- The El Slammo classic is now 4 years running! Absolutely stoked to bring this epic event back to it's legendary home at the world famous surf break El Slammo. It was fun to sit out of competing this year to simply focus on judging & crowning the proper champ. Looking forward to surfing on Christmas morning, wish me luck! Hopefully my xrays come back good & I am ready to rip! Thank you for all the stoke & support over this process & please enjoy today's VLOG! FOR THE DREAM!! - Ben

This contest is WAAAAY more fun to watch than any contest run by the WSL or ISA.......and it has more views than most heats on the pro tour. Thank you for sharing with all of us your stoke. 🤩
Seeing this much Joy from a group of surfers brings me back to growing up in the 60’s when surfing was a sharing brotherhood of happiness and being one with mother ocean. What a pure joy it is to watch you guys keeping the dream alive. Hope you feel good on your return to shredding Ben. The world is a better place with you in it. Peace
Ditto fm another old guy!
CLASSIC YARN
Love the Victory boxer belt and trophies with cash. Slammo stoking 🌊
Bro...Ima florida boy and can't even imagine water that cold...my dad was captain of Greg nolls east coast team in the 60s his shop was in Beach haven NJ...and he told me about yalls cold ❄ conditions...I'd die brah...lol...good stuff Ben...heal and keep the dream alive man
Very happy to see you back in full stoke mode. Injuries suck but if anyone could find something positive in the situation it’s Ben.
Im glad your healing well and its good to see you back Ben. I can say with experience, there is nothing like being humbled by life
I think we should all just take a moment & reflect on how well Ben took that slam to the collarbone! Handled it like a champ! Stoked to see you're recovering well bro _\m/
Ben and Casey Willax are easily the most underrated positive vibe warriors and health enthusiasts on CZcams. Wouldn’t spend 30 mins on CZcams anywhere else
Was Casey here surfing?
Looking at difficulties as a Blessing, is perhaps the most important characteristic a person can have! Stoked for you to get back in the water, even more stoked you concurred the down time with style! 🤙
Love you Ben Gravy! Got injured the same day as you, tore a calf muscle. Been rehabbing and strengthening and Christmas is my "release date" too. I've surfed your 7' and 9' boards the last couple of years and love them, a lot of fun had on the BG Wave Bandit boards. Yeeeewwww!!!!!! PS- Make more videos, they're golden.
Good luck on your return! Merry Christmas !!
This format is so much better than the Pipe Masters' this year. Gr8 fun.
Mr Gravy.. “Ben” watching your vlogs for yrs. Thanks for staying real and delivering good content! Cant wait yo see you back in line up bra🤙🏼

What an amazing vibe your crew has! Good times!! My wife and i are off to Tofino, BC, Canada on dec 26 for a week of frosty paipo riding fun! 14 years ago i broke my collarbone into 4 pieces and now rock a nice Titanium plate and 8 screws. It is stronger now than ever! Good luck with your mission to hit the waves on xmas day!!! love that the spot is now known as 'Collarbones'!!!!
Definitely more vlogs of you and the crew! Was fun to watch.
See, out of your misfortune came many unexpected blessing. As I said in the beginning, you are young, strong and determined. Best wishes for your Christmas return to the surf.
I love it ❤seeing you guys gets stoked on the most trash conditions is fun to watch 😂I’m surrounded by surf. But no skate park. I get stoked on a curb or a parking bump

Really enjoyed this video with all the local surfers. So cool. Awesome claims….🏄♂
Wish I had your luck mate. I got epilepsy January 2017 for first time at almost 40yrs. Had seizure and drove car straight off road into powerpole, ripping apart front of car. Finally got licence back 2019, but lost alot of classes. Lost house, job, and half of family. Got job then about 3yrs ago came off motocross bike and broke leg and destroyed knee and every ligament torn off bone. 3 operations later and can't feel leg below knee. Got back into it then lost my dog of 11.5yrs. Boss just fired me before Christmas after building all bikes required before Christmas. Got nothing and no one. Over it.
makes a little broken collarbone seem a joke. Sorry for your luck bro, chin up, great things are just around the corner for you.
El Slammo Classic never fails to entertain! Gravy Navy for the Dream!
Life is a blessing, Have a Merry Christmas and a great New Year!
That's awesome news mate.🤙

Heavy Claims!!! Looked absolutely epic. Best/most gnarliest Comp of the year! Keeping my fingers crossed for you to be able to get out there Christmas day. Also, stoked that even though the injury sucked at the time, you've taken those positives from the experience. 🤜🍍🤛
