By no surprise, Mick Fanning has already emerged as a clear standout from what has already been a historic run of swell, thanks to Tropical Cyclone Winston. Crazy thing is, there is more swell on the horizon. Alongside his longtime friend and fellow Cooly Kid, Joel Parkinson, Mick managed to avoid the scorching sun and spend the majority of this clip in the shade. Cross your fingers and hope Snapper looks like this for the 2016 Quiksilver Pro.
