Meet Kelly Slater’s Secret Weapon | Wim Hof redefines what the body is capable of by using breath control

Surfers are always looking for that extra edge either mentally or for some more breathing time when submerged underwater. It’s good for such things as keeping cool under pressure as well as not dying.

“Iceman” Wim Hof is an experimental madman that’s done all kinds of Guinness Record setting feats that should not be humanly possible, like climbing Mount Everest in boardshorts and running a desert marathon without drinking water. Now he is teaching his secrets to others that want to push their limits, which sounds like it has all the makings of a cult, but once watching the videos seems scary real.

Imagine paddling out on a crowded mid-January Mavericks session in boardies and suffering a triple wave hold-down and not feeling any ill effects. Would be nice.
