No, we’re not talking some new bigged-up freaky phenom whiz kid that’s about to re-define the sport of surfing. That’s ‘player’ as in ‘video player’. Our action sports sister site Mpora, who does a great job of hosting much of the video content we feature on Surf Europe, has just launched a much-improved video player for everyone to drool over. And we’re not just talking about faster streaming times… There’s a couple cool new features to enhance your high-speed, action-intense shred visioning like the ‘Slow Mo’, ‘3-second Rewind’, and ‘Screen Shot’ options. And just look at the suave, sleek presentation. We’re really talking the whole package here.

However, that said, the new player does remain a beta-version so if you do run into any problems and want to shout about it then make sure you let them know (just click on the links beneath the player to leave feedback). Failing that you can always just switch back to the old one.
