“I am going back to being a freesurfer, it’s what I was meant to do.” - Bruce Irons
Bruce Irons is going back to the stream he came from and it’s about time. After four and a half years of tough losses, Bruce is set to go back to his roots. This is good news for everyone as it really gives Bruce a chance to be creative again and shine in the light that he needs to be in.
Bruce is now 28 years old and admits that he has some regrets about surfing in the tour. Of course there were a few good times along the way like when he finished second to his brother Andy Irons, in the 2004 Quik Pro in Hossegor but it seemed like the bad times outweighed the good in this situation.
Irons will be finishing up the tour this year as he is loyal to his commitments but after that, it’s over and he will be “free” again once more. Best of luck to you Bruce and we can’t wait to see your progression in free surfing over the next few years!

As we all know, local boy Jamie O’Brien, took the 2008 Da Hui Backdoor Shootout back in January and took home a cool $50,000. He was followed by Bruce Irons who nabbed $25k and Ola Eleogram who brought home $15 g’s. DC Shoes just released the following footy from the contest. As you can see from the waves, this contest proved to have some of the best conditions at Pipeline in recent memory.
