    Bro... you are sooo good at describing your craft. I don’t know if I’ve ever heard someone explain their techniques in such an articulate and visceral way. I’d imagine you would be an absolutely amazing commentator! Hopefully you’re never off a swell long enough for us to all find out tho. Thanks for this man

    You know the saying about “a smart person can understand complex things, but A GENIUS can EXPLAIN those complex things in a way that’s understandable” This is the perfect example of that! Nathan Florence could definitely be the BEST surf coach in the world someday or maybe even more like a “Surf Professor”!

      @@scottsmith4145 of course, but you never know til you go, being uncomfortable in a situation like what was said means your going to progress slowly if at all, and taking those risks is how one gets better at something, in life or sports or both and that teaches how to fall the best way, not panic as much, gives one confidence in what’s next, teaches you to control emotions better and those are valuable things to help progress, and not hesitate as much, or not at all, that’s what gets one in trouble most and that’s for shit in and outta the water,.. this my opinion that’s all

    It's funny, normally I would hate a video like this; a long video where the person just rambles. But...I couldn't stop watching. It was like sitting down with you and just having a great conversation where we all got to ask questions and you shared tips and war stories. So enjoyable. Thank you for doing this and for sharing all this great info. I truly enjoyed it.

    • @mitch60mccoy
      @mitch60mccoy 4 роки тому

      Nathan, I hope you see this additional comment because I have several thoughts about what might bump your RAW videos to the next level. Remember, as the person creating the video, there are many things you know that we (the viewers) don't know. For example, I really enjoy it when you slowly turn your board around so we can see the environment and who's out in the water with you. The issue is, I don't know who these folks are. So it would be great if you added a simple pointer label showing the name of each person. Your viewers would then feel like they're more a part of the community and be so much more engaged and in the know.
      Second, while the GoPro is a great onboard surf cam, the audio infamously cuts in and out. So it would be great if subtitles could be added to the video so we (the viewers) could understand the actual dialogue. Again, the audience would be so much more engaged since they could understand the dialogue and really know what's being said in these moments of craziness. This is similar to the NFL Films when you get to hear the players inside the huddle or on the sideline chatting and so forth. Very cool.
      I know this would add more work and time to get these videos released, but it might be worth a try as it could provide a significant impact to viewer engagementand and boost your subscribers numbers. It might be worth a trial. Maybe one or two videos.
      Perhaps you could get a grom to do it for you in exchange for advice or something?
      Anyway, keep up the great content. I'm a sixty year old inconsistent (and now longboard surfer) with a bad back. I grew up in Santa Cruz and now I get to experience surfing vicariously through work like yours. Be safe. Be strong. And thanks for the great content!

Your parents must be extremely proud of you both too! That wave would kill 99.9% of any persons who even dare to attempt a paddle in on that monster I got scared and get goosebumps just watching on my tablet! You don't need weed to get high!
