Heath Joske is know in the surf community as what’s called an “underground charger” – he’s surfing for himself, no longer competing in tournaments. Not for a lack of talent – as Heath still holds the unofficial title of “one of the best waves ever witnessed” by soul arching his way into an unforgettable ride at Jeffrey’s Bay back in 2012, as a wild card. Today he’s a still a legendary surfer, but you’re not likely to find his name in the lineup of most tours. These days Heath spends his time with his family, working on his land, involved in environmental activism, and ultimately living a good, simple life. Interestingly, when he decided to quit competing and prioritize family and sustainable farming, he ended up with new, different sponsors who share his values. If that’s not legendary, then we don’t know what is.
