Meet The Pioneers Of Surfing In Ireland | Made in Ireland Part 1
Рет қаралды 423,337
5 жыл бұрынIn Chapter One of the Made In Ireland documentary, you'll get to meet the people who put board-riding on the Emerald Isle's map and find out how they're taking it to the next level.
The Made In Ireland documentary (from Irish filmmaker Mikey Corker) brings us the true story of Irish surfing, from its beginnings with Barry Britton to its bright future with big wave chargers like Conor Maguire.
“I kinda miss the old days when we were regarded as beach bums,” says Irish surfing legend Barry Britton in new documentary, Made In Ireland. The 64-year-old is seen sitting in his home in County Donegal, in the Republic of Ireland, recalling the winter in the early 1960s when his mother, who owned a hotel, returned from California with an order for a handful of Malibu surfboards. “We took over the surfboards,” says Britton, “and the guests never got looking at them.”
After we're introduced to the torchbearers of the sport like Britton, Smith, the documentary takes us to the Misfits of Chapter Two, a tight-knit crew that charges Mullaghmore at its meanest. Then, in Chapter Three, we meet surfers from around the world who fell in love with Ireland’s waves and decided to stay. Watch the next 2 parts coming up on Tuesdays on Red Bull KZfaq.

Amazing series, I lived in Ireland for a few years and surfed many times in Bundoran, Easky, Lahinch. It takes balls to surf there, everything is hard, the wetsuit, the bigger board, the strong freezing wind, and heavy water. My huge respect for Irish surfers!

Thank you. Really well done. This is what I miss about the sports "industry" Once, we (i used to work in television) used to spend a lot more time searching and capturing wonderful stories- They were not about flash. This is full of that soul that i miss. Again, thank you thank you thank you.

I from south Devon in the uk and have been to some of the remote spots around Scotland’s Thurso east n I’d imagine Ireland is very similar!very few surfers/bodyboards if any at all,Beautiful coastline and empty waves! Beats warm water lineups full of pros with huge egos any day of the week!

You just have to surf in Ireland. It really can be as beautiful and empty as these vids show. And as cold. Learnt to surf 30+ years ago in Bundoran, Inishowen.

My favourite parts of this video and thoughts: [1] - 0:05 - the Irish summed up in one second. [2] - It is amazing that we need English subtitles for an English speaking country. [3] - 2:52 He is a small man but got big balls. [4] - I have never seen so many untanned surfers. [5] -nearly everytime they go surfing, it is a mission to get ready for a surf (botties, hoodie etc.). I respect that [6] - 6:16 - this guy shreds. [7] - lots of his sponsors left him when he decided to change his life. However, it looks as though red bulled stayed or started?

Great video... just recommended it my brother from Cape Cod... turns out he met Barry close to 20 yrs ago had a couple (probably means several) pints w him.... bought a couple of his drawings which I have seen.... I guess he was a great guy and even offered to find work so my brother could stay and surf... being from The Northeastern US I can understand cold water surfing

Haha most sponsers are so so stupid. In surfing especially, we love riders who do more than just hit the North Shore or Bali for photo shoots and compos the whole time. We always want to see more of surfers like this who have real interesting stories and character. With most alternative sports it is not just about who's winning compos all of the time. Good to see Red Bull gets it.
