    Favorite wave was at 13:55 on your brother's board. Crazy fast drop and then the wave just expoded behind you. I thought the ride was over but you still managed to hang and and make to the shoulder. Epic is the word. 🌴🌴🌴

    Been tuning in to the content more consistently now and I am hooked. Being mic’d up in the water truly gives the viewer the feeling as if they were there. From the air drops, to knifeing the edge and a sendy session with the bois is moments you will cherish forever. Congrats on the partnership as well

  • @scottv6726

    I noticed at the beginning that John had a quad while you had a thruster, and it's cool you took the time to describe how each performed and compared. Excellent vid and content.

    It’s crazy how the pov cam makes those waves look kind of tame but from afar those waves would hold people down for days no doubt bloody awesome power in them, bloody awesome to see you ride actually pulling off turns etc on such a massive board as well

  • @morgandaviesmusic.
    @morgandaviesmusic. Před 3 měsíci +2

    14:10 Man, can't believe you kept your feet on John's board through that explosion of whitewater! Did not expect to see you emerge from that one. I really loved that wave you shared with Kai Lenny at 14:45 as well, top vibes (and props to the Z-Man and GoPro for the different angles throughout, always beautiful and interesting)

  • @barlow2377
    @barlow2377 Před 3 měsíci

    You look so happy out there man. Epic footage never seen anyone show what it's like being out the back with 20 other guys paddling for your life when a big set rolls through. The way you are able to flip around paddle and drop in almost instantly is incredible

  • @audioeins
    @audioeins Před 3 měsíci

    this is a great vlog. i like how you managed a few different camera angles and showed those to provide a comprehensive view and a great thorough idea of the rides and how it feels. great :) when the waves and boards get to that size, it looks like an intense experience, especially those crazy paddle in and drops and all the water turbulence. fun! :)

    Great vid. You guys really sent it. I noticed your guns have traction pads most of the full length. Do you do that for your shorter boards? My biggest boards range from 7'6" and smallest is 6'4". Any reason you don't use full deck on smaller boards? I use traction pads full length. They work really well in NJ waves even in winter and save on the wax melting in car in summer! Congrats on the equity position in a product you trust.
