    Amazing sketchy session 😳 I'd like to add 2022 is the year of Mahina and her steely nerve documentarian filming as well as one of the best athlete interviewers/commentators for the pipe masters. Now a few more restaurants and county side for those of us who can't travel as much is this old man's only request.
    I'm super stoked on everything you kids are doing may the blessings keep falling upon you two 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

  • @psandqs8981
    @psandqs8981 2 роки тому +18

    This stuff sits somewhere at the junction of sport, exploration and dragon slaying. There are lots of different definitions of success in life but carving out an original one is a pretty rare trick, these two are onto something really special and it's a joy to be inside the cut line of the first 500k people to being paying attention. Thanks Nathan and Mahina for providing inspiration and being insanely brave!

  • @TheSilverSurfers
    @TheSilverSurfers 2 роки тому +21

    Straight up, a warrior! From the walk down the bluffs to that paddle out, eager to move forward where most others would turn back. Thanks for the inspiration to face down demon slabs and keep on charging- both in & out of the water!

  • @guygraham8016
    @guygraham8016 2 роки тому +8

    Seriously, the best channel. Nathan gives such a real perspective. No slo mo music covered bullshit. He lets you know what it is like to paddle out. Kudos.

    No lie,.....this was the most joyous video ive watched on UA-cam this year.
    Without even audio you can feel the connection between the three of you. Mahina, yourslf, and the waves.
    Pure bliss

    This is what surfing is all about......no jerseys, no judges, no trophies. Just surfer and wave (and green room), thanks Nathan.

  • @fredcoler5636
    @fredcoler5636 2 роки тому +40

    I don’t write comments, but after a couple+ years of watching your extraordinary footage of you, Ivan and JJ fearlessly charging, I gotta say what a privilege it is to be able to witness these sessions - no less than elite athleticism. Oh, and never forget, marriage is a skill, an art. Kind of like, well, surf. And finally, your music is as it should be - pieces & tracks that probably represent your soul’s state as it blends with the particular place and conditions wherever you are paddling-out on the planet. Mahalo, man.

  • @NicolasValentinScotland
    @NicolasValentinScotland 2 роки тому +10

    This is excellent . I can see the adrenaline rushing and the will to get out to sea . Mega respect in the cold water and the frill . Cool video , massive respect .

  • @bradbloodworth642
    @bradbloodworth642 2 роки тому +27

    There's really no words you can use to explain how a session like this feels to the rest of the world. Such an Iconic and eerie break but such incredible beauty at the same time. Amazing coastline. Beautiful wave. And ncredible surfing and an unbelievable adventure. Those sessions when you're on your own are the elixir. Mahalo bro.
    Happy 2023.🙏🌏☮️🌊🤙

    Nathan, Your wife did an amazing job as a host interviewer during the Vans contest. Very Professional and well spoken. So RAD to see you Makua and the Boys in the mix. A lot of kookiness that went on with the contest But you guys as always hold it Down!! 👍

  • @greenstevester

    Solo soul surfing at it’s best, with only a live audience of your wife, who clearly is your best friend.
    Killing this comms medium like a champ. Inspires even the oldies like me to keep the spirit of soul surfing alive.

    @michealsikora4931 2 роки тому +3

    Always appreciate what you share but this one made me indescribably happy. I could feel the jitters. Hands raised before the paddle. Inner child eager to approach this oh so familiar and wildly unknown turquoise. Alone and somehow not. Sharing this with the one held closest. Knowing she’s here for you. See’s you. Thrilled to be soaking in this moment together. The wonder of new.
    May never meet you, Nathan but thank you for being so open with your life. It’s strangely caliming seeing your interactions with others, the surroundings and listening to the nuances of how your sweet one talks to you. All the best
