With Ireland having some of the best waves for surfing around the world, it's only natural that we're going to produce some top class surfers.

Pardon the entirely intentional pun, but one young surfer from Sligo, Gearoid McDaid, has been making waves on the surfing scene and a recent video highlighting his talents illustrates just why.

Gearoid, who's only 18, can be seen doing his thing earlier this summer in a brilliantly-edited video shot on a Go Pro Hero 4 Black by Ian Mitchinson that includes footage from Strandhill, Bundoran and Clare.

Remember the name folks.
