- Was a privilege to film the memories of the Easter 2015 swell that hot all weekend in a little surf town called Whangamata, To the locals who charge the break, thanks for sharing the wave with me and all the others who managed to get the timing right to experience one of New Zealand's best waves in truly epic conditions.
I surfed the Bar for a week straight in 1981. It was the best surfing I've ever had in my life. Head high surf the whole time and the crowd got up to maybe ten people.
Thanks Nick, Whanga been a regular stop for me since 1972, still visit 4-5 times a year
Such a beautiful place and a fun wave!
This setup reminds me of Boca Barranca in Costa Rica. Looks really similar. Nice waves.
Nice to see respect on the waves. You Kiwis are gentlemen surfers.
Theres enough waves for every1 so no rush just respect 🤙
Fantastic song
Great video had some great times at Whangamata
Cool vid......and good sounds.
What an amazing wave
what a beauty man!
that looks so amazing
Love it!
EPIC footage ! Well shot and flown
thanks man
Stayed there one Christmas in the late sixties with a firend. His cousin had a Triumph 650, possible a Trophy, and he took us for rides back and forth on the beach road, trying to look proper bikie tough. Not much surf at the time, bit of boozing on the front lawn, jeery verbals between the bikers and the surfers but not big grief. Got my own Triumph a year or so later, unfortunately 300cc short of the big time but making the same sound. At a party one night a couple of bikers asked me if I had arsed off yet. I told them I didn't know what they meant. They said "You will" and I did. Nice drone video, and a great bit of music. Recently watched The Endless Summer for the first time and it seemed ripe for an update; drone footage would transform it, as would a more informed attitude to the places they visit.
fantastic video liked and subbed
Great video 😎🤙🏽
Nice video man, reminded me of my younger days ^_^
your not letting the old man in are you??
Nice colors in the water.
iv never seen it that clean before, so jealous..
So awesome.
Leachy and Frontie at the end lol makes me want to get back in shape and surf it like back in the late 80s
Awesome vid, Had so many surfs at the Whanga Bar when I was young. Time to hit Whanga again I reckon.
Martin Fisher a bit crowded now though
I was there a few weeks back now, unfortunately no waves to be had.
Thats a shame i dont surf here much i usually go to mangawhai or black swamp near whangarei and they were firing on new years eve
The song is called all my friends by gangs of youth
Amazing
Great job man! ,would luv one of those drones bit pricy for me at the mo.Well behaved crowd , good music cheers.
so dope
Got my caravan rehabed. Took me 10 years. All with dreams of coming over to Coro for surf like this.
Have been there once and it’s just amazing, so relaxed and fucking awesome waves!!
Excellent video Nick. I really like the drone perspective in vids these days. It ads a whole new perspective. You've put together a great video and I like your music choice too. All the best. P
appreciated man
I second above
Hey cuz - funny... you have caught simon surfing in this vid :)
What time of the year?
What is this song? I like it, please inform me. Thanks
from another comment, "all my friends by gangs of youth", it's a cover of LCD Soundsystem.
there is something called shazam
Augusto Barrantes or SoundHound
Singer sounds like Brandon Flowers of The Killers
sick ride at the end
Sick of that noise
is it whangamata beach?
Cool
Was there about a year ago. No waves, but the setups look awesome. Great video.
Thanks 👍
Anybody noticed any ill effects on the bar from the marina inside the harbour? It’s been a few years since it was built so if it was to happen it should have by now.
very cool vid, whats the soundtrack ?
Dics very best cuts
From ?
Beautiful place. It is so similar to Rodiles, Asturias in Spain.
but with a slightly friendlier vibe to the occasional visiting surfer
song?:P
Whangamata looking like Raglan
Jordan's Aviation and Surf I was just going to say the same thing. Looks like a typical day at the points.
Yeah but whanga has the potentially to have a long barrel when it gets some size. .
Fuck this is actually cooking
Sick vid all bout the love for this sport .." Hang on way of life I meen yea 😎
Hang loose yea
Nice waves, but damn, I hate frickin wet suites!!!!
Phillip Steiner ha ha, you won’t like surfing in NZ then
im going to pack my things and go straight to whangamata
yes surfed there lol
What a fantastic left!
What that song called?
All my friends
All nice when your sat watching...but drone are a pain when your out... I'd rather just remember the session ...
Nice. I got married here
Yeah , well behaved boys , good onya
:)
beautiful music was a bit earnest and vibeslayer but...
Uhhh. Good music ? 😆
Please guys- don;t give away your great surf spots. I saw that happen to " Cactus" and " Margaret River" in the late 70's. Now there's crowds.
not the best ever by a long shot just a pumping day
yea if you want to surf consistently big stuff go north or go west, whangamata pumps but it aint that open to ocean swells
Not one bad comment here. The hl.ark of a bloody good effort all around. I gotta get back in the water man. Like a longing, constant tugging at my emotional core. Get stick, get wet. Been too long. I know I still got it in me. There is another session left in this boy.
Watching this clean, Whanga bar action tells me it's close. I can smell it. What have I been doing the last 15 years? Surfing hasn't been a part of it so not living fully. Gotta put an end to this.
What the he'll happened to music lately?Too much heart and feeling. It's making men soft. Once a girl buys u a shirt and says it looks good on u then ur friends see u wearing it and laugh,it's time to buy a cigar and drink a pint of whisky and get in a fight.
