Australia is such a fascinating place. It has epic waves and unmatched wildlife. Plus its the least populated continent on the planet (well minus Antarctica). Check out these videos and let me know which one is your favorite:
Made in Australia - The Wild Card: Jay Davies - Chapter 1
You’ll have a hard time finding a person who would say a bad thing about Jay Davies. He’s an all-around great guy — and have you seen the way he surfs?
You will right here and right now in the first installment in our four-pack of "Made in Australia" edits. We’ll tell you Davies' tale over the course of a few weeks in his natural habitat of Western Australia. The episode is anchored by his wild-card spot in the 2015 Drug Aware Pro in Margaret River, in which he defeated both the 2013 and 2014 world champs. Not a bad run.

You call that a wave? This is a wave... "Made In Australia" is back with another episode that points west. Forget about the wineries and artisans of Margaret River, if you want to meet the true wildmen of West Australian surfing you need to head north, way north, to where desert meets ocean, and life gets a little raw. There's not much more than salt air and red dirt where Ry Craike and Kerby Brown hail from, but they're more than fine with that.
If you like slabs heaving over sharks and sharp reefs, then the boys will like you too. They're like their mates Jay Davies and Dino Adrian, who pay the north-west a visit in this clip to join in the fun. It's Croc Dundee goes surfing, and the boys wouldn't have it any other way.
