If you follow What Youth to any degree, you would know that we’ve been backing Nic Von Rupp since we proclaimed him as “surfing’s hardest working man,” a few years back.

Well, before that, but you know what we mean.

Be it cold water slabs in Ireland, Ments perfection, massive Nazaré teepees, or just down at the local with the boys, Nic was on it in 2021.

Given the whole COVID deal, that’s impressive in its own right.

Literally, and as if on schedule, Nic and his team churned out quality content on almost a weekly basis, none of which was b-roll or throwaways by any means.

That too, is impressive.

As a cherry on top, Nic and his team put together a little look back at 2021 and some of those epic moments.

Enjoy.
