    Nathan sempre cosi casual, elegante e modesto. When the slab got crowded and slower he just paddled to the boat chilling and watching the guys out there.
    His session was the purest one, early morning, the sun showing up in the middle of the clouds colouring the ocean.
    God bless yourself and your soul.
    Ciao

    Nathan, the level and comfort you surf at melts my brain!!! I love that you were bagging GoPro clips, the look back clip was one of the sickest views of Chopes I've ever seen. Thanks for taking us along!

    @fiddlestickzmuzik Před rokem +2

    You know I used to think I was pretty brave when a young surfer, used to think we charged, takin off on massive close out barrels and wedge like waves at my local east coast break-wall, but I reckon I'd pike out at chopes, just looking over the edge in some of these clips and seeing the bottom drain out, and the reef just roll up under you with a foot or two of water, that's enough to put anyone off. Some of these camera views are next level.

      @godisbollocks Před rokem +3

      @@UKFdubstep2 I've seen plenty. Been following Teahupoo since before it was even famous. I remember magazine articles about bodyboarders Jack Lindholm and Ben Severson visiting Tahiti in like 1993, featuring waves that looked at least as good as Pipe, if not better. I remember thinking: "why isn't that wave famous??" A few years later it was famous. Mostly thanks to the 1997 Gotcha Pro contest, won by Kobe Abberton. Then of course Laird's wave in 2000 sent the break into the stratosphere.
      So yeah, I've been following the evolution of Teahupoo longer than most. I also have the 2011 Code Red DVD, and the book 'Teahupoo: Tahiti's Mythic Wave.'
      I know more about that place than almost any random haole you're likely to encounter in a CZcams comment thread.

    Nate, I think you’re one of those few people out there who put these kinda music at the background, and I’ve heard Kai Lenny, Billy Kemper and a lotta big wave surfers say, “going out there on a big day is like going out to a war, it’s survival, it’s as going into a battle”. Which I think is really true and this music only intensifies it!
