WATCH JACK FREESTONE IN WACkO If You Build It, They Will Come

Video: Tom Carey

It’s kind of like the “Field of Dreams” with Kevin Costner. Except it’s surfing, not baseball and the ghost of Shoeless Joe Jackson isn’t surfing. People have been coming, in droves. Flying in from all corners of the earth to sample some barbecue and man made waves. Build more, in weird places. Let’s see the sport progress. Let’s see inner-city kids ramp out. Who cares. Let’s all have fun.

It’s a damn shame Jack pulled out of the competition at Waco last month to surf a heat in Europe. We wanted to see what he was capable of at the world’s most dependable ramp. Well here you go. Watch three minutes of it right here.
