Australian surfer Wade Goodall is featured in a YouTube video showing that at nearly 38 years old and having suffered several major leg injuries, he’s still a phenomenal talent.
But what also stands out in the footage – and what’s being shared this week via social media – is a portion that begins at the 3-minute mark, when a dolphin positions itself directly below Woodall and rides the left-breaking wave in unison with Goodall.

Viewers will note that Goodall spots the dolphin almost immediately after standing up and a wonderful symmetry occurs during their brief ride.
Surfline followers obviously enjoyed the clip and the top comment was well received: “We are so damn lucky this is our chosen culture.”
