To cap it off, Mikey took to Instagram again today to show how he keeps his mullet in check. That said: we doubt it’s a coincidence there were two in quick succession straight after Wright’s heroic moment. Image: is not the first time a grom has got their Mikey Wright on, with Instagram account getting the mullet (and attributing it to Mikey) a year and a half ago. Image: above man was not alone, with North Shore Surf Clinic posting a video too of what appears to be one of their students getting the mullet makeover.

Since the rescue video has been published, two videos have emerged showing individuals inspired to rock mullets, both reposted by Wright on his Instagram story on Sunday the 4th. “I knew that mullet had some magic powers,” professional surfer and artist Otis Carey wrote. Jessi Miley-Dyer, a former CT surfer, said, “Who needs a cape when you have a mullet.” Mick Fanning, former world champion surfer and Australian surfing legend, wrote: “Wow that could of ended really bad!! Well done.” Wright posted the incident to Instagram with the caption: “Hold my beer.” The story went viral. He supported her while they were pounded by waves, and helped bring her successfully to the shore, where the two were met by help from onlookers – including his sister (and two time women’s world champion surfer) Tyler Wright. Although other beachgoers tried to assist too, the current proved too strong.įighting the surging waves and treacherous conditions, Wright dove in, swam out and picked her up. Seeing the woman pinballing her way through hard volcanic mounds, Wright realised she needed help.

But After December’s Pipeline Masters, he found himself centre stage for another reason.

For this reason, the current 17 ranked men’s surfer in the world (after the first event of the year), is in Hawaii – competing.
