Pablo Solano thought he had discovered the art of bodysurfing one day when he accidentally caught a breaking wave while swimming in the ocean.
After sliding down the green face of the wave with nothing more than his body, Pablo was hooked.
He immediately went home and did some research, discovering that other bodysurfers did, in fact, exist. Pablo had never encountered another bodysurfer at his home break in Costa Rica.
Former ocean lifeguards, Hannah Walsh and Spencer Dunlap, were shocked to discover the lack of bodysurfers when they first arrived in Costa Rica.
However, they eventually heard of Pablo through a mutual friend and decided to meet up for a bodysurf.
This video shares the footage from their first session together, riding waves in the purest way possible—sin tabla.
