Brad Ettinger – A long way from home

 Loose Films caught up with Huntingdon Beach pro surfer Brad Ettinger a while back, whilst Brad was competing in the O’Neill Cold Water Classic in Thurso, Scotland.   Brad talks about a typical day when he’s back home, surfing with Brett Simpson and other local surfers, as well as the areas of his surfing he’s focussing on right now.

Brad is actually quite an inspiration and he probably doesn’t fit the archetypal model of what surfer looks like.   As well as being a devout Christian, he also doesn’t drink and he plays bass guitar in his church band!  He’s also annoyingly good-looking, obviously a great surfer and his wife, Danielle, was featured in the March 2010 Surfing magazine!   Please check out his online bio here from his website.

Brad Ettinger is sponsored by Hurley and HSS, he’s hoping to make the ASP WCT World Tour after recovering from knee injury at Trestles and he’s posted some solid results including the Katin Pro/Am.
