Personally I like incorporating the lifestyle content of living in Hawaii blended in with the surfing. Grabbing coffee at the shack, workouts, drinking w the boys. Vlog style. I think a lot of people enjoy the day in the life stuff, as well as surf clips of course. Cheers
It was an honor to deliver your pallet to you. Didn’t wanna geek out too much, but been subscribed to this channel for years now. Glad we could help get your merch to you safely! 🤙🏽
I would probably geek out if I met Koa too. I have been subscribed for years also. Love Koa, Eli, Jack, Nathan, John, Pyzel and all the other characters from the North Shore. These guys are really "livin" the dream.
Koa, I see videos of the reef at Pipe and it always amazes me why more folks aren't hurt as it looks to be no more than 3 ft. deep. So, if you could let us novice folks know how in heavens name do you survive when your falling on those particularly big days. Do the larger waves pull more water off the reef when its firing compared to the smaller days. And when we see 2nd and 3rd reef firing, how deep is it in those areas? You asked us to give suggestions as to what to do about subject matter, well here ya go. I love your videos. I lived in Honolulu in 1967/68 went to Washington Intermediate and spent the rest of my time at Kaisers and that area. Never had the nerve to surf Pipe but I love watching you and the crew. Thanks, keep up the fine work
loved you and eli talking about the fish. always a good day when u get to eat fresh fish someone caught. stuff like that never happens living on the mainland. i always like watching the boys just cruise and joke around.
For your next video can you talk about your Dad - where he was born, where he grew up, where his parents were born, and your own connection to the Polynesian Culture?
Koa you make some of the best content on youtube period! I never was into surfing, Id watched a couple surf comps on television back in the day when I was a kid but never followed the sport. A couple years ago, I got on this shark kick watching videos about them which caused one of your videos to pop up in my recommended, I guess because its ocean based content. I've kept up with you, nate and the sport in general ever since. I've got major anxiety issues but whenever I'm having a tough day, I'll come watch this is livin or nates slab tour and its such a great comfort watch so I know I cant be the only one! Its more than just the content, you are such chill guys with personalities that are just easy to like! What you're doing not just for the sport but just for people like me with this channel can't be understated...you should be proud, you're doing so much more than just making money sharing your adventures with us...I just hope you know that and just thank you for that!
Remember a couple of years ago when you were broke and didn't have money to fix your broken beat up old Toyota pickup truck? Look at you now! Well done kid! You made it! ❤
Cool thing about being as talented as Koa is that your surfing can speak for you, so the need to interrupt yourself with chat-chat is vitiated. Forward Koa!
Elis Backhand game is on fire , got them Shuvs and back 360s , Another great episode Koa n jack , love the banter episodes you guys are hilarious ,, looking foward to the Podcast With Mr Cool (Ivan) hahah 🔥🤙💚🍻... Koa go out on the jetski with Eli and make a Fishing episode , cook up a feast and have some beers 😁😁 Much respect All the way From West Oz Down under
"Couple fun ones". I swear this is the best YT channel. Great content, music and video. And watching you do what you love to do, makes me believe I could do it too.(um ... no) Hahaha. Thank you.😄
When you were talking about places where the sun is strong, we live in southern Vietnam...just like Indonesia...I actually ordered a hat yesterday like the one Ivan was wearing in the water.
You are a great surfer Koa with perfect stance, as good as any surfer who ever surfed ,love to watch your moves on small and big surf where you charge as the king of Pipleine "Stay safe in this realm "
I always remembered October having some of the hottest days of the year in lower Puna on the BI. Probably more early maybe mid October tho. Go shred now!
Koa, careful with the overhead workouts. They aren’t worth the risk, especially if they go behind your head. They used to flair up my neck issues so bad.
First of all. Really enjoy your clips brother. I'm a Marine & I worked out a lot when I was your age and fully extending your arms doing full squats puts a tremendous amount of pressure on your back. Light weight is probably ok maybe with dumbbells. Beings you've had surgery. Just be careful & keep killin bro. Love your vids at Cloudbreak. That wave is supernatural. And on the 7th day, God didn't sleep. He brought Fiji out from the depths & shaped that reef that produces the best surf on earth!!! Deuces.
Can you do a vidio that shows the sciences/wonders of "Pipe"? Some underwater video of the x3 reefs and where they hit the swells! Maybe some overhead on a calm day that traces the reef? I think that would be super cool? Thanks for all your Vids
Here in Central America the sun es bien bravo. I've seen visiting surfers,and non surfers ruin their two week vacation by getting a bad sunburn the first day out, a gringo tan we call it. Do some surfing at V-land, Haleiwa,or my favorite Laniakea for your vlogs .Pura Vida desde Costa Rica
Was in Bali 2 weeks ago for a trip nd the UV is what gets you there. 2 hours and lobstered but it goes away in a couple days which is how you know it’s more of a UV burn
Forklift driver should have readjusted and pushed the pallet all the way forward in the truck bed. Definitely not a safe way to deliver a pallet of goods.
Enjoy living vicariously through you and your days on the island. Keep up the great content, we have alot of downtime here on the east coast. Especially here in South Carolina. Country life is similar to Island life in some ways lol....yeew
Yo...Eli board is dope! He's a human lure 😳I'mma go buy me a Fanta! Or uh Sunkist!! 🥵Still waiting for Pyzel to release my signature Crouton Koer....What's the hold up???...I got other offers...
Hi Koa, I know you once did a video on the different spot on northshore, but have you done a video already explaining how the surf conditions evolve throughout the year, like month by month or can even be less granular. Just an idea. I’m coming over in February, so as usual I go on an do my research on conditions, average size, what crowd to expect, even water temperature. I’d rather watch one of your videos instead ;)
Dig your insights. As a old soul CA surfer the line up is getting crazy and the young ones expect too much without the respect for elders and the surf rules to keep it safe. I still let the old timers who have been surfing the same waves the pick...they deserve the respect.
I'm down , I will contribute to your awesome cause!! Too old to be mixing it up anymore (without a motor😂) Enjoy your channel You seem like a cool cat Cocoa Beach shout out I really enjoyed O ahu Magical place
Awww come on now... You know da rules! Throw me down a hoodie, @ Koa Rothman! 😂🌊🤙🍻 It's already freezing in Cali! The theracane & my S hook are the best invention for muscle spasms. I had neck surgery & can't get worked on.. that tool & trigger point work are a back saver! Get better! Happy your for is all healed up!
koa always been a big fan, lately content has been repetitive. Nice mix would help daily life style, travel, surf new spots. Just my thoughts much love.
Koa just always cracks me up with his droll North Shore pedigree, so patient and exasperated that he's hilarious. Love this dude and love him with Nate podcast, he brings the crazy sane angle.

Yep, totally agree with you. I really enjoy that to 🤙🏄
yeah the life stuff mixed w the waves is dope
Ditto

Dope! What logistics company do you work for? Looking to move out there and have a background in logistics and freight brokering for 3PLs
Click bait title causes chaos on UA-cam
Baitclick
Click..boring
For real...I think you can see a total of 7 people in the water....but then again we only see 5 waves surfed? What is this channel...
You’re a real one for this
True..apologies, dog act. Mad backhand hack Mr Rothman
Do a complete quiver beak down from models to dims. Layout all your boards and explain exactly what you ride and when.

Ladies he's single lol That looked fun! Thanks Koa and Jack, always!
loved you and eli talking about the fish. always a good day when u get to eat fresh fish someone caught. stuff like that never happens living on the mainland. i always like watching the boys just cruise and joke around.
🐟 we eat fresh fish all the time in San Diego! fresh sushi, ceviche, smoked collars, you name it haha
Everything hurts. A glimpse into senior surfing. The waves looked fun.
Koa: “This is why October is the best month to visit Hawaii”
Also Koa: “WHATS UP WITH THESE CROWDS?? SO DANGEROUS!!”😂
😆
as pizel say, dumb and dumber.
It's clickbait. There was no chaos. Koa's channel has gotten lazy.
Eli was killing it 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
Why all the hate?
Who doesn't love surfing at a loved local break on a good day? I can appreciate how much you surf Rockies!
FISHIN TALES WITH ELI OLSON,
Eli needs to take you out fishing & VLOG the fishing trip. So we can watch it.
For your next video can you talk about your Dad - where he was born, where he grew up, where his parents were born, and your own connection to the Polynesian Culture?
Couple fun ones! Great idea for a T-shirt.
Koa you make some of the best content on youtube period! I never was into surfing, Id watched a couple surf comps on television back in the day when I was a kid but never followed the sport.

Tweaked my neck, and it’s super stiff… Proceeds to throw Buckets of spray on his back hand.
Lol love you dude
Remember a couple of years ago when you were broke and didn't have money to fix your broken beat up old Toyota pickup truck? Look at you now! Well done kid! You made it! ❤
Cool thing about being as talented as Koa is that your surfing can speak for you, so the need to interrupt yourself with chat-chat is vitiated. Forward Koa!
Elis Backhand game is on fire , got them Shuvs and back 360s , Another great episode Koa n jack , love the banter episodes you guys are hilarious ,, looking foward to the Podcast With Mr Cool (Ivan) hahah 🔥🤙💚🍻... Koa go out on the jetski with Eli and make a Fishing episode , cook up a feast and have some beers 😁😁 Much respect All the way From West Oz Down under
Winter Content, will get me on a surf trip. Thanks from ex hardworking and poor N Shore Maui resident landlocked for too many years.
"Couple fun ones". I swear this is the best YT channel. Great content, music and video. And watching you do what you love to do, makes me believe I could do it too.(um ... no) Hahaha. Thank you.😄
Thank you Koa. Grateful.
Thanks for that "Summertime, or summertime with waves". I thought I was the only one who thought that.
Eli was ripping!!
Perfect vlog... cool tunes, daily life, rippin' wit dah boyz! You know dah rulzes!
KOOK!
Weird audio on this one boys, LOVE hearing the ocean and waves in the back ground of the beach clips of koa talking!!
When you were talking about places where the sun is strong, we live in southern Vietnam...just like Indonesia...I actually ordered a hat yesterday like the one Ivan was wearing in the water.
When doing that heavy lifting, add sauna time, stretching and yoga or flow movements to keep limber.
Def helps!
Pretty epic beach composition during fish story!
Zero trades here on Big Island too and cooking hot even at 2,700"
Liked and Subscribed finally!
You are a great surfer Koa with perfect stance, as good as any surfer who ever surfed ,love to watch your moves on small and big surf where you charge as the king of Pipleine "Stay safe in this realm "
Haha yea. How about Koa is the Prince of Pipeline... the King is....... drum roll... Ivan. Just joking.
@@mjl.9-19well its obviously job. john john is prince like it or not. but koa n nate tie for coolest award
I always remembered October having some of the hottest days of the year in lower Puna on the BI. Probably more early maybe mid October tho. Go shred now!
Koa, careful with the overhead workouts. They aren’t worth the risk, especially if they go behind your head. They used to flair up my neck issues so bad.
the screaming baby 🤣
10:17 Enlarge your screen and baby flings himself backwards on Mom's hip. Little guy was mad!
I was wondering when that online store was gonna get restocked.
Literally every item---sold out.
First of all. Really enjoy your clips brother. I'm a Marine & I worked out a lot when I was your age and fully extending your arms doing full squats puts a tremendous amount of pressure on your back.

love the colour grading of this vid! Those greens and white foams is hard to get on video. Makes it look like real life
Hope your merch sells out quick! I like your content because it incorporates life and surfing.
It's amazing how many people want the ocean fish we catch.
Fun rippable session. Can't wait to see the new merch!!!
New zealand summer sun hits hard
Video idea: Go on a fishing trip with Eli
Train when there's no waves, when there's waves just surf... Stretch and surf that's what you need
Ya gotta go fishing with Eli now Koa. That’s gotta be some sweet content 😉👌
Rhombloid is where your pain is. It sucks and last for awhile if you don't treat it
Otto hats are rad! If that’s what’s about to drop yeeaaa 🤙🏽
Can you do a vidio that shows the sciences/wonders of "Pipe"? Some underwater video of the x3 reefs and where they hit the swells! Maybe some overhead on a calm day that traces the reef? I think that would be super cool? Thanks for all your Vids
Eli has some serious skills.
Order is in! Send It! East Coast SSI, GA

Eli was ripping 👏👏👏
I saw a guy in the El Porto lot wearing your hoodie. Going to the link now.
More epic paddle outs!
😄
I love Oahu u should show some more of the island
super rad..hard work paying off!! Strong sun in Puerto Rico.
Eli Olson kills the game!
Fresh wax and solar cream . Good Hydration too 😎
si.....de-wax & wax! Looks so nice there ...great job!!
Sick new merch str8 from the Gildan sweatshops of Honduras. Get yers now!!!!? F yeah.
U mind sharing dims of the boards you’re rising??
Thanks. Cheers🤙🏽
i surfed 2 foot peelers in naples, florida today😭😭glad to see you healthier brotha
Eli's style is sick
Forklift driver should have readjusted and pushed the pallet all the way forward in the truck bed. Definitely not a safe way to deliver a pallet of goods.
Damn... that baby wasn't havin' it!
Enjoy living vicariously through you and your days on the island. Keep up the great content, we have alot of downtime here on the east coast. Especially here in South Carolina. Country life is similar to Island life in some ways lol....yeew
No wind glass... winter like summer
Yo...Eli board is dope! He's a human lure 😳I'mma go buy me a Fanta! Or uh Sunkist!! 🥵Still waiting for Pyzel to release my signature Crouton Koer....What's the hold up???...I got other offers...
death rock looks just as deadly as it was in the 70's. Whe it swings does it go Chambers rights or all the way to Pupukea? Kind of NE swell?
FYI: regular t shirts don’t stop UV rays.
New Zealand has really strong sun bro, sunscreens and boonies during summer fo sure
Eli got the pop shovits on lock 😎
alot of waves coming this living keep surfing 🌊

its been pretty hot in southern California as well i can't wait for it to cool off here
wtf
Music was on point this vid
Yeah an adventure to other un or less known surf spots around Hawaii would be epic
Just keep chasing your dreams🤙I just need something to watch at work
Next session is at rocky point south ..followed by rocky point north .then rocky point south again
I like watching you guys on Big Haleiwa---that place can be hectic.
I dont ever see you guys out at Sunset --young guys prefer Pipe I guess?
Beautiful day 😍
Arizona in August if you want to get serious about the sun 🍻
Explane more of the boards you are using the day. Do you try 6 deep channels for hard slaps or Pipeline ?
Dig your insights. As a old soul CA surfer the line up is getting crazy and the young ones expect too much without the respect for elders and the surf rules to keep it safe. I still let the old timers who have been surfing the same waves the pick...they deserve the respect.
Truck's RAD.
I'm down , I will contribute to your awesome cause!!
Too old to be mixing it up anymore (without a motor😂)
Enjoy your channel
You seem like a cool cat
Cocoa Beach shout out
I really enjoyed O ahu
Magical place
I hope that hat jack had on the insta story will be available
That kid has some lungs!
be good to hear what ivan has to say. how was the waves in peurto!
Koa, what about your back-biceps? Are those sore?
Nathan's nickname should be t-rex
Tinted sunscreen or not at least you remembered it 😂
Ty Bro!
Blue water is toooo blue. Maybe less color saturation on post production?
Awww come on now... You know da rules!
Throw me down a hoodie, @ Koa Rothman! 😂🌊🤙🍻
It's already freezing in Cali!
The theracane & my S hook are the best invention for muscle spasms. I had neck surgery & can't get worked on.. that tool & trigger point work are a back saver!
Get better! Happy your for is all healed up!
Oops. Your FOOT.. stupid phone. 😉
Merch… you should make rash guards man.
Filmer should check the horizon line
Love your channel
koa always been a big fan, lately content has been repetitive. Nice mix would help daily life style, travel, surf new spots. Just my thoughts much love.
lowkey the statement of "couple fun ones, should be on a Tshirt..." sent me and idk why lmfao is actually not a bad idea tho forreal
Koa just always cracks me up with his droll North Shore pedigree, so patient and exasperated that he's hilarious. Love this dude and love him with Nate podcast, he brings the crazy sane angle.
Content for you guys surf on wave days and fish on flat days
