’t say this often but it must be nice to be a Queenslander sometimes. Where’s my longneck?
If you don’t have a father I’m certain there’s 100 on here who’ll advise you not to drink and drive grom. It’s not cool and girls don’t dig it… Stay safe, you got a long way to go
Upvote.
KK, drunk driving is a fucken expensive sport with serious economic ramifications, mate. Take it from one who knows.
I feel like you lads might have taken me a little seriously as far as BG comment sections go. Cheers for the concern Fathers of the Grit, but I’m not that much of a mong. Only a little bit.
No prob, matey. Different world for you guys.
Young astros 18 and so responsible about drink driving I don’t even worry about him. Little cunt raids my beer at home tho – thinks I don’t notice. Dumb fuck.
Aussie pride mutha fuckas. Respect.
