Bezerke

----------------------------------------­­­----------------

O’Neill is proud to present Bezerke, a captivating short film that looks into the life of O’Neill team rider, Russell Bierke.

Russell isn’t your average eighteen-year-old Australian kid. He is leading the way for the next generation of big wave surfers. Tracing his love of heavy waves from childhood to the present day, Bezerke showcases the surfing of a levelheaded young man that sees challenge where most only see terror.

Bezerke features insight from Russell’s father, and also includes scenes from eleven-time world champion Kelly Slater who shared a special session in Southern Australia with Russell when he was fifteen. Bezerke documents Russell’s phenomenal Cape Fear event win and his thoughts on the future of big wave surfing.

I've been watching Russell refine his craft for years. How he can pick the patterns of a spot. Just Amazing. Right on O'Neil for sponsorship. Deserving lad for sure.

Hugely impressive cinematography capturing a completely exceptional surfer - Russel Bierke seems to be able to read a wave like no one else, which combined with his extraordinary skill and fearlessness makes for one of the most compelling surfers alive today. I would love to see him at Nazaré or Teahupoo... all best with your career!

Legendary.
Russell's skill and style surfing backhand, in particular, in such heavy conditions is incredible.
He is likely to have a big future in the surfing world, to be sure.
