Hey Nathan, the bodyboarder is an old friend of mine, his name is Andreas. Australian living in Berlin for years now. Great guy!! Looks like you guys had fun
Love it. And mad props to old mate sending it as a fellow boog, the energy I get off you being un biased towards bodyboarders gives me hope for the future of slab surfing, whatever shape of the craft, charging is charging
Cold water surfing is extremely difficult used to hate surfing in the winter in Ireland when i was beginning but strange thing happens after a while you fall in love in the pain and struggle. Honestly impressed how easy you adapted to the cold brother:)
As a year round surfer in the Pacific Northwest I can confirm… by the end of winter you really feel like you accomplished something lol
Ireland water does not get cold, how do you think I feel surfing the north sea at 6 degrees
Beautiful place!
totally agree with you! something about the extra struggle makes it all feel more worth it, and i got super fkn fit paddling in the cold with all the rubber on!
@@NathanFlorence praise Lord Jesus Christ Almighty 🙏❤️ 24/7!
Love the glove rant!! A good tip for solo sessions in freezing weather is to bring a cooler full of hot water and leave it by your car when you go out. When you get in put your hands and feet in it to regain feeling, then you have enough dexterity to get your wetsuit unzipped (to unlock the car and get your suit/gloves/booties off)!
This is my favorite vlog of yours I've seen. First time ever hearing Celtic music paired with surfing, and the landscape shots were so awe-inspiring that I actually got unexpectedly emotional taking it all in. What an amazing place.

E P I C vlog man. The end almost looks like where Thanos threw off Gamora for the Soul Stone, the "Ultimate Sacrafice". Look at me sounding like a movie diehard and i dont even like Avengers much, just couldnt help myself. That place at night with a storm is probably eerie as all hell. Epic break too, love seeing you be-friend a booger(as i am one myself!). Seemed like a chill down to earth dude. He charged it and got some bombs, those pits he was in prob were some gnarly views man. All with no booties or gloves sheeesh. The wifey is a legend for staying out and recording, thank you! Be safe guys!
This could be my new fav vlog of yours and I pretty sure it's because of your wife natural reactions to your surfing and how you edited it to feel real organic by, for example chosing non distracting background music which volume didn't overpower your wife's reaction to your surfing and the sound of the waves and nature. Bravo!
..Mahina's infectious sweet smile & giggles adds sparks to your Amazing video..brings a smile!! Thanks for taking us along on the journey!
agreed
the first music is "banish misfortune"
here is a link to the tune ua-cam.com/video/0V291iuiqlc/v-deo.html
One response about unexpected emotion, was spot on, something about Celtic music does that to about everyone, my oldest son learned to play bagpipes, and every time I hear him play, I'm in tears, but back to this vlog, nice job Nate, crazy too, is that rock there looks like a quarry for castle building, too cool, this was definitely one of your best
I remember getting to watch this session in person, me and my mate hiding behind one of the windmills trying to get out the way of the freezing wind and rain haha. Was sick getting to watch you and the bodyboarder trade waves on such a gnarly slab🤙
Loving these edited treasures from last year … Mahina & you are a great team. Musical selections perfect adding some humor for anyone insane enough to surf this frkn cold stuff … you don’t see Mahina out there do you? She’s sane, thankfully. Gorgeous slabs of geological formations! Thank you so much for sharing!
You really do just put out the best content! Love how wholesome you are
His surfing bloody good but his paddling always stands out. He made the paddle out look so easy when it could have got ugly real quick. Seems like all that training pays off.
thanks boss! paddling in all that rubber took some getting used to but once i did it was on!
That's what I was thinking! Like at 8:11 that could've gone really nasty if the duckdive was mistimed, but Nate made it look so effortless!
Yeah the entry was sketchy with the second duck dive, timed well and with a bit of luck.
Love the music, the scenery, the charging! Great episode.
Watch out for the foam: it can be deadly… if you get pushed into even deeper foam where you can’t get on top of by sitting up, you can suffocate. Happened to 5 Dutch very able surfers 2 years ago in a freak accident! Cheers for another great vid!
Nearly drowned above water in really big surf near Trestles years back. Freaked me out for sure. It's like the surfing equivalent of a tree well.
@ToneLok
Well said and when you know, you know.
yeah, the surface can be tricky. Once I duck dived and landed under a loaf of seaweed and was stuck under it. I had to get off my board and slide next to my board and later exit.
Yeah, I remember that happening as well. Foam can be very bad news.
Thought about Scheveningen and the 5 men who drowned right away when he started about paddling in the foam.
Be careful out there
Thanks for the great video 🙌
Nathan, I Love your enthusiasm and love for your "Mat". She's a keeper!!
You called him William as Mahina was filming him coming in.
What incredible drone shots at the end.
Crazy place. If rocks could talk, the giant waves they have seen. Gnarly.
Thanks P.j.
The table like slab of the shoreline revealing the slab below. A bonafide slab break and a chill that could kill. A very artful presentation. I was mesmerized by the surroundings and in awe of the boldness to surf such a place. Well Done.
Cold cold cold! I used to surf all year round in UK until I tasted warmer foreign winter waves 🤣
Props to Mahina for staying out in the wet and cold to get your footage.
"I'm committed to you babes." Sums up your gorgeousness as a couple 💕
As other comments have already said, it is so impressive that you're prepared to do such cold waves. Thanks for another great vid Nate. I hope you're able to surf again now and start creating new footage. Lots of love to both of you from the UK 🤙✨️🙏😍
As a bodyboarder, that gentleman is luckyyyyy! Imagine getting to have a session with Nathan Florence, randomly lol cool video as always
Yes Andreas! He told me he met you and surfed with each other. Mad to see the video finally
whats his Insta i wan tto send him his clips
Another awesome video, beautiful area and Surfing. I got cold watching and had to put my blanket on 😂
Unity. Thanks Nathan. Your inclusion of boogs and other wave riders is very appreciated. Helps more than you know.
Beautiful drone footage! And what a blessing your wife is, she’s enjoying herself as well, you can tell!
Precious memories that will last a lifetime. Beauty images Mahina y Nathan. This is why you need to travel and explore the planet. Inspiring
One of the best surf videos bibs ever seen. Two people brought together with the love of surfing. The music is perfect too.
btw here is the music ua-cam.com/video/0V291iuiqlc/v-deo.html
Might need to do some more vlogs together. Some surfing experiences shared between you two. Good quality wholesome entertainment
🙏🏼🤙🏼👌🏼
what a cracking vid, cheers to the Aussie on the boogie, and cheers for saying 'legend' and 'unit' in our vernacular, I'm sure you're forgiven for forgetting his name ☺
Love all the music!! Including that goofy song during the session LOL. Reminds me of the band "Ween"
Probably the best video on channel! Great music, commentary, scenery! Well done! Now come to Canada!!!
I love that no matter what standard you are, we apparently all get the exact same look when we get out and think we could have done better at a session and can't take our eyes off the sea, trying to figure out what you would do differently.
I’m not a surfer but a technical diver and this reminds me of a dive I did in Iceland. There is truly something special about the pain that makes the payoff unexplainable.
When u surf real waves it unites surfers & bodyboarders, u kind of want others to b around cuz something could easily happen. Big ups to that dude for joining
Very cool… great surfing and those kids were stoked to meet up with you!!
Music , scenic beauty and surf, all wrapped up in a great video.
This was the best vlog ive seen in a long while , loved it!
ty for giving bodyboarding some love hope for a collab with mason ho or som bodyboarder in the future to
Epic looking coastline team
Great viewing again
Keep searching that ultimate ride
The color of the water there, just beautiful.
Wat a great way to meet people..nice Nathan.. lot of people my never get 2 Hawaii, so this was amazing for them..and people love it..i meet Rob mahcodo( spelled wrong sori)in Raglan talked a wee bit,best day ever..🇳🇿✌️
Just beautiful, a rare gem for youtube surf clips.
So awesome! My Irish, Scottish, Norwegian descent loves this.
That is one heavy slab boys!! You guys are way core to charge it along with the cold water!!! Good on ya lads!!! 🏄♂️ 🌊 👍
The shoreline at that place is gorgeous. One of the best.
Another sick edit! Awesome cinematography, solid slabs and some local legends 🤙🤙
Thanks for sharing, music was on point APU,
Looking good👍
@6:45 I find mitts or lobster claw gloves improve paddling, and because fingers are together they are much warmer.
As one on the very few bodyboarders I know in Scotland…I absolutely love this!!!
The end shot is unreal! You two are the best, hilarious. Nate legend🙌
Mahina and the bodyboarder are the stars of this film 🥶🌊🫶🏼
agreed!
Thanks for sharing man… appreciate.. much love to you two.. hopefully the legend shows up in the comments ..
Gloves are good, not those five fingers…only lobster claws!…gets way cold over here…lows in the high 30’s… once it goes below 60 over here I’m the first one in the full gear, hood up…everything and I don’t peel nothing off until at least May! Great video!
are the claw gloves better ? I wear gloves but not tried the claws in Australia
@@0warami_7oo up here in New Jersey we all wear the lobster claws, they are warmer because your four fingers make the water warmer then individually, and you can get a big stroke when paddling.
@@njonebale7889 lobster claws just sounds so good I gotta try some
@@0warami_7oo word! I’ll send you a pair, I got plenty!
@@njonebale7889 come and visit this august, when it gets cold down here and bring the lobster claws
Nice drone view of Castle of Yesnaby. Which I have climbed a few times back in the 80’s. Beautiful islands.
Dude you've got to get mittens they keep your hands much warmer because all your fingers are together plus less seems along with more paddle power .
2nd song is cracking me up man - great few sessions Nate!
My fav VLog besides, Barley...Straight up charging in heavy water, No bullshit and no hype, Stoked to see organic content like this growing!!!!
Such a cool parting shot. Thanks again for the great content.
Such a good Humble Sport Nathan,mad Respect!
It's nice to hear and see Mahina. Maybe you should hire her as your voiceover narrator in addition to your filmer?
Nate, you & Mahina are Legends! Braving the cold with the body boarder to get Barreled. No pain, NO gain.
Good on ya crew! Next C T tour stop. Ha . . .
thanks dude
You should tour New Zealand. Would be a sick vlog
hopefully be there for all of april may
@@NathanFlorence That's the best time of the year to come cos you can get swells from both the north and south and the water is still warm. The whole country fires. Highly recommend Northland, Raglan, Gisborne, Taranaki, Dunedin and The Catlins.
@@joeskienz Fond memories of Dunedin.
@@NathanFlorence You will love New Zealand. Just about every geographical landscape you can think of squished into smallish North and South island.
@@joeskienz i think that he allready knew to come in that time of the year ;)
Sick drone footage at the end. Scotland - "the land that time forgot".
Cool Ending to this Vid! Thanks for Sharing Nathan and Mahina!
I truly enjoyed seeing your wife in your blog, finally! 😂 Good stuff Nate!
Duuude.. If you don't go!!! Gnar.. Good for laughs on this side of the computer.😆🤐🧐
Y’all are an amazing couple bro. And your soooooo underrated. You should definitely be surfer of the year on all the mag covers. You kill it homie.
Gotta say These shares of you guys are wonderful. Ohana.
P.S. we need more glove rants... please?
Nate thank you for the content. What an incredible place. Hope you are completely healed soon
@3:37 great different refreshing music to hear in a surf vlog... A+ though at no point I see credits to the song musician's etc. You should include credits in video or description.
You just gotta get used to gloves...paddling isnt that bad. Pretty much all cold water surfers wear them. Great vid...incredible scenery and sketchy AF spot entry and exit. Highly interesting!
Great video brother much love from PR! Those cliffs are so epic, it’s on my bucket list to camp on the edge of one of those super dramatic cliffs after a psycho surf seshh!! Thanks for the inspiration, best wishes brotha yeeeewww🤙🏽❤️
Such a rad session looks like a blast!
Love the Gerry board, red with a big bolt!
Thanks for sharing the swells this side of the pond!
You and the wifey make a great vlog team.
❤ that one Nate that was really cool. Pardon the pun.
Great videos! I’ve been loving the music as well!
When that music kicked in...😭😂😂😂😂
so enjoyable to watch 👌🏴
Freaking awesome. Definitely going to have to fish up a board next time I’m across the pond!
Hey Nathan do you ever see any fish/marine life in the waters around these cold slabs in Ireland and Scotland ? the water looks cold but nice & clear just wondering if you ever see anything as no one ever talks about the life underneath the water around those parts.
"go in!....i have the angle!"....classic!!
At least this session it was only mildly super sketchy compared to that last time. Boogie was killing it yeeeew!
Wow those rocks were so perfectly stacked. 🌎 is neeto! Cold water souls!
Such a cool edit from an amazing place in some challenging weather for filmer Mahina!
Respect to nath, Hawaiian dream boater has no need to be working hard or freezing cold. But hes taking on one of the most hardcore north Atlantic swells . Nathan will you be coming down to north Devon, north Cornwall ?
maybe this year boss!
that spot looks so insane!!!
Good stuff!
At the end, it was like Cody meeting Big Z from #SurfsUp
Raddest video ever!!
Nathan guide him! Nathan: check out these rock formations though 😂
The landscape is amazing.
so insane! The water temps alone are insane
Killer soundtrack 🤣⛳
Welcome it’s cold in the uk today enjoy our shores and good luck 🤞
*Sketchy bro....*
🔥👑💯
Yep spent most except some surf trips abroad surfing in cold water, Cornwall and now North Wales Started at 18 now 56 and still going mostly now body boarding .That paddle out with the rocks behind ,been there digging deep foam every where not seeming to be able to move forwards LOL .The water temp here now is 6 deg C Wales very annoying as we have had ground swell for 2 Weekes and i only have a 4/3 boots and gloves and can only last about 45 mins in the water but hay no competition for waves only me out there .On gloves i use 1.5mm and a tight fit just enough to take the edge off the cold but not hamper the paddling. Going in the water later on here i can watch from my lounge window and go when its at its best LOL.
Me:😅Alegra, do you think I’ll make it surfing in the cold ?
Echo silver : You have been taking cold showers for a couple of years now, I believe in you!
Me: I don’t know about that 🥶😹
Looks like our lineup in Alaska last summer 😂🤘🏼
What a incredible place! You and your wife seem to be amazing humans! I love the vlogs and also your incredible talent! Keep up the stoke!🙏🤙🏄♂️🥜
Sik!!!! Go the Aussie random!!!!! Awesome guys!!
The booger lad was showing Nath how it was done. :)
@@Thisonegoestoeleven666 I know, some sik late drop ins into big DNF slabs!!! I think ol Floral was suffering from “too much tropical weather” syndrome!!!! ( jokes Nath!!! ) booties and gloves!!?? I’ve lived in southern Tasmania all my life, cold is good for ya, wakes u up in the morning!!!! Cold, actually it would be nice to have warm water occasionally!!!!!!!
That board has got to be reinforced with Titanium!! Same board Nate rode at epic Puerto Escondido
Boogers name is 'Barefoot McFreezingtoes' rumour has it he is still trying to thaw out his pinkies!! Joking aside; how good are decent locals! That was a great watch!
