This is what I love about this channel, mate doesn't just show how awesome he is, shows that everyone gets smashed from time to time
Also showing exactly how good he is! hahah
Dude gets pumped for like 20 waves, grabbed a new board and went straight out..
inspiring mindset to push through the trauma and get back on the horse literally immediately.. i was in this situation in sumatra when my leash was ripped from my ankle, that was in 2018 and havent been the same with getting caught inside or wipeouts in general since!! pathetic
@@harrisonedwardz I think that is really inspiring but also scary and dangerous for most novices. The difference is. Nate never believes he is under threat, he has been rag dolled by the most powerful waves, Escondido, chupo, the reason he goes back out is because he is chasing getting barrelled at back door or pipe, that feeling for him outweighs the potential risk of getting rejected on the way out.
Nate, every damn video you spit out keeps blowing me away at ever-new levels. You and your brothers are simply mind-boggling.
Truly
It's crazy to think about standing on the beach looking at those waves.....and going yep...I'm out there ! That's about as core as it gets .
😂
@@sids61 like...Hard-core....as in ...like ...bad ass !!!
@@sids61 I have failed 9th grade English...twice...my vernacular may not be the best example of our "language" !
Well Done Nate. This was what we were talking about with Ben Gravy's episode last year. Stuck in the washing machine zone. You did Perfect! Conserve energy and then go hard when a wave is about to hit you. Let the waves pound you in, whatever you do, don't duck them.
@1:23, such cool acceleration from a standstill.
I enjoy watching how these dudes imperfect, challenging-impossible waves like these. So many late drops, early pop-ups and amazing near faceplants! So much to learn from here.
reminds me of the Ben Gravy vid nate reviewed a year or 2 ago where something similar happened to him and he legit almost died as people were watching not realizing he was in trouble
Been there in Mexico. Thought to myself, today is the day I die. Could feel the sand under my feet just being dredge out from under me once I got shallow enough to stand.
John gets up on his waves crazy early. Another dope edit, Nathan. Thx!
Great, great stuff. I'm living through you...and it's great
Nate, You just experienced a session very similar to one I had a few weeks back in Northern, CA. Let me set the scene... my break was not Backdoor or even close and there was no "reverse" current. Well maybe my skillset could qualify as a "Reverse" current. I got stuck in the impact zone at Fort Cron and lets just say it took a while to get back out to the takeoff area. When I arrived back out my buddy Chase asked, "Where've you been I thought you left?"... well I sorta did.
I love the fact that you show us the Good, The Bad & The Ugly. Stay safe... Ohana
Referring back to your video on Ben Gravy, you did exactly what you said needed to be done to get out of that washing machine. Those waves and the music edit were hypnotic. Such trash waves but also such high skill to actually ride them. Very cool.
Always that vortex over there late winter, glad to see you get through..... The the places on guard with the Hawaiian water Patrol
Thanks for doing this fella. The ocean currents and tides are the same world wide. Knowledge is Power.
Yep agree with comments! Amzing seeing you surf and wade back into shore. It is super duper hard to do when you loose a board in 3-4ft nz but that was choppy average waves and looked like the rip was going in all directions plus swell, plus chop, plus Hawaii lol I felt that Nate
Haha. Pumped. Happy to see I’m
not the only one that has days like this. I would have given up sooner. 😂 Sucks when you get to
point where all you can do is conserve energy and hope you’re heading for the shore.
So fun to watch! ❤ Please do more of those videos where you surf this heavy steep and hollow waves where it's nearly impossible to take off! Full send! Very impressive!
Stunning! Thank you for sharing beyond outrageous.
“do they have to get permission to surf here?” 😂😂😂
You gotta have your surfers card
Really enjoy watching these videos as soon as they drop
And watching the brothers interact out of the water!!
The 3 of them seem like fine young men that were brought up in a loving family!!
I know every video is cut bet I don’t see a crack of animosity amongst them,,
Very Proud of the boys
Keep the videos coming Nate
Side note Koa Rothman another well adjusted great kid.
I’d be proud to have any of them as a son,
That said my adult chiidren after my divorce from their Mom played me like a fiddle after I paid for me oldest daughter’s wedding they all existed my life???
We were the tightest family, I worked like a slave to provide a comfortable life?? Zero Abuse All Love? And I waited an extra 10 years for them to grow up not to mess them up with a divorce! Big Uggh and a Mountain of Pain took 5 years to settle with the abandonment, and 5 grandchildren Ive never seen plus they live local,
Even if they reached out? I’d never let them back in.
Just wanted to let you all know
Why I wrote about the brothers, and my emotions poured out into my family
Mahalo Aloha All
Great video. Can seem like forever when you’re trapped like this..but it’ll happen to all of us who go into the surf at some point..good reminder to stay humble and aware.
Amazing how much story is carried by just the music, how much emotion it evokes.
Yes, to me it feels like a beautiful tribute to those who are stuck in deadly currents elsewhere i.e. in Gaza.
Much respect to the Florence brothers... ALOHA!
got caught in one of these once. super scary. thanks for sharing & making all aware
Stunning. Total satori in good or bad. The Man.
Half of those rides came after the sickest air drop take offs I might have ever seen. You guys are the real deal, no doubt.
PS
That washing machine looks brutal. Glad ya made it out.
Ha, with half a board still.
Crikey, even though I knew you were going to be okay, I was still worried for you lol
wonderful video + music, bravo champion
Wow 👀 great watermen and great editing, portrayed everything very well.
🙏 appreciate you
Kudos for that one bruddah. Always great content.
I'm not risking broken bones as well as boards for that slab.
So many drenched ones man.
Bloody expert launches though I will say that!
Well done champion!!
best sesh ever :) proud of you :) i like that first song by the way :) great choice and adds a nice vibe to the video, and its 10 times better than garter on the barber shop striped arm wearing ragtime music from the old fashioned parlor era :) this session looks not entirely too different from my session conditions today, although admittedly yours was harder core, bigger, and more walled up (i actually liked my peaky waves more i have to say :) and you got some better rides (no surprise there). that said, i was already so very happy and thankful for my little session today, especially after pain keeping me from the water, but after seeing this, i am even more happy and thankful. and while we both had somewhat noticeable rip activity (i was dragged south down the beach the entire time (even though i still managed to catch peaks throughout), and coming in was a tiny bit hectic as it was dragging me sideways and pulling me out also, it was nothing compared to yours. also, im happy and thankful i was not doing that with a broken board, especially since i am not sponsored to just get a handful of quiver replacements if something happens, and the board i am on is extra special to me. anyway, seeing these kinds of videos always makes me happy :) be good :)
Nate is the man!
Watching this after I got caught inside this morning on a 6ft day is humbling 🤣
Bro you flaked on uncle JOB! Cmon bro lol
Good fun back in the 70s when iwas apup drinking a couple of primos and bodysurfing death barrels in wiamea shorebreak fun!!
Chee🤙🏽
Nathan my good friend live in liea
I got to spend 28 days on liea point building a house with them. What a beautiful place. You guys are very lucky to be there. Aloha
These videos of you and your bros surfing this crazy sand bar are just awesome. It truly looks like your just having so much fun at the expense of everyone. RLTW 33/75
waves look super fun
That current is gnarly!
Been watching all you boys channels for a while now never seen pipe dredging like that wow
Heavy. Love it! Hey what's the first song in the video if you don't mind. Thanks for everything guys
A música da segunda queda ficou INSANA! 🔥🔥
Sketchy one. You definitely handled it the best I've seen.
Starting watching this thinking this is board breaking shit annnnnd there it is . Love ya content legend!!!!
Thanks for not using obnoxious music like some other surf edits have. Makes it that much more enjoyable to watch.
Insane free~floating drops!!!
Bro, for real now, i LOVE the style of your surfing and that you put such music behind your videos, the mystical magic gives the surfing a way nicer and more calming feel while still keeping the epicness of your sessions wich a lot of surfers miss in there videos!
Florence brothers, buenas noches mis amigos!🤙🏄🌅
💩💩💩
I have a feeling Nate actually enjoyed the challenge of getting back in. Free training sesh!!
You’re my favorite youtuber
Love yoh boogie
If any of those spectators on the beach got caught in there they would've drowned!
Even doing a chain? Even when there are bad rips and potential drowning victims trying to fight to get into shore people here get in chain formation just to get to the person. That wouldn’t have worked there even when he was getting closer? Personally if it was me I would have been pissed with all the onlookers and not even attempting to try to save someone? I thought that was kind of heartless.
@@anthonylove821 You're totally correct in thinking people should be more aware of what's going on around them. But as to attempting any help other than repeated calls to 911 for North Shore lifeguards? Sorry, unless a real waterman was in that group (which I doubt, cause he would have been a little away from them, eyes on the swimmer in distress, not looking away, concentrating and getting ready for a rescue, telling people to get ready to call 911, etc.) but any of them even attempting a chain would've got rolled. As many people who tried to help (in that manner) would be how many rescues a professional would've had to do. Those beatings are way worse than they look and someone without heavy water experience couldn't take the hits or the leg-sweep underneath. I'm not saying that's a bad technique elsewhere, but in this particular situation? Nope. Ben Gravy got pressed really hard here and he's ventured into heavy water, he's more than got his toes in with those big Jersey days and traveling so much. (I did surf rescue in N. Ca. for years, plus have rescued I don't know how many off the clock. Better to call 911 if you're not certain of your abilities unless it's a total non-swimmer/kid that slipped in. Just know you're risking your own life also in that situation as well as complicating any further rescue. But every situation is different. So many times we had to rescue 2, 3, 4 people when it would've been just one. Especially dealing with capsized sailboats offshore. Sorry, I hope this all makes sense. It's late, but you're exactly the kind of person who needs to know these things, cause other people don't even ask the right questions, like you did. Here's Nate talking about Ben Gravy's close call and breaking down the video, same exact spot. ua-cam.com/video/Z8HQBA4dh_8/v-deo.htmlsi=vcFrgGyOVejtPBMM&t=926
Bodysurfing for the win!
Gnarly predicaments, just another day of surfing for Nate.
I wanna here JJF experience in that backdoor rip.. this was awesome real waterman sht going down🤙🏾🤙🏾
Crazy waves
yea a cpl times for me, 70's Billy Mitchell airport, Hatteras,
Wow it was soooooo dumpy. Can't believe you guys made so many of those drops. Not surprised you broke a board though.
WOW, thats back door? Insane
I remember the first time I got stuck in one of these washing machine type situations here in West Oz. It's not fun.
Great vid - btw what is the song that starts (we're getting down we're getting low)?
Rez fun 🤩
good vid music nice
Thank you. It's as if I were there.
Do you take a torch with you out there?
Man that looked tough!!
at OB, SF we used to call the sticky inbetween zone Lil' Elmers...HaHA. Stuck like glue. Gotta love it to earn it. Gotta earn it to get it. Natures hazing ritual. But Backdoor is just, well, not normal in every way.
Such a beautiful video as always! Can anyone tell me the name of the last song?
Haha looks hectic but epic. My son was actually just asking what a Riptide is and if they are in swimming pools too. I told him no, they are only in the ocean.🏊♂️
The current shown here is a lot worse than a rip.
@Dobertathon Perhaps but not worse than an undertow ;p At least it's close to shore. But that is not backdoor proper.
edit to add: you must not be familiar with the huge riptides in Indo or Alaska with the massive tide changes. It's a good example, even if it is close to shore and shallow.
great slab
That Gravy kid almost Drowned there
Brutal!
Proof it doesn’t need to be 15 feet to drown. If you lose your board in the wrong place, you better be a hell of a swimmer. I thought about that Ben Gravy video at Rockys when I saw this.
Talk about epic rip currents!
Music fits the video
I haven't been surfing in a long time and pretty sure I would be terrified in that situation and probably need a rescue. Maybe if I kept a half of the board as flotation id make it back by myself.
My shoulders are burning.
ty for the info. Good to know I’ll def look at that link…whatever happened to Ben by the way. He went way off the radar. Did he get seriously hurt? He’s from my neck of the woods
Ivan may have got this one...damn...you guys worked hard though....
Zord being a lifeguard and looking at you like 📹🫡
Never seen it slab that hard fkn brutal
@6:04 “do they have to get permission to surf here?” Replies “no….” So nicely like they aren’t the anomalies that won’t feel like they are on deaths doorstep the entire time out there 😂 that’s some heavy, steep drops you guys are pulling off there! 🤙 So sick man!!! Born and raised in AZ I think the Newport jetties are fast and steep 😂 this would literally be my last surf experience on earth haha ❤️✝️
I remember Ben Gravy getting stuck there too. Scary stuff.
Cardio day!!
You know the current is ripping when the waves coming in almost stop and stay stationary
What can you do here, so side ways until your out of the current and body surf in?
Insane. Just proving square waves can be caught & ridden.
When I was still a kook this happened to me I snapped my board surfing about 3 to 4 ft (Hawaiian;) Ho’okipa - I got stuck in the rip on a broken board, and it was almost impossible. I was staying calm, but eventually the lifeguards did come get me And I did the walk of shame.. But lesson learned And I’m thankful for those lifeguards who saved me that day.
I'm glad you survived!!! Maybe it's time to wear a inflatable life vest?
Don't blame you ducking Jamie's back wash session after coping a tap like that
Endurance training session
So Nate....what was your strategy? Did you swim parallel, wait for breaks, go slow, not panic (obviously), not "fight" or all of the above?
Magic 🪄 🙏 🤙
It was the beard acting like a sea anchor lol.
What GoPro mouth piece do you use?
new fear unlocked.
lol, I learned the hard way when I first moved to OTW in 1976.
I would love to hear those stories🤙🏽
All I can tell you Alika is the North Shore was the Wild West back then both in and out of the water. Amazing place in time....
WASHING MACHINE ON HEAVY DUTY CYCLE.. WASH , RINSE , SPIN, REPEAT…..🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
I’m surprised you guys didn’t opt for Lani’s or something.
slabby mutant double ups get my two thumbs up
I think after watching this groms will be practicing push the board down then pop up and stand
Please do a video explaining how to do 8:32 for us mortals
