“21 in 23,” a short film by Oscar Berry and Dan Scott, documenting Oz’s travels throughout 2023 while delving into his world as a 21-year-old Australian surf prodigy.

In this episode, Nic surfs the legendary wave of Mullaghmore in Ireland, where freezing temperatures and a dangerous shallow reef awaken the year’s most massive waves. Nic and Torrey Meister stood among the select few surfers daring enough to paddle out, conquering some of the largest waves Ireland has ever witnessed. Despite the nearly insurmountable odds, including flight cancellations, delays, and minimal sleep, this session emerged as one of the standout moments of 2023.

History was made by the women at Pipe with monumental showcases led by Caitlin Simmers and runner-up Molly Picklum with jaw-dropping performances and even a perfect 10 for Picklum in the Semifinals. Perfection followed into the men’s Final courtesy of Barron Mamiya to overcome one of Pipeline’s mainstays John John Florence to bring the coveted event title back to its home on Oahu with Hawaiians holding their ground to dominate Finals Day. The adrenaline rush of today’s perfection is still fresh and it doesn’t stop here. The world’s best now head to iconic venue of Sunset for the Hurley Pro Sunset Beach starting today, February 12.

It’s been a journey to finally get out and catch a few at the scariest wave that I’ve ever surfed. It’s amazing to me that I’ve been able to continue to find absolute dreamers of novelty waves along my journey for the dream! We’ve been experiencing some amazing surf here on the island and apparently there’s more on the way! Thanks for everything!! – Ben
