Pro opens up about surfing with autism in film

"Clay Marzo rides the big waves off Maui like no other surfer, carving
turns like a skateboarder on a liquid vert ramp or a snowboarder in a
moving turquoise halfpipe.

Marzo glides through the barrel, a transparent tube of water, and dips
his mop of golden hair into the wave's cascading wall, then shakes
hundreds of shiny droplets into the air in the film Just Add Water. His
barks of joy can be heard through the roar.


Marzo, 20, may be the world's most creative surfer. He also has Asperger's Syndrome, a form of high-functioning autism."
