I think everyone was kinda expecting an actual breakdown of how you got your sponsors, how sponsorship works for surfers, and what the sponsors provide you. Not just what stickers are on your board. It would be really interesting if we got an actual breakdown of how sponsorship works for pro surfers. It’s a pretty unknown subject for all of us weekend warriors. Hope we can hear about it soon!!
@@gammonjackson1527 wow really ? i thought it was because he charges big scary waves like Pipeline (and other big waves around the world) really really beautifully and courageously
Yo so true. It's funny because that's what I was totally expecting and then this vlog ended up being so sick I completely forgot until I just read your comment. But yeah I totally agree. Koa seems super laid back though so I don't know if he'd wanna make a video about that.
I feel that your surfing on south shore swell was some of your sharpest turns and speed control you have produced on your channel. I know you thrive on big wave surfing but the points can add up fast in competition...Stellar content keep on gliding
Speaking on sponsorship...would you be able to maybe talk a little and have cameo appearances of your crew like Eli, Nate, John John, Kiron etc...and how you got different sponsorships and chosen by different sponsors if that makes sense? Since you guys are so linked together...i cant think of one without the other
maybe a dumb question, but in situations like 12:26, do people just plow over other people's heads? i think i'd panic if I saw someone surfing right at me ...
Love the hari krishna look haha,wish cannibus was legalised aust i would rather use it than meds for anxiety . Love the vids man they help me get through my days cheers
Nice to see you surf around Hawaii and not just Pipe/Haleiwa.. I know Pipe is THEE best and your not a city surfer but the landscape looks good uptown..
The South Shore seems to be a lot more built up and touristy? Did y'all surf there all the time during the Summer growing up? I thing i remember Gerry Lopez mentioning that spot in his book.
8:23 haha yeah I never had it happen to me until like 3 years ago surfing summer time for like 4 hours and the next day at school I had full Parmesan flakes coming off my head the boys remember that one haha
yes you grasshopper! no worries cuzzin, the hair going grow back more handsome than before. you kinda look like Slater surfing goofyfoot. stay balanced cuzzin & stay HI.
That new board design is sick...you should do a white board with a ghost flame that might be kool... Brother you look really good with a shaved head. Different, but you have the kind of face that it didnt matter if you had supper long dreads or no hair at all and it would still look good...lol
How epic to see you surf the spots I've just visited 4 months ago 😍💪🏼 keep that awesome video footage up 🤙🏼 Is there any chance to get a signed quicksilver hat from you? 😍 #ThisIsLivin

true
Justin Gelsinger man that is a really good idea. I honestly didn’t even think to talk about that. I’ll put it in a upcoming episode!

Sponsorship. Sell your soul to a corporation and pretend to be mindful.

I love how koa is just casually drinking at 9:30 in the morning
Koa boy are those lams put on the bottom of your boards before glassing or are they stickers too?
maybe a dumb question, but in situations like 12:26, do people just plow over other people's heads? i think i'd panic if I saw someone surfing right at me ...
Yeah the rule is if you see someone surfing, it’s your job to get out of the way. Usually surfers with aloha will swerve around you tho🙏😁
@@c.t.6314 ahh gotcha! Thanks 😊
Katie Rose haha no prob! Us surfers have weird rules, which were probably started by a bunch of hippies lol
Funny
Koa you should do a trip to New Zealand because that would be sick
Love the hari krishna look haha,wish cannibus was legalised aust i would rather use it than meds for anxiety . Love the vids man they help me get through my days cheers

Germain, post music creds plz, choice and editing are epic🤙
Why not put the stickers on the white part of the board? Instead of over the flame where you can't see it?

The South Shore seems to be a lot more built up and touristy?
Did y'all surf there all the time during the Summer growing up?

Koa's haircut makes him faster because it cuts down on the drag and wind resistance. He owes his big bro for his fantastic haircut.
