When he was on the World Tour, Michael Lowe’s love of a lefthand barrel was legendary. Whether it was Cloudbreak and Restaurants in Fiji, Teahupo’o in Tahiti, Mundaka in the Basque region of Spain and of course Pipeline in Hawaii, Lowey was always frothing. After travelling with Lowey for a number of years I came to learn that apart from tubes and his wife Amanda, there was only one thing that would get him going in the same way, and that was throwing in a line. During the comps in Fiji he was a fishing demon, regularly pulling in fish like this Spanish mackerel.
