Mick Fanning a legend for good reason. Sure, the non-surfing world knows him as that guy who fended off a shark attack on live television, but the surfing world knows him as one of the greatest surfers who’s ever lived. It’s hard to stay on top for any length of time in any business, but in surfing, it’s even harder. A constant crop of youth is on your tail, flexible of limb and savvy to the newest trends, but Fanning is just so good at the fundamentals that still, after all these years, he’s stayed at the top of heap. It takes a long time to reach legend status, but Fanning reached it. Mysurf.tv put together a look at his career in the first of their series, Then & Now, and Mick Fanning’s surfing stands the test of time.
