Translation of the conversation between cop and boatman: the cop asks the boatman if he's heard of the ordinance ("t'es au courant de l'arrêté, chef?"). The boatman complains that there is no reason for the ordinance as the surf is small and no one is in danger. Cop then says any boat that has stayed in the channel past 12 o'clock will be cited. Boatman says 'what you're doing is disgusting'.
why is the gov't telling people when they can surf 🙄and why are they prepping to tow in in bigger waves if they're being kicked out of head high waves?
@@KoaRothman Code Red just means huge swell coming, so any nautical activity is prohibited. It's a bit dumb in your case, but that alert is to prevent people from dieing. As any wide-range law, it can be frustrating, but it's too save people.
For me these videos are awesome because of the moments like at 3:08 where Koa uses the ankle strap of the leash to get wax off the bottom of the board, makes sense as a tool that’s right there but I’ve never thought about it. ✊✊
Gorgeous Board Koa...... reminds of the days back when Mark Richards came on the scene and had those vibrant colors and his classic superman MR lightning bolt.
One thing I like is the analysis yall do on the size and frequency of waves and to a lesser degree your boards. I imagine high level surfers like yall are all like this, I don't think most laymen are. It appeals to my hidden nerdy side Ne parle francais btw (really je ne parle pas francais but pretty sure it gets shortened to what I said first)
There is something tremendously commendable for these select few high level surfers who have found a way to travel the world doing what is ultimately a leisure sport... on a wave that wishes to ultimately kill you...
The cops were saying that all of the boats out there will get ticketed, which is dumb because as the Aussie guy said, its his livlihood But the cops said he could contest it. I dont get why they are doing that to begin with??? Anyway, looks like you had fun. Thanks guys!
Les flics ont dit que le conducteur du bateau savait bien que c'était code red et qu'il n'aurait pas dû sortir, mais il leur a dit que ce n'était pas code red le matin quand ils sont partis. Les flics ont dit qu'il serait poursuivi mais qu'il pourrait contester. C'est assez injuste.
Big Surf Forecast in cahoots with Tahitian goberment to cash in on code red swells for streaming by limiting boats in water- therefore less film competition and chosen surfers in water..? Also, great bit about the coconut trees and wax removal leash cuff material. Interesting too to see shore pick up out to break. Looks like a great spot.
Can you tell us more about Surfline? I am curious and I also found their forecasting very weird. My membership is renewing in 10 days and I am thinking and leaving it. I will just miss the webcams... Thanks
That's crazy how you talk about the coconut trees. I don't know for sure but I guess the tourism in Owahu is more than chopu, Liability with coconuts falling on tourist or howley. It's crazy I was in Barbados and we would give the locals are old baggies or trunks. And the locals would say do you want breakfast? They would climb the coconut tree barefoot bear hands get coconuts and run into the field and pick banannas, we would give Him ten american doalarms for breakfast and he said that's more than he makes in a month. It's crazy the little things that mean the most in life!!!
Ur govt 100% owned by corporate interest, it's not the govt that's the issue, its the corporations who own it and gut ur country for profit that's the issue. No countries deepthroat US corporate interest as hard as the aussies, Canadians, and pomms, yall be choking on that merican c#&$
they don't realise it makes locals hate them more, I mean they know way more about safety at this site then the gendarmerie which are mostly guys from France. Another way for controlling locals life, anyways let's move on.
Seems like a few of your buds from your usual North Shore Crew group text chats are there with you. John-John & Ivan Florence and Kiron Jabour, aren't there, right? That Jack-Dude filming does well. Sound ain't half bad, either. Chopes was pumpin'! Carry on ... The vid you posted 12 days ago, at Chopes, was waaaay more intense than today ever looked. Waaaaaaay more!
The French cop asked the captain if he was aware of the [ county ] ordinance whereby commercial operators would receive a citation past noon. The captain replied he didn't know about it because they left early in the morning, that there was no danger, and that it stunk! The cop replied he'd be free to contest the charges later ( presumably in court ).
Your boat driver is a legend, he told the gendarmerie that what they were doing is disguting and it is. Why do they always need to annoy the people, same shit in France..
Screw Surfline and give us back our Magic Seaweed.
Exactly man I don’t like it at all. Really struggling to have a overlook for waves in Greece.
Agreed
Magicseaweed was much easier to understand and it wasn't run by the man
Frr
You son of a gun! Keep on crushing it!
Wow thanks legend! ill do my best!
nate looks like the first Amish surfer
😂😂😂
He is Amish

Yep---6-8ft face is def not code red.
I was wondering this whole time what they were talking about. thanks for that
@@KoaRothman you’re welcome!
Thank you sir.

Damn! Thats wild, I guess they own the ocean now too
FREEDOM!

Sound is high quality too. 🤙🏼

Jack is the G.O.A.T.
Water is so friggin beautiful there.
💧💙
let s go Koa! I love your videos. I also like that you didn't put any soundtrack or music when you re surfing, makes it really relaxing!
You and Jack have the best vlogs on the planet Koa! Love the editing, videography and content. : )
Thank you!
+ Jamie oBrian and Jackson Lebsack
loving the candid vids with your hommies and shredders!
Yep, I almost feel like another surfer on the boat.
Almost....😄
Y’all are doing really well with these videos. Quality is absolutely amazing. Love watching!

Stoked you liked it!
God this videos are addicting to take me out of my reality of not being in the ocean or near it haha
Im glad you liked it!
wanna see more power surfing from you koa!! more laybacks pls
Ok im working on it!
Gorgeous Board Koa...... reminds of the days back when Mark Richards came on the scene and had those vibrant colors and his classic superman MR lightning bolt.
thank god the government was here to protect koa from this super gnarly 4 foot chopes swell don't know what he would've done without them.
Keep up the raw vlog style. Im diggin it!
ok ok will do!
Love how you keep us updated on every aspect of what you go through. Much respect brother
That's when a local is connected and wants to thin out the line up....hahaaa
Big brother always wants to control what we do and looks like it’s the same in Tahiti now. Good luck trying to enforce no surfing 🤣
So glad, im not the only surfer who gets sea sick !!

Thank you I'm glad you liked it!
@@KoaRothman Koa - you’re THE best - self honest - world class
and you came through a difficult
growing up
Much aloha to you - ❤️✅👍
Love your content. Awesome footage and editing, Jack! Might be time for me to buy some merch
I love how blitzed Koa gets for the monologues
Apostrophe violation is why cop’s showed up
You're on it boys ....about everything.
Nate will be the most sunburn. He has the same skin as the Lucky Charms Leprechaun 😂
Its so funny because in the Scotland and Ireland videos, Nate fits right in to the local scene there, even though he from Hawaii!
Definitely Koa is getting the most sunburnt out of everybody in Tahiti right now 😂
Nate is a ginger---he is going to cover up.
Somehow Nate did win the sunburn contest haha
@@KoaRothman haha I stand corrected
So sick. Vlogs are always improving lads. Heaps of good laughs in there aswell. Bringing solid content to the followers Koa/Jack 🤙🤙
Nat, the sun burn King.
Nate is a legend lmfao

The camera likes him.
That place looks amazing .

Welcome to France, cops are complete bullies there

When are the sick black and white striped sunglasses coming out (purchase link).

Thanks
Surfline is In with the cops!
thanks for being realer than nate and job tbh i guess(after watching the podcast) thats why i always preferred your vids
great vid as usual from all you chargers.
Sup brother? Seems like cops are everywhere when you’re in the middle of nowhere! Always watch for them!
This is living alright!
on surf and snowboarding trips I bring the Celsius powder..... Coffee is so 2018
It’s called “ Checkin the prop.” When you gotta pee on a boat
What’s up with the tour rest waves?
Got to watch you at back door shoot out, what a great day!
These people live on a different planet than me right now. 😂🏄♂️🏄🏄♀️
Surfing starts at 7:30
good to know I had no idea
Really enjoying the raw action footage! 💯
Im stoked you liked it!

Hawaii a hundred years ago...🤙
🎉 another one ☝️
Not being a debbie downer I thought it was cool how how every every spot is different kurt and how you pointed out it's in the southern hemisphere.
Is Warren's place still there right next to Chopes he makes the Best poisson cru
So im guessing during olympics if its 6ft they will kick out the surfers as well?
Its about to get huge on west coast new Zealand we got some big swell and wind right now so get some waves in boys nice vid be safe
fully here for the surfer's journey to acab
nah most of the talented surfers i know have working brains
No way nathan would be acab, I mean he’s pissed in this cuz it is messed up but he would never call them all bad lol
Beautiful spot. Those wave shots are amazing looking like you are there. Hopefully the police will let you surf the bigger surf.
Sucks we have to wait another week to see some surfing!!
Is this the same +20ft day?
What about when Bruce lost his shorts there. Hahaha
''Government everywhere''......you said it mate, they are a bloody nightmare everywhere right now.
Sounds like those cops didn’t get their cut.
Never expect the French government to make sense 🤦♂️ we just elect them to complain
Ur govt 100% owned by corporate interest, it's not the govt that's the issue, its the corporations who own it and gut ur country for profit that's the issue. No countries deepthroat US corporate interest as hard as the aussies, Canadians, and pomms, yall be choking on that merican c#&$
😆🤣😂
14:33 haha the zoolander look
Did I miss the explanation of the reason the cops gave to kick everyone out of the water?
"Code Red" which it wasn't...
Crazy. Some of the most modest
Chopes I've ever seen
Government just wanted to flex and control the people
So what will happen if there is a swell during the Olympic Games!

Klaus Schwab sent in his gestapo
my dream wave dingo morrison told me he would take me there when Im 16 I cant wait😆
Good thing it wasn't a Code Brown Situation 😁
def changed cameras, this one a lot better
Someone posted a video 2 days ago that showed tourists getting thrown from the boat ..someone on that boat caused a problem
Coconut tip noted and filed.
what are those cops smoking?
Just gotta be looking under the water for sharks!
Kipp looks like whistlin diesel😂
Get daddy's surf gang on the cops!

whats a good board for someone who is getting into surfing?
7’6-9’
8ft foamie
Depends on the person. Can't go much wrong with an 8ft foamie though
Catch surf RNF or Log 6-8 ft
Your boat driver is a legend, he told the gendarmerie that what they were doing is disguting and it is. Why do they always need to annoy the people, same shit in France..
I always change the quality to 1440p for those sick shots
