Thx for complementing our beautiful country ❤️🇿🇦
Glad to be apart of the first adventures boys!! Hope we can get a couple more sessions soon... Stoked to have you here my bru!
Yesss plenty more missions ahead bru! 😏💃🏼❤️
@@itskoasmith casually mentioning that every creature wants to kill you is simply... ignorance. I'm only familiar with one creature that match this definition and that is... a human.
Please help share wisdom among us and not ignorance. Bless and love.
hopefully on better conditions too 🤞

I’m liking Iain’s thumbnail on your video
Each time I surf this spot I tell myself that it must be one of the most beautiful places in the world. Nice to hear that someone who lives in Hawaii feels the same...
100%
Good vibe to carry should you later get attacked by a shark.
Bru you’re making us HOMESICK 😭🇿🇦❤️
So much homesick, so much bru'ing going on 😁🇿🇦
@@DeanPaarman you know BRU
Why? Because Africa ❤
Lmao same
Sorry boet
Sick boys! My little brother is a surf instructor in Cape Town, SA.. I live on Hawaii Island 🌴 where we grew up.. I love being able to see some local breaks.. makes me feel more connected to my little bro.. keep the stoke on! Aloha 🤙🏼🤙🏼
Shark invested waters...you mean where we live. - sharks.
KOA YOU LEGEND!!! thanks for coming to visit us!
This video was awesome!! Can’t wait for the rest of the South Africa episodes. Make the vids longer!🙌🏻
Love it man! Keep the editing up Michael & Nick!
So psyched on your vlog!! Your content and edits/filming are sick. Loving your pure stoke on all you do. Plus your constant message about protecting our beautiful Honua!! Keep sending it Boyz. 🤙
Thank you 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
The part with the dolfins!! So great - awesome video as always!
Love your videos. The editing is top notch. I really like how you keep it real and are more in it for the soul than the money. Thanks for not putting in 500 commercials like some of your friends. Keep doing your thing. You are on another level. It's not about money. It's experiencing life and finding those moments of joy that create priceless memories. We enjoy riding along on your journey.
Sickk🔥 really enjoyed every moment of this, missed you on that session at caves by a few minutes😔
Sick edit of one my favorite places. Takes time to master. Many many good times back in the 90's there (and once +/-4m white..) Thanks for sharing!
Bro when you said Doodles I was all in boet, Millies for life.
So cool seeing you surfing spots and driving roads that are so close to me! I hope you surf Kommetjie soon and check out the sunset there!
Just amazing. I’m beyond stoked for you guys. I’ll be following the journey. 🤙🏼
So sick that you went out with Iain Campbell
Koa, vlogs like yours are why we should be able to give 2 👍! Awesome as always!
Thank you!! Every Tuesday baby 😏
My parents lived near Gordons Bay for 20 years and I got to visit that spot a few times. Around the corner is a little town called Betty's Bay. Great waves if the wind is offshore.
Loving the content, keep it up!❤
So stoked you scored at my home! Still the most magical place on Earth! That vision is next level! Right foot forward:)
Ahh Koelbaai! The most beautiful beach ever. Baie liefde to you guys! ❤️
Awesome, welcome to Kaapstad! Enjoy 🌊🏄🏼
Heyyy!! That's my home country!!! Hope you guys experience a good South African braai while you're out there! Hahaha
Lekker braai vleeise ne
Me to
Oh, the irony of drinking Corona while trying not to catch...Corona. And dude, I bet the top of that "mountain" at 0:53 is one of those trippy ancient man-made structures. Excellent cinematography!
yiiieewww! Stoked you're back this side of the world bru!
Music fits the clips like nothing i’ve seen before
Always fearless editing. So much life!
1:48 🤣🤣 that was a good attempt mybru..
Missing my old home so much after watching this.... Awesome guy's....
I live in cape town but I can’t seem to locate the second spot where you surfed. Where is that?
the board is like an extension of his body its insane. I dont know how his feet stay on it the way he moves. Sorry but YT just randomly introduced me to surf videos, now im hooked.
Wow, you guys are very brave. Always wanted to learn to surf. Watching you guys is bliss. Thanks for sharing your adventure time with the world.
Surfing cold water your just getting you're ice bath at same time bro 🤙
Such a rad edit, sweet footage boys
1st trip to Capetown 1983. Thank you Davy Stolk. Alot has changed. Waves and sharks remain the same. Baboons at the Cray fish fty?
Davy Stolk…..that’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time…..😁👍. Miss the Cape…..stuck in Los Angeles……..
Me seeing the amazing waves gotta keep myself over I always watch amazed riding the heavy waves with heavy music like Delta Parole or with relaxing music videos in background.
Absolutely love this place and can do relate to it providing a great place for growth! It sure holds a special place in my heart to! Thanks for taking us with!
What kind of drone are you using in this video?
Hectic. When the keeness for fun in the water over powers all lol. Good shit bro
Nice intro. Honeymoon shot was a nice touch. I hope that’s a cigar in pop’s hand
I live in Cape Town and it is the BEST!!
Leo I found ur comment
ya it is, but most of cape town is the worst
Subbed and waiting for the 2nd episode 🙌
You guys should hit Ballito for some warmer waters. But the scenery of this spot is unmatched...
Holy shit guys!!! What a video! You guys literately make the best team! The footage is next level, the editing is on point and brings out so much emotions! And of course, Koa is funny as hell and surfs the best 😎 PS when you growing your hare again @Koa? 😜
You making me miss home so much right now! I moved to Lisbon (plenty of good surf around too) but heading into summer and the swells are few and far between.... Tis the season to be on the Cape Peninsula. Hope you score some decent ice barrels "down south".... swell n wind lining up this arvie. Have an epic one bru.
Sick clip and edit guys!! 🤙🏽🤙🏽
Great video thanks for sharing such good footage
Amazing episode, thx ! You should go climb Lion's head and chase the sunrise. life changing experience
Remember to get home sHaFe after a long day out in da sharky waters! 😌🌞
shaafee
That's so crazy i also saw those dolphin's when i was in Sea Point! haha thought they were fish! can't wait to see your next episode in SA !! :)
flippin amazing bro !! so glad you love this place i call home and your passion for SA is amazing please return
Peep the views compared to previous videos , the love and spirit in South Africa is unmatched ❤️
Kaapstad!!!! 😲 There's no place like it 🤩
Ahh , its where I live, excellent vid, brought a tear to my eye.. thanks dudes.
Sick film 👌🏻 Nice to meet you in Jbay Koa. Hope to get another chance to take more pics of you. Enjoy the rest of your stay in SA 👍🏻
awesome, south africa's a beautiful place, reminds me of australia.
What model is the board with the black stripes on the bottom, looks sick.
Sick vlog again!!!!
Finally some new way of filming. Day one fan. Last name first all the way to now. Keep coming with the new cinematics
Yesssss thank you! A lot more to come!
His beanie 😂 so high
EPIC ! Can’t wait for the next episode !
Aloha 🤙🏾
nice video and nice sound tracks too bro. do you have a playlist with those musics? lmao
Sick vid! Love it!! Just one thing to mention... SA laws on flying drones is the most strict laws in the world. They will actually take away your stuff and give you fine and wouldn't even be excused as for being a tourist x
I wanna see you keep making these videos and save you some inconvenience! 😁
Wow! Beautiful, but you all are so much braver than I am. One shark sighting & I'd be paddling in & not go back for the rest of the day.
Best nubian bearded clam I ever had was behind a restaurant dumpster in Johannesburg. 😂😂😂😂
Shark"Whats for lunch" shark2"surf and turf"
Koa you should go check out the South African deep house scene while you're there. Some of the best music and the best vibes you'll find
Great work man
Nice vid....Cool to see footage of my city:)
Yeah legend, it was good to link while you were here. I still think it may have been a shark under us haha
Respect. Thank you for sharing your life with us.
SA has THE most beautiful sunsets e v e r ! Thanks Koa Looks like you are having a blast!
Did you ride both the squash tail and the round tail version of the mini ghost? Or just the squash?
Hit me up when you're here next time, I've got some next level spots to show you guys that nobody wants to talk about. Some are really close to some very well known breaks too...
Where about? Would love to know, hate surfing in crowds

Hit me up on Instagram! Would love to train! @koasmith
@@hospagalief bro why you giving out all the secret spots!?
"swimming in surfer infested waters" -- sharks
I can now say that I burnt Koa Smith😂😂sorry
Welcome 'back' to the land of possibilities, look forward to the rest of your SA adventure. Hit the Kei
Dude lookin like a 2021 vanilla ICE!!!
I didnt want to watch this because im a cape town surfer but here it goes anyway.
I recommend taking a visit to a town called kometje because it has arguably the best big wave spot in South Africa,krons which has perfect barrels, long beach which is basically lowere trestles from wish and it has inner Kom which is a perfect left and works at high tide but it only works in south winds (it doesn’t matter which way south) and east winds
Krons is not a big wave spot???? Krons is a shitty shorebreak that doesn't get bigger than 3 foot 🤣🤣 I know because I live here and have for 15 years
@@keironsmith9605 I want talking about krons I was talking about sunset beach which Ian has been to
@@hugorombouts2533 it isn't sunset Beach if you're talking about the SA version. It's just sunset
@@keironsmith9605 ok
Yoo, the boys are scoring! 👊🤟
So epic dude!!
Stunning visuals.
Cool video!! Lekker my bru!!! Doodles........ That spot your surfing....lots of sharks at that spot......
Home sweet home.. the most beautiful beaches in the world.🇿🇦❤🌏
why didn't you have your own ad at the start of the vid koa, i watched the whole thing on a nother vid earlier!!
Great vid boys! keep it up!
Greetings from the other side of Africa. The north shore. Here we surf too. Spanish City of Melilla. 💪🏼🤙🏻🏄🏼♂️🌊
Sick video !!! Miss SA so much 😢
Ah damn, one of my favourite spots. In the summer there's luminescense in the water (seen at night). (My theory as to why theres so many sharks?)
Camping out in the big cave and paddling out for a sunrise surf.
Nothing like Caves!
Dude! the mando 8 adds were super necessary for 9 min of footage! kept perfect flow to vid!!
The dolphin and shark drone footage was insane
Bru, If you by chance get a pumping South Easter and some solid swell please go check out the Hoek.
Dope Vid
Damn this is pretty cool
Ahh my home 💚 I was born in S.A , now in TX ☀️
Wow!😍😱
What an amazing view and place. Keep safe guys and enjoy. God bless 💖💕
Nice one Koa 🔥👊💪
Bulletproof coffee lol
