I’m a non-surfer who got hooked on the all the surfing clips during Covid. Teahupo’o clips are favorites. In spite of these being “small” waves, this is by far my most favorite ever clip. The audio makes my hair stand up. I hope this becomes a trend.
@@puffysnowball2261 if your into these type of heavy waves i highly recommend checking out Skeleton Bay, Supersucks Sumbawa, and Nias. If you havent already before. There are plenty others but those are prob my top 3. Might get a kick outta "Shipstern Bluff" break too.
older surf dude giving two thumbs up for the mellow soundtrack at the end of the vid. EXCELLENT. Agree the paddling and wave audio in the beginning was also awesome
This is one of my favorite vlogs! Love that you guys included the airport travel and downtime on the boat. That’s what really makes it feel like we’re there with you!
Such a tropical-beautiful place...sunset shots near end are amazing...more sunset shots..more......Great surfing guys... travel more..go while your young....
These videos are so awesome! I love how you guys add all the airport travels, prep time, boat time….there is something so raw, pure and authentic in what you put out. It almost feels like I’m there too.
I had to watch so I could hear "Hey Bra" at least once today. Never surfed a wave with boat access so I found the boarding method at 11:20 pretty cool.
Sick gorgeous rides ! But noteworthy was the dispatch off the boat standing on the board then seamlessly into paddle position low key super stylish 😉 oooh cool there’s the snausages puppy!🐶 beautiful footage beautiful waves epic sunset session so fun thank you !
Koa…This was by far The best This is Livin video….superb cinematography and you’re blessed to have such a tight circle if friends….Well done brother and this one rocks!
This is a pretty beautiful episode, guys. The rawness is so good. Jack, holler if you ever want to get paid to go shoot a ski trip in Alaska or Japan or something.
Man you should try Santiago in Chile to Tasmanias My last 2 trips have been 49 and 56 hours one way. Including a 15 hour layover in Texas 5am to 8 pm . And no I am not excited for your trip but really enjoy all you guys do! Mahalo young Padawan keep them coming
@@lordmatthewlukeobrien I don’t have much of a memory but they did a couple good swells a couple months ago… They’re going to show up live and stream anywhere it’s 20 foot plus… Let’s go
I love that there was no music over that first session. The raw sounds from paddling to the kick out were so sick.
That was impressive audio on the waves, you could get a better sense of power, the looks can be decieving.

Much prefer the No Audio clips with ocean sounds
Good to know we’ll keep doing it!

love the raw minimal editing vlog of what its like to travel there, sleep, pull up, showing the line up.
We’ll keep it that way!

The thunder from the waves breaking is so sick
wicked mic on his camera!
Right!
The ending with the sunset definitely this is livin

Stunning visuals at the ending sequence
Some day when your doing your pre surf talk, it would be nice to hear how much stuff cost. Especially surf boards on the airlines, boat rental, etc.
The videography here is next level.
Amazing sunset, great waves, looks like a beautiful place to visit....freezing in NZ started snowing on the mountains last night.

This shows a crazy contrast between this "small" and when it pumps. It must be unbelievable when its pumping

hi koa - your other board's design looks like a 60s/70s verner panton-ish.
Wow crazy flight schedule to get to Tahiti
u know u have a good life when u can travel to hawaii to tahiti to grab some waves :)
Perfect detox from daily insanity. Thanks.
wow from across the pond ✌
Thaehupo'o is one of those waves where the hardest of shortboarding is done
Great job on the music-less first session!
Keep it going !
be cool to see a "This is Living" boat !
If I could imagine heaven it would be this break.
tanks eh for the ride along.
Homies asking the boat crew if he needs help 🙏🙏🙏 such good people
Just super curious with no judgement but how much is that boat for the day?
I thought it was cool the Surfline went live… And you caught some of the first waves that they show… Way to go slab Hunter
@@lordmatthewlukeobrien I don’t have much of a memory but they did a couple good swells a couple months ago… They’re going to show up live and stream anywhere it’s 20 foot plus… Let’s go
Nice switch surfing regular at the start. You should do it more often 😂
I miss Tahiti so bad
Go back
Amazing heard you guys said. "Its small day" 😅
ELI! Cheers.
beautiful
that has to be more than 6-8 feet. Amazing video as usual
Pretty small for a big trip Rothman
8 months in New Zealand. Fark that’s ages.
Nice mullet Eli
11:20 that was slick
