THE DRIFTER
In the summer of 2008, iconic surfer and former Pipe Master Rob Machado flew to Indonesia to experience a different kind of surf trip. A journey that would take him way beyond his comfort zone, to the point where he could finally be alone with his thoughts, his desires and the empty perfection of an unnamed Indian Ocean reef. What did he discover? You never stop dreaming.

This looks ridiculous. Rob to truly "go beyond you comfort zone" drop your sponsors, work 8-10 hrs a day to survive. Scrape and save with zero hand outs from your sponsors. Then go on a true journey free of any documentation. Really Rob and Taylor, shut up and surf.
