Please add more story telling and explanation in future vids. It‘s also very interesting when you seriously talk about yourself and why you‘re doing certain things. Please tell us about pipeline, maybe also the line up organization of the crowd. Great episode!!!
"Not much going on at the North Shore"... just a quick look out the window behind Jamie and you see Lake Pipeline, yeah I would say not much going on but Waxson is in town again and would love to see a meet up.
Loved the vlog today! Sitting down in front of the camera to explain to us what you do and why you do it is something so special and very interesting! Appreciate that JOB! Staying PSYCHED!
Hey Jamie! Can you make a series of how to surf please? I also was thinking of how cool it’s be if you make a series called “Will It Surf?” Where you get a bunch of gnarly boards or random objects to see if they’ll be surfable 😅 JUST AN IDEA
It's nice just listening to you chatting and describing the breaks and sessions you've had. Not that I dont enjoy your other vlogs but this one is particularly cool.
This is *INSANE* 🤯🤪 🌊🤙🌊 The biggest shore break I ever played in was 5-6 ft max and it felt pretty intense. I mean I am nowhere near a big wave surfer lol, I love to hang out right in the knee to head high waves, novelty is super enjoyable for me, I just can't even imagine the pounding as I watch this. Absolutely incredible. I can understand the draw though. The power and suction and pounding and roar of the shorebreak does something to your soul. It is so therapeutic. It makes all the difficulties and challenges in life feel so much smaller, the rumbling and roaring when you are under and being pummeled and tossed around just imbibes this power into your being...... at least for me. It is cleansing and you come out excited yet deeply calm. I can't even grasp how much bigger these waves are than what I experienced it is awesome. Awe inspiring. I love this video so much. 🥰
Brah honestly a 5-6ft face at Waimae hurts like a 10ft face at most point breaks. The way it folds on itself and slabs on the sandbar is just heavy. That left by jump rock is mayjah lol
@@808bboarder Doesn't take much of a wave there to get tossed right on the sand. Great way to get hurt. Crazy to see Jamie charging huge shore break there, but he is smart and has a ton of knowledge of the ocean. Bailing feet first should be the big takeaway for groms watching!
@@GrooveDuude After getting tossed on the sand a couple times at Waimea I decided I'd rather not end up in a wheelchair the rest of my life. Some of the stuff these guys do with shorebreak (and jet skis!!!) is scary!
Aloha from Texas! I got the privilage to go to this beach twice last week and I Loved it!! Much respect to the surfers who have that passion like a flame. See you guys soon next year! Mahalo!
I grew up in the 60 s and I get it we had the wedge all to our selves before it was famous we got pummled there and thrashed beyond belief I love the shore breaks it would kill me now lol great vlog loved it Jamie!!!!!!!
Brah?!?! I almost drowned when I was 14 at Waimea shore break on 10ft on da head. Caught the perfect close out,could fit a truck inside and survived. But got caught inside no leash so was just me and waves dat was doubling up. Went under and couldn’t figure out which way was up and had to kick off the bottom. Best and scariest day all at the same time.
And Log Cabins when it's huge is so scary but definitely waimea shore break has fucked me bad even at just 5 and 6 feet faces at waimea when the life gaurds everybody how dangerous the break is and telling all the kooks to get out of the water every 5 minutes on the microphone 🤣🤣🤣. For real when waimea shore break has just a little power those lifeguards are on it with their speaker phones LOL but log cabins just scares the hell out of me especially since I went snorkeling over there in the summer and I had already served log cabins like a hundred times before I went snorkeling and saw the bottom and it scared the shit out of me
Man it makes me so happy to watch you post this. After getting wrecked over and over here in CR yesterday and loving every minute of it this gets me so stoked to keep paddling out. Thabk you for this!!!
Love watching your videos Jamie because your live for surfing and living is infectious….. but that keiki shore break looks absolutely mental. 👍👌 stay safe, don’t break anything.
Jamie your willingness to take these insane sketchy shore break mega beatings is crazy. Every time I watch I fear for your spinal cord. Don't stop 'cause it makes for the best vlogs lol
I remember I was a little keiki just getting into water sports. 1st vid of yours I watched was Freakside. Changed my life. And from that point to the remainder of my youth I was in HASA. Thank you for that. I'm so happy that you are out here sharing your passion, knowledge and lifestyle with those all around. 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
Dude you are FEARLESS! Either that or you're a masochist 😉 Going for those Keiki closeouts is like jumping into a lion cage wearing a toga made of raw meat! And that one backside shore break wave you made at Waimea was freaking EPIC!!!
Crazy and Gnarly waves Jamie. You and your crew hard core!!! I like watching your V Logs. Older now and more brittle. Keep Charging Brother!!! Aloha, Tom.
Great vlog as always. You mentioned "people have drowned" , thinking back to the 70's growing up on the North shore (go Red Raiders) and the friends I surfed with who are no longer with us. One in particular is Ronnie Burns, one of THE best and most influential surfers back in the day, and is no longer with us. I'm wondering if you could do a segment of these guys, maybe show some clips, just to help keep those memories alive. Aloha.
If you have been surfing long enough, shore breaking waves can be all for you to enjoy. Once at upper trestles i found a inside lil left, the guy shooting rolls was with sufer magazing. Verbally got my address and sent me 2 full rolls I was totally shocked. Now Im A doctor in rural health, but I was a surfer, before digital and internet. Also filmed at Campus Point Isli vista. Love the edit
This right here is one of the big reason I love your show , I'm a Hawaiian raised in Calif who moved to Hawaii in 1976 , we moved there between 1976 to 1984 , I was blessed for the first month to stay at my Aunty Susans shack in the Waimea Valley I caught my first bowl right there next to the rock and I've been hooked every since , I learned how Waimea works from my cousin Noah and Eddie Aikau , I love Waimea , I have a lot of big day storys , anyways , Your a bad ass brah , I have great respect for your surf skills . Okay bye .
I miss this place. I was a little girl facing those waves in the 70s. Before kids died from stuff lol. I still have dreams of being pulled down the slope, or clinging to the rocks with the waves lashing at my ankles. Priceless memories. They are not ptsd kine, but very emotional to me
I wish I would have went out to Cali when I was younger. Always wanted to learn to surf. I'm 56 way outta shape and over-weight to do that now. Love watching your videos.
Waimea is my favorite spot for a bit of smaller wave body surfing. The shore break can sometimes suck ALL the water off the sand and the wave crashes right into the sand. Gotta watch out for the rip current in the middle. Waves come in the sides but go out the middle.
Notice Porto Escondido is out Close out and crowds now.. Back in the day the train ran but sometimes you seen light.. Jamie you could tame the Mexican pipeline maybe next year you paddle.
JOB - I dig how you gave an overview of these spots in this vid. Nice way to change things up. Here’s something that I think a lot of us would appreciate…Can you do a video where you explain what you’re doing with your body inside a close-out barrel to minimize impact/damage? Since we can’t see you in there, how are you contorting your body inside the closing tube? Are you trying to shoot yourself straight out the back to avoid being slammed down further by the heavy lip? What are you doing with your arms/hands? Any insight to share on that would be awesome. 🤙🏼
I’m a mainlander from Oregon, when I was a little boy about 8 years old I almost lost my life at the north shore while on vacation. I was in about chest high water. Remember wave after wave hitting me while the rip tide was pulling me out. All I could do was yell “HELP”! Some dude plucked me out of the water and dropped me on the beach. Respect 🤙🏽
I met this dude in prison many years ago. Mike Darahbond RIP plenty hours kept trading stories about our home turf. His stories about pulling into Waimea shore break when they where keikis was legendary… I always thought of Waimea being a big wave spot … more then that a spot where legends are made ! A Hui Hau Aku No 🙏🏾 #legendsneverdie
Even the one you made was like.......... a" Hail Mary " ride ! For the record it looks to me like any session you survive surfing that shore break at the Bay is a successful session !
Ahh yeah, i almost drowned at Waimea shorebreak… prob under for a good 10-15 sec getting the worst blackout rag dolls ever, only to pop up to getting another 10ft set on the head 😵💫
Me and my mate Bernie used to surf a close out, wedge style peak every summer when the on-shores would whip up these nasty peaks, this was in northern NSW in the 80's, and it was same thing, late drop insane barrel, then smashed on the sand. What it did was make us better surfers when the surf was actually good and heavy, it gave us courage and skills to go after big heavy nice waves on big swell days. We would maybe make one wave in a 100 on those closeouts but we went for everything and constantly egged each other on to take a more gnarly wave than the last.
I put my board down at 27. Thought I knew what I was doing. (Florida, Texas, California) My little brother had to drag my naked unconscious body to the beach on Oahu's North shore. I found God that day. 😵✝️
How’s it Jamie? 1st everyone who surfs loves shore pound. 2nd Pinballs was my first experience at the bay in 1991 I was 15 and stoked out my mind 3nd Keiki Beach park get heavy too, very heavy Stay perpetually psyched brother from another mother🤙🏼
In the winter of 1987 there was huge storm and the North Shore was too stormy to surf and it was closing out Waimea, I ran into the water to body surf the shore break on my little kick board that I used all the time at the Wedge, and the lifeguard was running after me telling me not to go in. There was nobody out and I got 2 good sized waves, it really wasn’t shore break because it was breaking further out, but I got out of the water after those 2 waves because it was too heavy out there.

What a great idea!!
It's nice just listening to you chatting and describing the breaks and sessions you've had. Not that I dont enjoy your other vlogs but this one is particularly cool.
Surf knowledge... please keep sharing, I think it adds another element to the videos. Also thanks for the GP10 (best B-Day ever!)
Yes, get into the deets brah
Stay blessed and have a good day Braddah Mike 🤙
I'm not even a surfer but enjoyed the lesson.
Actually one of my fave videos this year. Especially having you explain what attracts you to the shore-break closeouts =)

Only very few people can do what you do. It‘s absolute extreme sport. You make it look so easy.
The shore break at my home break only gets to like 5-6ft max and it gets mega shallow and SKECTH. I can only imagine 12ft Waimea 😳😬
Brah honestly a 5-6ft face at Waimae hurts like a 10ft face at most point breaks. The way it folds on itself and slabs on the sandbar is just heavy. That left by jump rock is mayjah lol

Seems more like a body sacrifice ....a broken neck is a high price for a closeout..... IMHO
Word. I dislocated my clavicle at 3-4’ Windansea shore break, hockey checking dry sand. 😂

God speed. Good luck with everything.
Your a legend.
do one on Off the Wall.... which is the only place in my mind more scary size for size than keiki

Waimea at 6' hawn and Keikies at 4' hawn is about all I can take. Great job.
Loved this edit - really shows the maturity of you and this great sport. Watching with my daughter....
Lots of closeouts at home has been really frustrating. Thanks for a great lesson to keep trying the unmake-able, or maybe just break a neck. Respect!
Love watching your videos Jamie because your live for surfing and living is infectious….. but that keiki shore break looks absolutely mental. 👍👌 stay safe, don’t break anything.

U are the man living the fricking dream love you bro from gisborne new Zealand
You are living the dream in NZ! Spent 6 months there and its like no other place on earth. The people are wonderful.
Been away from the videos for a while and decided to take a look. That was as good as I remember. Great stuff from the JoB. Thanks.
FINALLY some insights! Love it, makes it way more special!

A favorite quote of Jamie's from a Keiki session "complete detonation" that sums it up I think. Stay safe and keep surfin.
Absolutely insane boys....pure psych!!! Yeewww
LOVE this style video, Jamie! Can't wait to come see you out there again this Winter- just hoping to catch a week of big surf while we're there again!
Wait galadon you surf?

You must have one hell of a chiropractor and spine doctor. Love your videos.
good talk, it's great to hear the nitty gritty details
4:32 is so gorgeous bravo

The 3 second ride....what a thrill
So fun to see this video. Thanks to share knowledge to improve the practice.
1970. Butch VanArtsdalen taught me how to do cut backs. He was with Eddie as a lifeguard at Waimea Bay. Fearless!
yehhhh d'boys
PSYCHING AT MAX LEVEL!!!!

That is why JOB is Highly Respected in the Line Up
Shore break scares all da smart ones. Kona side.
Model Citizen!! Ain't nobody else like JOB!
I've never seen anyone sort of put the brakes on the way you did Jamie, to let the wave catch you so you could ride it in. Amazing control.
Love it. Want it. You guys rock!! You’re golden
I was lucky to be there that day at Waimea shooting photos, what a day! I got some amazing photos.
