Talking about how it was a perfect day for board transfers because it was “kind of half sand, half reef”, O’Brien shared his plans. “We’re gonna go more down the beach, get barreled, come back here. Then we’re gonna do board transfers.” Admitting how he was unsure whether he would hit the sand or hit the reef, O’Brien pointed to the massive waves, hinting that they were perfect for what he had in mind. Later, noticing a pair of abandoned slippers, he wore them, and said, “This is how you do it”, post which he fearlessly hit the waters.

Surfing on one board, O’Brien held another pink board in his hand. Spinning the board and transferring it to his fellow surfer, O’Brien then caught it when it was thrown back towards him. Later, O’Brien gave the same board to his friend Jackson who can be seen paddling onto it. This is not the only time O’Brien left fans astonished at his exceptional surfing abilities. Earlier, O’Brien also shared his interesting encounter, surfing on Waikiki beach with his girlfriend Tina Cohen which left thousands of fans exhilarated.
