Mason Ho Gets Harry Bryant On New Mayhems, Takes Him to the Infamous Rock Garden

As discussed in the latest print edition of SURFER Magazine (on newsstands now), Harry Bryant has no problem jumping on any type/shape/length of equipment to enjoy time in the water. In the “Dance of the Mo’o” the 28-year-old Australian said that he’ll even pack a bodyboard on some trips in case there’s a wedge that’s too steep or shallow to knife.

Be it stretched-out step-ups, bat tails from Stretch, or modern shortboards, Harry’s got an open-minded but high-threshold quiver. He’s very analytical with his boards, and he won’t let just anything pass under that grizzled visage.

“My whole aspiration with surfing, and what really makes me stoked being a surfer, is having the right board for any sort of day,” Harry said. “And that basically means that I can play any day on absolutely anything.”

Here, we are treated to Harry sampling two fresh Mayhems with his good mate and …Lost Surfboards poster child Mason Ho. One is the Pisces, a fun fishy thing that Mason rides as a 2+1 while Harry uses four fins at a playful and mushy peak. Then Michael Ho paddles out and gets combos on his Mod Quad, another …Lost model.

Then the friends take out a Driver 3.0 apiece. This is Matt Biolos’ cut-and-dry thruster, three fins or bust. But they attack a wave that we’ve seen so often from Mason, yet still makes us wonder how it’s even surfable — the offensively shallow rock garden. The left looks doable, even downright fun, but the right is a ticket to the local ding repair specialist. Or maybe to a board rack. Luckily for Mason and Harry, they’ve got options.
