Italo Ferreira Tests The 2022 Winning Board | Stab in the Dark

[@concretely]

The best part of this series is that you get to watch pros have to make do with average waves, with unknown equipment, and they still find ways to make magic.

[@bdlosson]

Barney. Refers to himself by name but in the 3rd person. Love his surfing but egomaniac

[@ControversialJay]

nope. he's confident, and justifiably so.

such a humble guy..........lol

[@danielcurvello3173]

Who is perfect off camera? It's not about ego, it's pride to como out of nowhere and rwach dreams not only for him but also for his familiy, friends and the kids of Baia Formosa. Who don't knows the lack of resources in many areas of Brazil must think twice before jugde. Timmy allowed Tico and Teco development as pro shapers. Tico and Teco made Italo's boards since he was a kid shaping 4'11" grom. The IF15 model is the result of mamy years developing this 4'11". Is it too hard and painful to watch a gift happy person that reached all his dreams and now have all the resources and discipline to go beyond? Everybody has highs and lows. Just look at the mirror before judging.

[@erivanlucas5711]

Perfect! 👏👏👏👏

[@jelte9297]

Yeah... except i don't see anyone from Indo, African countries or the rest of Latin America talk like that? they seem way more humble. I don't agree with your argument. I think it's more a Brazilian style instead of it having to do with coming from poor origins etc?

[@Marcellhngb]

@@jelte9297 maybe its or style too, but i dont know any african or latin american apart from the brasilians who are world champions and/or olympics gold medalists

[@sergioalvarez376]

He is using different set of fins on each board...he should use the same to compare only boards, as fins play a key role. Is Italo selecting the fins or are selected by the shapers?

[@Piterpiter1]

[@dennetoyanguren9038]

I lIke his Confidence. Its not typical in Surfing, but actually refreshing. Not everything in Surf culture needs to be chill bro - NBA NFL FiFA F1 is full of this type of Charisma -

[@j.mach1133]

All of us “normal” surfers go out there to get fun waves, try to push it and improve, but our livelihoods are not at stake. Trying to be the best in the world if difficult to comprehend. Very very few can achieve that by just going out and doing their thing (Reynolds). To actually reach that mountaintop is totally different. I’m here for the ripping, and Italo is providing

[@aidanbotha6556]

[@mikeuptegrove]

I’m almost embarrassed for Italo for his opening remarks here. He thinks he’s Tupac reincarnated I guess. Humility isn’t anything he ever learned about I suppose, and that far surpassed anything defined as a healthy dose of self-confidence. I guess I finally can make sense of all the anti-Brazos comments that flood the WSL livestream chats.

[@thomasstern6814]

He was asked a question that encoured this response, thats how interviews work. Also, you need this sort of self belief to be a world champion. You need to believe you are the best

[@marckindl1071]

There are many things lost in translation too. Portuguese, and the way its used, is not English.

[@ivomendonca2468]

This guy came from a poor family in a poor fisherman city in Brazil. He knows a lot about life. Including not put head down when he don't need. The first battle to win is in your mind.

[@RemoverBacterias]

he only said that his surfing style is doing the unexpected, whenever he has a chance he's gonna take it and thats his strength. what's so bad about that?

[@iraomar1]

Tupac is a legend but he was also very sensitive and emotional. Nothing wrong with that.

[@thegibbonisreal]

'won't know if I'm just gonna do some railwork' hahahahahaha, funny guy.........he'll pump down the line and huck a bs full rote to flat before claiming 999 times out of 1000. In one heat.

[@paulsmith5167]

Jesus that is painful to watch, he is becoming the most hated surfer in the world. His quote saying MAKE ME HAPPY , you could imagine what he is like when not on camera, being bossy and given orders and how about his disrespect to Timmy Patterson and given all the credit to Tico and Tica at the Brazilian factory , certainly wouldn’t buy his board after watching this. I instantly had to watch the Dane Reynolds stab in the dark, to redeem my faith in surfing. Jordy was right, you wouldn’t give him a cent.

Which board goes good down the line to do a air 360. Horrible style, and typical brazzo attitude

[@cwr8618]

typical. and it's impressive the amount of public lice defending shit attitudes. happens in all sports - someone can do ONE THING really well, so it's cool if they're dbags. As much as I love to surf, it's just a dude riding a board in the ocean. Newsflash - he's not developing new clean water technology or curing cancer. He's standing on a board in the ocean...

[@sean7841]

WOW so humble, he will call it passion, i call it arrogance, calm down bru youre not a surfing legend by any means.

[@vitordaher8941]

No, he is not. He is just a world champion and the 1st surfer Olympic gold medalist. But you are better Sean, hands down lol what an idiot talking about being humble or arrogant
