Breaking: Surf world rallies around Dane Reynolds after online sleuths discover former champ on prosthetic leg

Shock wave sent through surf communities worldwide.

The Bakersfield surfer Dane Reynolds, known for his intuitive and explosive style of surfing and who was rated fourth in the world thirteen years ago and still worth all the pro surfers combined, has sent a shockwave through the surf world after being filmed on a prosthesis.

The almost-forty-year-old Dane Reynolds, a father of three and a millionaire a few times over, was filmed cleaning the floor of his Carpinteria compound with a bagless vacuum cleaner, the vision posted on his wife Courtney’s wildly popular account @napkinapocalypse.

Courtney posted the film in a carousel along with the caption, Dane broke his foot.

It’s the latest in a long-line of mishaps for the pro surfer turned surf shop vendor.

Three years ago Dane Reynolds‘ bucolic idyll was shattered by the noisy arrival of Kourtney Kardashian and her husband Travis Barker when they splurged $16.5 million buying Conan Hayes’ redundant beach house.

Shortly after, Reynolds walked through a glass door in Mexico, shattering the glass and puncturing his forehead.

One year ago, was forced to shutter his iconic Ventura surf shop Chapter 11 shortly before it was bulldozed by developers.

The green shack was called Chapter 11 and lived at 365 East Santa Clara Street in Ventura. It was a place where its famous owner would greet customers and offer screen-printed t-shirts, still warm from the freshly applied inks.

Isn’t there enough disinformation in the world without BeachGrit adding to it?

Happy Camper

Garbageman

Happy Camper

Happy Camper

Dane….Domesticated!

Sorry Chas.

Brutus

lovely to see you believe Instagram, and that it’s a real world !

Happy Camper

you lost me on that one.
have no idea what you’re trying to say….but I upvoted you anyway.

Brutus

haha I reckon if you see something on IG…it’s someones best 5 secs of the day….IG is not reality, we all tal it up or spread bullshit!!!!

Happy Camper

ohhhh. okay.
I only have business accounts on insta and face book, and our social media manager maintains those.
My wife sometimes shows me some *funny stuff on insta and Tik Tok.
But other than checking the analytics or approving an integrated marketing campaign, I don’t really look at social media…..unless someone tells me I have to look at something.

*the dog videos are super fun

Brutus

as he is under the Tate mantra…..rape and bash that bitch, how dare she belittle a man !

Happy Camper

dunno, I just thought it was funny relative to Chas’ recent article about Cole.
Bet Dane makes one heck of a sandwich, though.

ValiantScorn

Did he have another “emergency”, and have to leave real quick….again?

Derek Hynd's Missing Fins

Other online sleuths found this. Good thing Dane is white, so he’s safe of being cancelled:

Once again an example of embedded ideologues in the military acting out their “guerilla war” hoping to label an executive order designed to keep the federal government from engaging in racial tribalism and grievance-mongering as racist.

This is just more of the same shit members of the USAF tried with “look what the end to DEI did to the Tuskegee Airmen”.

Hegseth will figure out who it is, and that’ll be the end of that person’s military career.

Brutus

good to see medal of honor means nothing , cut back Veteran Affairs , sack Military personal who don’t believe in a new Military based on the wants and needs of a convicted felon……I mean what could go wrong……stock markets and the brand of the USA becoming a pariah nation!

Otto

You’re better than this Maurice.

"Helmets... Period."

Lmao who gives a shit?

He’s got ringworm a healthy appetite and suurfs real good. That’s all I can tell you

Dumb Florida Redneck

Barnycle

Only an idiocracy would sail the internet’s high seas without two ad-blockers installed.

Truth

Stick man
