Irish Times - Part 1

IRISH TIMES Thank God for Ireland. The more I go back… the more I respect it. It’s no Hawaii.It’s no Tahiti. There’s no palm trees. No warm water. No easy angles. It’s cold. Raw. Unforgiving. If you want the best shots here — you earn them. Nothing comes easy. The Atlantic makes sure of that. This winter I’ve made three trips already. Because quite simply… Nazaré wasn’t the place to be. Before Christmas, Mullaghmore delivered three major swells — including what I’d call the swell of the season. BOMB SWELL.(If you haven’t seen it — here it is.)    • BOMB SWELL - Mullaghmore swell event Dec 2025   Then February hit. The Atlantic lit up. Massive west swells marching straight into the Clare coast. What you want here is the right direction swell with direct offshore winds — and when that lines up, this crazy right-hander called Aileen’s wakes up. Aileen’s is an exposed reef slab sitting beneath the Burren and the Cliffs of Moher Geopark — one of the wildest backdrops in Europe. It’s heavy. It’s unpredictable. And it’s not built for comfort. Filming this place? There are no easy options. Swimming in 9–10 degree water? Not happening.Ski? Not available. So that leaves land. Halfway down the cliff gives you the safe, straight-on angle — but it looks like a long drone shot. Too predictable and the waves don't look so big. So there’s only one real choice. an 70 minute crawl down the cliff. Navigate the boulder beach.Avoid falling rocks.Find the angle. That’s Ireland. And this swell brought out some of the best in the business. Slab Tour General Nathan Florence.Russell Bierke.Tom Lowe.Willem Banks.And up and coming 18-year-old Sydney charger Lex O’Connor. On the bodyboard front: Slab manic Shane Ackerman , and Irish locals Seamus “Shambles” McGoldrick, Tom Gillespie and Jack Johns. This is 14 minutes plus — Part 1 of 2 — from two of the biggest and best days Aileen’s has seen in a long time. No gimmicks.No safety nets.Just cold water, heavy slabs, and commitment. This is IRISH TIMES. Enjoy.
