Guys thanks for all the feedback and stoked you are learning a few things!! Here is what ill do, many of you posted comments asking about breakdowns of different scenarios, look thru the comments, like the one you want to here about, most liked comment on info question ill answer and breakdown in the next video!
Really like these informative videos, super helpful. I really think you should do more of them. Thanks, Nathan! 🤙💙
Your videos are unbelievable helpful and I saw thousands of them! You bring so many details!!
I'd super love to see you post the board models, volumes, and dims, and your body weight in each vid. Would be nice to be able to calibrate how you're thinking about boards for each session.
Always learning something new ;)
Dude this is awesome brother thank you so much
Please do a tips and techniques series, seriously helpful!
Yes yes I agree 1 trillion %
Absolutely
We are so lucky he does this for free. Even if he does get paid in views, we're getting free in depth surf lessons from a world class professional.
would be sick!
universalperspective common sense really
Bro do a maneuver series! Would be sick to hear your technique! Us mere mortals need all the help we can get.
Trueeee
Tips on catching waves and wave reading, left, right, close outs, when to start paddling, when you’re screwed. Moving from kite surfing to surfing, I find this to be the hardest part.
enzo3440 thats rad man
Never make the mistake of doing a pushup challenge before charging big pipe.
pickle fork N wiggles hahaha never!
Nathan Florence Listen to Pickles, he’s onto something here
Lmao!!
You talk about everything in such a good way. You’re really good at making people envision the exact situation and explaining just what to do. That’s a talent. You’re a great surfer and a great teacher. Thank you!
Agree 💯
aimee and nathan sitting in a tree k.i.s.s.i.n.g first comes love then comes marriage then the baby and baby carriage
As a beginner I used to watch so many how to duckdive videos which didn't help at all other than learning the movement. Now that I'm a confident duck diver I've learned most these things you talk about through trial and error and trust me when I say that this video is hands down the best duck diver theory video out there
I'm enjoying the story telling vibe. Super engaging and just feels like you're having a casual chat - no ego no fluff just straight up genuine content.
So true!.
major respect for not cutting the video, straight off top. F
Truth
Somebody send Nate some art for his walls.
I'll get right on that soon. I do Big panoramas. Stay tuned. Hit me up bro.
The only wall he's interested in is the one where the window let's him view the swell! Maybe!
The light switch kinda breaks up the blandness of the wall behind him! We know he has faced hell many times but has the confidence to use his skills to beat whatever the ocean throws at him! stay safe Mighty one of the sea!
lol good one
Your literally one of the best surfers, I don't understand why you haven't got millions of subs!
@John Dunbar is he actually? i couldn't tell, i just watch his surfing 😂
@@hitcho5812 he has a gf
#1 surfer this year
Is up to us to spread his nice videos!
John Dunbar and you’re commenting on his channel 🤣🤣🤣 stop stalking ya creep haha
You would be amazed at how many surfers young and old have never been educated on this vital aspect of surfing before. I truly think this video is going to have influence on energy expended in the water and overall awareness and safety for those who watch. The way you explain with science and firsthand experience is a huge blessing. This is essentially one of those masterclass lessons people pay for but for free...Who knew you were an amazing TEACHER as well as pro surfer / fitness guru / etc. Thanks for being such a great role model all around.
We can feel how genuine you are when you try to help out others, love the attitude love the video thank you.
I don't even surf anymore, but wish I had this advice when I was younger. You could be saving lives. It would be cool if duck dive technique was taught. I could never get deep without wave transition in front of me.
Even though most of us have never surfed 10 foot plus, your experience on those waves is helpful from a knowledge standpoint. Much respect to you for this information.
My favorite surfing explanation series on UA-cam by far
Hi Nathan. I would love a run down on how to bail whilst in the barrel ... forehand, backhand, large vs. small waves etc.
PS, thanks and love the vids
This would be insanely helpful
Just a heads up, he just made the vid🙏
I was watching an interview with Slater years ago, and the best thing to do is not bail. Stick with it to the end, but if you do, it's natural to dive forward, I still do sometimes, but he claimed it's better to kick your board forward and fall back, which I have found is less abusive. It's counter intuitive.
This also applies to dealing with women.
xyzct hahahaha if she is apexing on you bail bail bail
definitely bail if it's lip to head
I take my redpills before I duck dive any female and wave. Coach Greg Adams, a must see channel.
@@c.1211, Coach is AWESOME! And that brother has been getting better and better with every video. Every guy should watch him.
@@xyzct oh yeah, I agree. 👍😃
Congrats on the 40k!! Subscribers, wish you all the best legend!!, thank you Zord for all the hard work you’ve done.
what a nightmare to go backwards over the falls at Chopes. I'm getting huge chills when you're explaining it. I would die in 2 seconds for sure.
U can’t hold your breathe for more than 2 seconds?!
@hazza I don't think erikka would die in 2 secs from not having big lungs, more like die of a heart attack
@@eddyjones9395 exactly
Best duck diving advice yet! Top 5 tips - default to duck dive, the duck dive scoop, turning your board sideways to surface through boils, on beach breaks finding the pocket five feet before the lip, and opening your eyes on the first set wave to see between plumes and boils, where you can swim to the surface. Thank you for keeping the NS safe and fun!
Yessssss broooo!!!! Been waiting for this!!!!🔥🔥🔥
I duck dive with a big red X on my back. At least that's what it feels like at times. The lip always finds me. My worst injuries were the results of my board getting away from me when getting caught inside. One thing you may have wanted to mention is if you are separated from your board while duck diving as you surface block your face with your arms either crossed or like a boxer. Boards become missiles when returning to you.
Yes that has happened to me and it is not a nciebfeeling
Oh yeah I just cover my face and relax when I get swallowed.
X marks the spot!
A six+ footer broke in front of me at Marine Street La Jolla years ago. When i eventually shot to the surface, my board was above me and i hit it hard with the top of my head. Stars were seen. An impression of my cranium was made.
As noted, come up with a hand first. I’m a diver and should have known better, but the holddown was a bit gnarly and i din’t think of it.
Love all the shred, POV videos, and funny stuff. Hope to see more of the master class stories and info too. Huge help to lower my kook to get real and usable tips I can use at my local. I dug this and your talk about wiping out at chopes. Keep killing it! 🤙🏽
The true purpose of having UA-cam here! People would pay for the knowledge and experience you just share. Very encouraging and helpful!!
Thank you for doing these types of vids!!! Such a huge help.
Also, when bailing a big lip on the head, turn your board parallel to the lip-line, as the lip landing along the board is less likely to break the board. If board is perpendicular (at 90 degrees to the lipline) the wave will break across the middle of the board and is more likely to break the board.
I learned this the hard way about 2 weeks ago
Good call ! Will remember that tip.
Nate, you might also include turtle rolling, and "longboard duck diving" (where you tilt the board sideways to push it deeper).
Nate your videos are so awesome we appreciate them so much !!! Good luck in 2020, gonna be your best year yet !!!
I laughed so much when he put everyone’s faces on the ducks hahaha this was some quality content for sure thanks Nathan!
In What minute?
Ashley Trondson haha thanks man
What are you on about ?
7:34
We've only had waves big enough in New Smyrna Beach once where we had to bail to get out. Halloween of 91'. But I hope to one day have it again. Thank you for the info bro. You are a true Guru of big surf. Love to watch you charge. Keep them coming
Really appreciate these informative videos, really helpful. Thanks Nathan! 🤙💙
Nate! you make the best videos keep them coming!! Fun to see the behind the scenes on those big waves and all
my favorite part is those deep sighs after you have given a complete thought, example, and then keep searching your memory --- thank you for sharing so much knowledge!!
keep doing this type of videos, love em
This video and your recent gopro video of big pipe are two perfect examples of unique content you provide. So few of us would ever have your perspective of big pipe - it was exhilarating and scary to watch. Your earnestness is much appreciated. Keep up the great work! Mahalo!
I agree with the last guy. You have the wisdom and while you really will not see us in the lineup at pipe, we still appreciate the info. When our local spot goes loco! We need some advice to man up and deal with the conditions. Great channel.
had being waitingg for this vídeo, i real respect your knoleg and the way you share. ty
Great points. I will duckdive all the time unless a real square board breaker or timing is off. One thing you didn’t mention is paddling back 10 to 15 feet to let initial impact explode and mellow. It has saved me many times. Nice work on blog.
Highly descriptive and informative discussion of the details of duck diving in powerful surf. I have tried to describe these techniques to friends in the past and had difficulty. Excellent job and keep up the good work.
Having those scenarios playing in my mind, and I already feel the chill through my bones.
What a great lesson for guys in big waves, I'm not even believing that there were 78 guys that didn't appreciate this graduate level lesson in big waves. You ought to consider becoming a Navy pilot. You've got more guts than a lot of guys I flew with. I've always thought flying and surfing go together, especially now with foils. Great lesson Nathan, Awesome!
dude you have the best surf content on yt I've found so far! always straight to the point! Keep rocking (y)
Bro! great video. Very informative. Gives insight into techniques that 90% of us would only use on the biggest days at our home breaks or on surf trips. Great stuff for the toolbox!
Nathan, amazing stuff, the mystery of getting out with the giant surf has always been a wonder. The paddle out was cool to see also. Keep it up, sick material
I love this content Nathan, you explain it really well and turned me onto some new tricks to try. Here’s another topic I would love to hear your thoughts about...Close out barrels, when and how to bail so you don’t get sucked over the falls with your board alongside. Jumping forward vs cutting out the back. What to do when you are committed and know you’re screwed. Thanks man, keep charging you’re killing it!
Nathan, thank you soooo much for your insight!! I feel like I can’t get enough. Please continue to educate on this!!
So sick!!!! Good break down bru :)!!
Bravo Nate dawg. Great thorough commentary on the topic. Subscribed.
Great video man! Thanks for the knowledge
First vid I have watched of yours and I'm subd.. really informative and useful
thanks for this info Nate! Ive been surfing since 2007(Atlantic) and naturally have always used my foot to duck-dive with, the board goes deeper & you have more control underwater!
just got to Brazil and I'm a bit of a kook, this is couldn't have come at a better time! thanks Nathan.
Thanks. Your expertise definitely helps. I always try to hold on to my board. I’ve ditched my board a few times ( no one behind me) and it’s always worse. Broke my board a few times that way.
I havent even watched this already liked. Been waiting for this, thank you!
Man I love your content! It’s such a different approach to so much many other surfing channels. Thank you 🤙
Thanks Nath, always very informative & insightful!!
Your da Mantis 🤙
SICK...and natural honest delivery! GREAT Job!
Thanks Nath..good post..spreading out like sea anchor in big ones so Ur board pulls thru is brilliant. Thank u
Thanks for a super informative lesson nate! Showed it to my grom kiddos...we love your vids easily a 500 dollar lesson for free super appreciative bro! Love watching you charge! Stay safe!
Much respect for sharing knowledge that most keep to themselves.
this was awesome, it kind of reminded me coaching kids wakeboarding and how to learn to fall and how to fall etc to avoid injury. Probably my favorite channel on youtube
Love the honest approach dude, respect 🤙🏻
this actually helped so much, thanks Nate
That was heaps helpful man, cheers. The side on thing and the timing between explosion is such a good explanation. Didn't realise that's what was going on when I flooked it but now I know. Hopefull going to get some decent waves tomorrow, cheers from Aus!
Very helpful video! Thanks Nate and congrats on the 40K.
These vids are sick Nate!! They really help! I love story time bro!!
This is awesome 👍
Love the variety of pissing around having a laugh with your mates, great surfing, and these explanation videos.
Excellent excellent stuff !!
Thanks for the breakdown! I don't think one of us will EVER need the teahupoo duck dive but great for novelty purposes
Your honesty and thinking on the spot, as your filming.... is really considering all the variables. You seem honest and real man. Thanks.You are good at teaching.Explaining well so others can visualise is a skill.Your sharing could save many lives..........a little knowledge goes a long way in big juice.
This is GOLD. Thanks for sharing.
Been looking forward to this. Could listen to this stuff all day just awesome 👌
The tip about big white water duck dives was money. It's also really nice to know that the whole issue of getting out is still a genuine 'problem' that requires understanding and technique even with pros. This is something that is never really addressed for intermediate/advanced surfing. Thanks
Awesome to see cant wait to watch this in a minute
I've never seen this guy before but he seems super nice and intuitive. Great casual personable way of explaining things--yet also very articulate and thorough.
He’s a good man. . and thorough.
Thank you so much, nathan!!! You answer my biggest questions. Thank you.
Super helpful! Thanks Nate! Appreciate your humility
Thank you for this quality content Nathan! You're my favorite surf-vlogger. Best wishes from Argentina
Thank your for this!!! I'm new to surfing and have used and watched so many of your videos! You're a friggin savage. Keep the surf vids going!
So sic Nate love you're work bro you boys are killing it yeeeow
Best duck dive/bail video ever!! Ledge Nath amazing insight
Keep em coming brother. Thank you.
Thanks man - that was seriously helpful.
Thank you mate brilliant video! All the questions I wonder about. So refreshing and interesting Loving the content. Cheers
True ambassador of surfing. This is awesome video.
Nice positive contribution to the surf world, thanks for the video Nathan and thumbs up!
I'm old and don't surf anymore unfortunately..i watch your surfing life and it takes me back to my younger surfing days living on the Aussie Northern NSW Coast..you seem like a nice kid who has been brought up well with family values..my advice is life goes past very quickly so never take it for granted..and everyone bleeds the same colour blood..keep enjoying your very lucky life
Love your Videos Nathan, thanks for the content!
Great explanation of all types of conditions and dd's, keep them coming!
Two questions:
1. What is best technique for bailing in really big water? I see hawaii guys in videos often standing up beforehand are they trying to get board under or some height to dive down?
2. There is this video of your brother duck diving in a pool and staying down to "swim" or frog kick along the bottom ua-cam.com/video/ss58f0kAsdc/v-deo.html. Is this functional and do you/he ever use it in the water?
Really appreciated this video and the Chopes one. A lot of us don't get opportunities to practice in big water and things like this are valuable for those times when surprise swell comes in. And any time you want to break down techniques you have learned in Aircamp PLEASE DO.
johns technique only works if your board has no fins on it, so sadly not applicable in normal surfing. notice in the video how his board has no fins
@@albertozellner4368 He did have fins on, he even mentions hitting them on the bottom of te pool.
Here: ua-cam.com/video/G9syJ1t-L_U/v-deo.html
Super helpful man, thanks for taking the time to drop the knowledge
Super insightful for all experiences…. Thanx Nathan 🤙🏽
Found about about you through watching Koa's "This is Living Series". I am so glad I did. Thank you for your great content and for sharing your knowledge. Keep on charging!
Very helpful intel! Thanks again for such cool videos! :)
Excellent, I think it's safe to say we'd all be very thankful for more vlogs like this one. I would love to hear your take, tips and tricks on how to perform a grab-rail backside drop on a hollow wave, like Pipe. Again, excellent.
Turning your board sideways to help it navigate its way up is such great advice. I don't know if I would have ever thought of that but I can assure you I'm going to try that going forward. Thank you Nathan!
Incredibly clear and helpful. thank you thank you thank you.
only been surfing for a short time. i am 55 yrs old. I had no idea there was that many situation.. my board is a 9ft. thank you. Very good teacher. You have a future in it after surfing. Thanks again.
You are really good at breaking down and explaining things Nathan, that is a rare skill. You should definitely do a trick and tips series of videos. Good job.
Thank you . Went over the falls first time last week , Was gnarley. Several times.
Thanks Nate. Very useful for everyone who listens I'm sure.
