He might come across as a British hardman, but it would seem that Jason Statham is just your average surfer dude.The action star was spotted on a beach in Hawaii, carving up some waves on his surfboard with a smile on his face.

Jason, 46, had left his girlfriend Rosie Huntington-Whiteley for the day so he could line-up along the drift with his pal.

The 46-year old looked buff in his wetsuit, filling out the neoprene with his muscular physique.

And it didn’t look to be doing too bad a job – despite the waves being less than gnarly – as he stayed upright and looked pretty experienced on the board.

Paddling out on the choppy blue ocean, the actor happily chatted to his pal on the flat while they waited for bigger waves to hit.

It’s not clear were Jason’s 26-year-old girlfriend was, however they were spotted just a few days after Christmas taking a stroll along the beach in Malibu alongside their Daschunds Dolly and Peggy.

The couple, who have been dating for three years,  shook off split rumours earlier this year and seem happier than ever and while they have yet to have children – it seems it could be on the cards in the not so distant future.

The actor, who plays a father in his new film Homefront – opposite Kate Bosworth and James Franco – said how much he enjoyed the paternal role.

‘Being a father was a lot of fun actually.’ the actor told the Daily Express. ‘It’s something that isn’t too much of a stretch for me to be honest.

‘I’m naturally a protective person to those close to me. So, who knows?’

In the film he plays a former DEA agent who moves to a quiet town with his family but becomes entangle with a local meth druglord.
