\"The<\/p>\n

Craig Anderson is one of surfing\u2019s most talented people<\/a>. Not just talented, but interesting. Surfing is full of interesting characters \u2014 despite the best efforts to turn it into a real sport, it is still defined by an undercurrent of anarchy. Surfers like Anderson march to the beat of their own drum. Being a pro surfer doesn\u2019t mean you compete in front of judges for arbitrary numbers\u2026 it simply means you make a living from riding waves.<\/p>\n

But in order to make a living riding waves outside of a contest, you\u2019ve got to have something special. Craig Anderson has it, whatever it is. In a world where surfers\u2019 styles are often an exact copy of someone else\u2019s, he\u2019s got his own distinct way of surfing. Knock-kneed and casual in the face of whatever the wave throws at him, Anderson moves through the water in a similar manner as he moves through life.<\/p>\n

In Aftersun<\/a>, a new film from Nobody Surf and Haydenshapes, Anderson paired up with videographer Tyge Landa for a road trip featuring great waves, great surfing, and two Haydenshapes models, the Darkside and DarkNoiz.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Craig Anderson surfs like only Craig Anderson.
