Matt capel
Born: 1989
Home: Newton Abbot, Devon
Matt is without doubt the most exciting British surfer to emerge from the junior scene for many years. Headworx’ freshest young rider has sickening amounts of natural talent, women hanging off both arms, and – despite burning the candle at every end – superhuman levels of energy and enthusiasm. Matt pulls in when nobody else wants to, goes vertical every time, and takes the inevitable beatings with wreckless pleasure.
Matt has grown up in the water, learning to surf at the age of nine. In his ten years surfing, Matt has developed a truly unique style that reflects huge natural talent and total commitment. He’s also a bit of a nutter, taking on Teahupoo aged 17! Watching him surf you never know what he’s gonna do next. A flick of the feet and BANG – he’s suddenly fully vertical.
