i hope this is the last time VANS sponsors this event. no live stream and late updates, we didn't even know the finals was on! congrats to nathan florence for winning both in the water and online
Vans was sold and new owners arent interested in supporting these events anymore. The surfers are lucky they even held it. Same for quick billabong and some other brands. Corporate owners have given up triple crown events. New wsl owners arent interested in hawaii events. Billionaires fucking up pro surfing just like they doing to everything else.
@@charlieduvall6463 thank you for explaining, just as I suspected, corporate sabotage. They want to bury the legacy of the Triple Crown and suck the life out of professional surfing making it less and less relevant.
double up the pricemoney for nathan for doing the livestream. without that, the pipe masters would have not even happend for everybody who wasn‘t there!!! and honestly, this livestream was waaay better than any official livestream i‘ve ever seen. it was like listening to a 8 hour podcast while watching pipe going crazy. best guests on the stream and didn‘t feel like the guests on the official brodcasts who have to to their sponsor duties..
Nailed it. It was like hanging out with your mates on the beach all day. If your mates were pro surfers and the beach is pipeline lol. As you said, best guests. JJF casually calling heats and strategy, mother Florence spilling some tea etc. Whole thing was a blast to feel a part of from across the Pacific
This wave by Koa is Pipeline History! What a contest - this has to be a live event! Thanks to Nathan to keeping surfing alive !! Deserved winner, what a legend!!!
Karma really has a way of showing itself, Nathan did what was best for the surfing community and the people, and the universe rewarded him with some of the best waves in the event!!!
What kind of kooks get shown up by a vlogger when it comes to coverage? Why even own the rights if you can't even provide coverage? I'll take the Florence coverage honestly. It was a real peak in to the North Shore community as well as the event.
Love the Competition but please do better on the coverage next year by having a live stream and not putting your host with the sun behind him so you can’t see him. Appreciate you guys but a lot of improvement needed on the coverage side. Congrats Nate & Ivan 👍
@Vans You guys should sponsor the winner, haha! Vans didn't live stream & we didn't even know the finals was on! Way to drop the ball Vans. Thank god for Nate picking up the pieces! Florence Marine Pipe Masters!
Erin is gonna be a menace on tour. She does all sorts of airs and she will charge 10ft barrels. I've never even taken off on a wave as big as that closeout she took. FML.
So The Pipe Masters has gone from ABC sports years ago to basically no coverage except a locals vlog 👏👏someone went over the falls and smacked their head …wsl vans. Thank you and congratulations Florence family on both accounts!!🤙
Vans Pipe Masters < Florence Marine X Pipe Masters How was there no live stream, was there a brainstorming meeting where someone came up with the concept of fans would have to buy a plane ticket to Oahu to see the contest? What a fail 👎🏼 Nate’s karma for providing a stream was well deserved! Best contest stream of all time, and chat was cooking haha 🤙🏼 Hats off to the Florence boys and the man himself Zoard
God blessed Nathan Florence in real time, he put all that good energy out into the universe through his UA-cam and then live streaming and God and the universe instantly rewarded him with some of the best waves of the tournament, and Nate was ready and seized the moment and took full advantage of every wave and opportunity he got, absolutely nailed it, bravo Nathan Florence, the Florence legacy grows!
Florence Pipe Masters next year?? Why not? The financial support, the local and world wide support is all there. The broadcast doesnt need anything more than it was for this event. (just fix the wind noise ha). It doesnt take a big production or big name to run these events and do the broadcast. If you have good knowledgeable commentary the viewers will be there and you already have the viewers on your side. Lets see it.
Thanks to Vans, Nate's currency just went through the roof. It's almost like you guys at Vans I have no claim to post anything about the event. At least team Florence was there to pick up the slack, just dropped out of promoting surf events and go your own way
Was pretty cool when I watched Nathan Florence win this LIVE on his own stream! It was entertaining and I hope he streams it next year!!! Or will we be stuck with the Surfline cams?
I like the production value on the recap videos, but just communicate that this is the plan instead of a live stream… also maybe more detail and drama to make up for it. Heck make it a 2 hour special, or a Netflix mini series We all like the event and want to see it run, we just want to SEE it. Thanks for putting it on, and thanks in advance for listening to the feedback and doing something about it.
It’s almost better they didn’t broadcast it don’t have to hear his annoying voice and why have a non surfer announcer? They tried that crap with motocross and it didn’t work well
Corporations thought they could turn professional surfing into a mainstream sport and when it didn't happen they abandoned ship. The sport would be much better served if they left surfing to the surfers.
Best way to kill a mythical brand in a flash: Sponsor the greatest Surf contest on earth and then just leave the fans in total dark limbo... no info, no nothing... I'm disappointed.
Fie, Vans, are you trying to kill your business? So much ill will over this contest, mainly NO LIVE SHOW? That is beyond lame, let's hope you never get the chance to sponsor another major surfing event or that you get your heads out of your corporate butts and start being worthy of something like this. You truly have no idea of the black mark this has left on the Vans name. Fie.
i hope this is the last time VANS sponsors this event. no live stream and late updates, we didn't even know the finals was on! congrats to nathan florence for winning both in the water and online

Easy, dont buy their shit
@@charlieduvall6463 thank you for explaining, just as I suspected, corporate sabotage. They want to bury the legacy of the Triple Crown and suck the life out of professional surfing making it less and less relevant.
100% they can suck my ass
@@charlieduvall6463 well said!!!
Nate quite literally carried the entire event on his shoulders. Thank you Nate and Zoard

Couldn’t agree more! Glad @WSL and @Vans dropped the ball with the lack of a livestream.
Hope WSL learns something from how these guys effortlessly entretained over 17k people.
@@NAAZAAAR WSL should fire all their commentators except Rosy Hodge and Salema Masakela and give Nate their camera crews, editors, etc

JJF casually calling heats and strategy, mother Florence spilling some tea etc. Whole thing was a blast to feel a part of from across the Pacific
They probably did it on purpose knowing someone else would stream it for free and therefore be off the hook
What a great broadcast…oh, wait. Here’s hoping next year we get the Florence Marine Pipe Masters!
I like the sound of that
Florence brothers have won back to back years, they own it already. Just let them host the whole thing lmao
If not for Nate we never would have seen most of the action. Great surfer doing great things!
This wave by Koa is Pipeline History! What a contest - this has to be a live event! Thanks to Nathan to keeping surfing alive !! Deserved winner, what a legend!!!
Which koa ? The historic wipeout or the historic barrel ?
@ haha both
Which minute so I dont have to watch the whole thing?
Wave of the winter competition for JOBs 27 earlier
Karma really has a way of showing itself, Nathan did what was best for the surfing community and the people, and the universe rewarded him with some of the best waves in the event!!!
This was the nail in the coffin for big brand surfing
"The greatest show on earrth" and yet you had no broadcast and barely functioning live updates. Shame on you.
So excited for Nathan he is on such as ride in surfing and on UA-cam!!
Nate and the Florence family won this event. From the live stream to the surfing they absolutely killed it. Vans, not so much.
What kind of kooks get shown up by a vlogger when it comes to coverage? Why even own the rights if you can't even provide coverage? I'll take the Florence coverage honestly. It was a real peak in to the North Shore community as well as the event.

lol, epic catch about the sun angle !!
@Vans You guys should sponsor the winner, haha!
Vans didn't live stream & we didn't even know the finals was on!
Way to drop the ball Vans.
Thank god for Nate picking up the pieces!
Florence Marine Pipe Masters!
Historic fumble from Vans. Bizarre.
And Mom of the year goes to Ms Alex. Such a cool Mom.
she said on Nate's live stream yesterday, "I would change everything about the WSL."
@@EeshaWilliamsShe also said Nate pooped in his wetsuit and left it hanging at Archy’s house. Absolute legend.
Masons one was looking real good😊. Thanks to Nate, Koa & the Florence brothers & crew for the live updates
"Lets get the greatest show on earth started." and didnt provide a livestream nor proper updates... Absolute discgrace.
Erin is gonna be a menace on tour. She does all sorts of airs and she will charge 10ft barrels. I've never even taken off on a wave as big as that closeout she took. FML.
Vans seriously what were you thinking? JOB not on the original list was the first sign. Smh
wasn't this the pipeline event last year that had all the drama? I can't remember maybe it was something with the rothmans.
Yeah Nate! Long time coming! Congratulations !!!!
Give it up Vans. Let surfers run the Pipe Masters.
Yeah i bet their board members are women and men in suit/ties
“Let’s get the greatest show on earth started” 🤣 🤣….then stream it live if that’s how you feel 🤣
Congratulations Nate!! Outstanding!
So The Pipe Masters has gone from ABC sports years ago to basically no coverage except a locals vlog 👏👏someone went over the falls and smacked their head …wsl vans. Thank you and congratulations Florence family on both accounts!!🤙
You know you’re out of touch when you get smoked by a diy podcaster on the beach! Thx to Nate and co for the great work! Congrats to Nate for the win.
Vans Pipe Masters < Florence Marine X Pipe Masters
How was there no live stream, was there a brainstorming meeting where someone came up with the concept of fans would have to buy a plane ticket to Oahu to see the contest? What a fail 👎🏼

Vans better never run this event again.
Such a sick action packed day super fitting end thanks pipeline congrats to all the surfers
Al cleland having a hell of a year wish he made it on tour got so close good work
Came here for Koa’s wave.
Nate florence is the new Chuck Norris! Nate florence can setup stream, get drunk & win the event
Shout out Blak Bear for the stream!
Vans is kooking it
God blessed Nathan Florence in real time, he put all that good energy out into the universe through his UA-cam and then live streaming and God and the universe instantly rewarded him with some of the best waves of the tournament, and Nate was ready and seized the moment and took full advantage of every wave and opportunity he got, absolutely nailed it, bravo Nathan Florence, the Florence legacy grows!
Nathan Florence with the live streams, thank you!
While drunk! The man is thr new Chuck Norris

Leave the hole wave I dont understand who edits?
Vans.. a whole crew of people who have no idea.
Selema is the LeVar Burton of surf announcing. Always on point with passion. Big love Selema!
Vans sold their soul like wsl
Damn this edit sucks, guess I will wait for Nathan's video.
Congratulations, Nate. I'm always happy to see Selema one of the best sports caster.
Epic conditions and epic rides this year ! 👍👍👍🤙
And people complain about wsl. This was a joke.
Who edited this 🧐!? Chopping up waves mid wave wth .! 🤬 made it to the butchering of Makana pang 3:41 then couldn’t carry on watching
Thanks to Vans, Nate's currency just went through the roof. It's almost like you guys at Vans I have no claim to post anything about the event. At least team Florence was there to pick up the slack, just dropped out of promoting surf events and go your own way
Was pretty cool when I watched Nathan Florence win this LIVE on his own stream! It was entertaining and I hope he streams it next year!!! Or will we be stuck with the Surfline cams?
First you don't stream live and now you don't show full waves - really annoying. It was such a nice contest, thanks Nate for the great coverage!
made my comment after the first half - the second half was much better (because calmer and full waves)
The Slab Tour produces it's first Pipe Masters Winner, Nathan Florence...
Congrats to Erin and Nate! That's awesome!
Zoard holding up the laptop for the stream at the end was all time.
Great contest. More than anything the spirit of the contest!
No wonder vans is a dying bramd..they can't even sponsor and livestream the event so people can see it...😢
I like the production value on the recap videos, but just communicate that this is the plan instead of a live stream… also maybe more detail and drama to make up for it. Heck make it a 2 hour special, or a Netflix mini series

Koa - such a legend
Zoard in the background holding up the laptop 😂
NEVER AGAIN
Vans missed the bus in this one. I've already seen this on Nate Florences channel. Vans blew it. Florence Marine for next years comp PLEASE
Am unsubscribing ... Nathan Florence & team is the only channel worth following anymore.
The Slab Tour king takes his crown at Pipe
Why would Vans have all this coverage and not bother to LiveStream it. So dumb.
Erin Brooks had the best wave and yes I know it was a closeout.
Would've been nice to know it was actually the finals yesterday....
Corporate greed has ruined this event. its clear as daylight.
Erin vs Caity will be the battle of woman surfing for the next decade. Epic
Koa rothman had the best wave in this video
Nathan Florence is beast 🤘🤘🤘💪💪💪💪🌊🏄♂️🌊🏄♂️🌊👏👏👏🙌
What's the point of not having a livestream for the most famous surf contest in the world?
Alan cleland was overscored. No way that wave was 28/30 in comparison to koas wave
Why do your shoes fall apart so fast now?
Nice one Vans... Take care, Sal 🦈
amazing local event
Elis one was the best for me, also Koas & Jamies. And of course Nates. Kalas too
calling JOB hawaiian is unreal
insane take lol
And did you forget to mention Kelly Slater amongst the greats...
Goo AL!!
3:45 we are here to see surfing not editing. eerrrraaaargh
Not streaming = Vans marketing fail
Team Florence to the rescue
Viva Méxicooooooo 🇲🇽
Ivan is coming fast really think he is surfing better than all just needs a little luck
"The Greatest Show On Earth", yet not shown to anybody. Pathetic.
Erin Brookes is already the greatest female surfer ever
Selema is so annoying haha
It’s almost better they didn’t broadcast it don’t have to hear his annoying voice and why have a non surfer announcer? They tried that crap with motocross and it didn’t work well
Go Flori!
Florence Pipe Masters
Flori? Nah…it’s always been the Flo Bros.
Genuinely never buying anything Vans again after this letdown
Vans is now a brand for kooks!!!!
VANS SUCK! Shout out nath and Erin!

The edit is broken ☠️
WHAT A JOKE VANS
Stop Using that Guy Selema Hes a Kook and Not A Real Surfer
Vans.. leave skaters and surfers alone. You guys are not in this for us anymore. You shouldn't be allowed to run any event. Thank God for Nate
vans blew it so hard with no live stream, shit event
I couldn't even watch it
Nary uhhh Brazilian. - One half
Méxican🇺🇸/🇲🇽
I’m switching shoes because you guys fucked up the pipe masters
vans is trash, so happy i was able to stream this...
