I love the feeling you get when you've punched through the inside and sit up on your board to catch your breath only to see a fresh set barreling down on you.
Gotta love the never ending paddle outs
The best ha ha
Out the back? There is no out the back.😢
@@hamishmaxa6509 Never stop paddling 😂
Yea no
Surfed most of my life...now closer to 60 and bummed not being in the water due to some injuries from a fall during a gardening accident of all things. Doing the physio, but have to be patient...plan to get back out there in due time! Live vicariously through your videos...thanks for showing the work/fitness/stamina it takes to get out there and get proper positioning for those sweet long barrels while enjoying your youth!
Speedy recovery sir
Get well soon! Big hugs!
I feel your pain. Literally. Just had double hernia surgery. I needed this video.
"Made it! - Barely stops to breathe and instantly takes off. You are a legend Nathan!
Finally, a surfing video gives us the paddle out. And most definitely, a skill set in itself for sure.
All around a very good perspective of what surfing Skeletons is like.
You don't realize how much of a long current there is. 5 or 6 loops equaling a marathon. Not for the faint hearted.
This is the best video so many times caught inside paddling out and seeing the lineup and surfers just beyond reach. For anyone who has experience this it puts you right there! Stoked you made a couple🤙
Yup. It's quite the feeling. I need a nap after watching this paddle out.
As a guy that surfs with his contacts because I am blind without them , I think it is incredible that you managed to save your one contact out there! Once I lose one it’s game over for me until I go in and get a replacement. Unreal!
100%
Didn’t even think it was possible, tried a few times but they wash out immediately. Might be worth another try I guess
@@maxpower8429 I've only ever lost two in the surf
@@maxpower8429 it’s totally fine. Come out once every few years
Thanks for taking us out with you. I enjoyed it. Been having some stressful days, and even though it's only a video and I am hundreds of miles from an ocean...this was so fine for me. I love watching the waves build out in the distance as you paddle toward them. Then as one let's you ride, it's as if it cradles you in it's hand letting you feel and see the beauty and magnificence of something way more powerful and intense than we even know. Love this! You have a great gift out there and it's amazing that you share it!
Lol did you cut the dude off at 4:50?
That was exhausting. And you made us all paddle out one last time!
I'm so glad that you have been sharing the data it will be so useful in endurance training in the future Be well my friend and Thanks for sharing as always God Bless You and Yours 👍🤙
He'll ya Nathan a 48 min video. Diggin it brother!!!! You guys are rippin. Love watching you guys. I work so much with my own hvac company I can't enjoy surfing like I did in my 20s. Surfing for local shapes. Now I'm excited to just watch you lol. Stoked psyched an all that haha.
Dang bro. Thank God you're in such good shape. A fearless beast. Minutes 22- 28 were gnarly bro. Great job. And are rewarded with a killer barrel at min 39. Whooooooooo
Yeah people have no clue how amazing shape you have to be in to endure that it's insane to watch knowing.
That looks like the funnest wave ever. My goodness i have a new bucket list. Been down to Cape Town/Hermanus twice back in 07 and 08. The jet lag is finally gone.
I’m sure I’m not the only one that has watched all the surfers from Hawaii’s vlogs for years now. To go on about your lives without a word about the tragedy in Maui says a lot about all your characters..
I believe there’s a big media blackout about it, if so, stay real at let the people know. It means more than whatever waves your catchin. Don’t forget you guys are standing on the shoulders of the locals that are now suffering.
Amazing video as always but it hits different knowing that every video that goes up you’re ignoring the ones that need you most.
Stand up if there’s corruption. You have the platform.
I say this all with love.
They all have been posting multiple gofunds me to families, and such. Maybe just not in youtube but on instagram. Also maybe they arent spreading the awareness you think they need to, but heck doing a lot better than our president
@@siIIysnake that’s true I don’t want to say they aren’t helping in any way. I know they’ve been doing a lot behind the scenes and helping raise a lot of money for the survivors.
I just think these pro surfers from Hawaii are the ones that have the biggest platform to share the reality of how the locals have been treated.
Things don’t add up.
Police closing down donation hubs.
Police blocking roads while the fires were going. If I can find this information from Australia there’s no doubt with the connections these guys have from Hawaii they haven’t heard about what’s really happening.
I understand the risk involved when going against mainstream media and it could hurt their channel but I think you’ll get a hell of a lot more respect for it.
Filmier before the fire anyway man jeez, he’s in Africa
It’s all over the news definitely not a blackout
@@blvkey yeah it’s all over mainstream media. But I’ve seen locals get their posts taken down for no reason. Mainstream want to control what comes out about it
Love watching the full paddle outs!
Nice to see the Inbetweeners not just the best sections
Thanks Nate.
I love the vibe. Long desert point, with multi take offs. I feel your pain Nate. Those paddle outs.😂
what an insanely LONG ride! Amazing.
The wave at 4:50 -- wasn't somebody already on that one??
Yeah I was thinkn damn he just snaked the hell out of that guy getting barreled. Almost looked like he dropped straight on top of him also. I’d be pissed
Guy was so deep, if Nathan didn't make it neither would have the other guy
Think it was a body boarder
Dude probably ended up behind the section… Probably. 😂
Yer thinking the same..... can't stand it when pros travels somewhere and thinks they can drop in on anyone they like
My arms get a workout from just watching your paddle outs.
I also drown a few times just watching. 😂
I sure thought after that hard paddle out past the breakers, he would have rested a bit, maybe shouted out to someone... Nope. He turned his board around and jumped in, on the next wave...killer view from inside the tunnel... swallowed up whole . Then he comes up, turns around, and paddle back out...Great spirit for the sport!
Dang dude, at 4:45 burned that boog pretty hard.
What exercises do you regular do to prevent shoulder injuries? can you make a video? thx u
There's a video he did on good exercises for paddling. Unfortunately it turned out that not a ton of exercises replicate that movement. There's a cross country skiing machine that apparently works though
Get started with rotator cuff strengthening and banded pull aparts.
That is a great perspective on how it is to paddle out there. That water is so dark! It's scary but beautiful stuff.
Thank you for this!
Nathan, you are a legend!!!
Way better video then the post from JOB on the same session. 😶🌫️
Let's go team Florence 💪
Job is so gay
Unreal , by the time you get to the paddle out , your spent 🤙🏽
Standard Nathan Florence burn at 04:35
all that way to get burned, fuck that. man,,, sad.
Amazing. One question, why do you keep looking to your watch? To controll your gopro?
Just amazing I would have drowned 4-5 times during the paddle out a wave with a lot of power the sprint before duckdiving is incredible, before anything these guys are really great athletes deffo my favorite all-round surfer!!!
Did you ever duck dive under a wave and see a shark nearby? Great video as always. I can feel your exhaustion from my couch. lol
Thats some unbelievable lung burning fitness there. Good content thanks for sharing.
That's right mate JUST drop in on someone.NICE GUY!!!!!
Every duck dive I'm half expecting to see Bruce from finding Nemo grinning at the GoPro! 😅
Nate, you should consider putting a timer and duck dive counter on the screen for the paddle outs. I.e., your first paddle out took exactly 3 minutes (1:00 - 4:00) and 7 duck dives. That way we could keep up with all your spots and have a better idea as to degree of difficulty for each.
You could even include a “current” meter/rating based on your interpretation of how much water is moving around too. Nothing like duck diving and then getting sucked back or put off balance slightly and then having to gain forward momentum again.
4:49 why did you take that wave? The dude seems to be in the barrel, am I wrong?
its the stamina haha love seeing you all nonstop score
That special feeling when you finally make it out of the inside and then a set wave drops on your head. EEEEEEEAAAAW! If you know you know.😉
Amazing footage Amazing ride unbelievable epic ride
Nate, we need to see some vid of you getting barreled while wearing your Urqel glasses! Zoard I'm counting on you to make this happen. I didn't know that you surf with contacts. I have many friends who, while kayaking, in the middle of gnarly rapids have to put their contacts back in their eyes after taking a big hit! So gnarly and much respect! Do you get the same barrel vision without your contacts? How does it affect your surfing? I'm happy for you on slab tour, it's the best and I hope your elbow heals right ❤
So sick!! Love the raw vids. What kind of watch do you use?
I asked him that in another vid.
At that time he was using a Garmin.
Not sure if he still is or not...
Trained professionals.. do not try this at home... thanks for the ride Mr. Florence
This was sick. It seemed like most white water had a “wave” at the base of it allowing most duck dives to work… always nice seeing that vs. a boiling pit every wave that passes.
This qualifies as a slab! Thanks for taking us on your ride
Thank you Nathan. Grateful.
@Nathan_Florence the Namb Barrel Vortex continues, NF ⚡ takes us back into the 7 dimension of the vortex, remanding us what the Florence Clan is about, shakas from Florida,🤙🏼😎⚡The clan of Da Thunder
I hear Florida is the new sion
@@BladesofHoney. Legendary Master 🤙🏼
loved the paddle out alongside Brett Barley!
I’m only 3 minutes in and I feel exhausted for you 😂
anyone else notice at 4:51 he snaked the shit outta that body boarder 😂
Nobdy loves paddle outs as much as Nathan:)
Now this is some content I wanna drink a nice cold glass of milk too
lol...
These boys have some right balls on them! I wouldn't try this for all the tea in China! 😂👊
Saving a contact is such a great feeling especially when its firing 🤣🤣🤣🤣
That second one was an absolute Heartbreaker I bet.
Holy shit, that wave at 6:29.
Nate at 39:00 you're pulling your board in, wondering if you bailed on that one(looked especially heavy) or did it get ripped from you? I know you try to never bail , but at what point is it worth it? its probably just an experience thing I guess? apologize for the very low intermediate question!
I think he bailed and ducked, that’s the best thing to do if it’s gonna break right on top of you
Very hard to make perfect choices all the time... Even for a guy like Nathan.
HOLLY COW!!!!! WHAT A F'ING PADDLE JUST TO GET OUT THERE. SHOOOOOOOOT, BY THE TIME I WOULD MAKE IT OUT THERE. I WOULD BE DEAD FLOATING ON THE BOARD😂😂 I NEED TO GET MY ASS BACK IN SHAPE😂😂
What's with the drop in at 4:51?
What's with that blatant drop in at 4:50?
Why do you drop in on guys at such a wave? Like at 4:50 ?
This is a horror show... I love it! The paddle out as an artform and as a form of extreme self-abuse. "We're gonna make it!" "Oh no..." Classic
That was awesome. Cheers
Wilbur is happy Nate made it out of that shark infested washing machine spin cycle alive!
So I’m assuming with contacts your never open your eyes under water? How bad is your prescription? If you lose them, could you get in safely
pretty good timing!
Great session! Take my advice and get LASIK. It was one of the best things I ever did. Wearing contacts in salt water is tortuous.
this is dope
Awesome perspectives
The wave looks so fun but I knew there had to be a price to pay 😂
39:37 is so sick bro
No one is gonna believe me but this is what a great day in florida looks like.
تبارك الله عليك الله يحفظك امين🌊💙🌊
Just a question as someone who is going to get lasik, any reason you haven? I hate contacts
Insane.
How in the heck do you train for this? My shoulders, arms, lungs would be burning!
By starting on smaller waves when your younger and keep working your way up
Priceless content. Good stuff man!!
The other day about 2 months ago paddling out at my spot I took 19-20 plus duck dives just get out no where as big as that, by the time I got out I felt every bit of my 67 yrs old what made it so bad it was low tide so no deep duck dives😅
HAMMERED!!!!
Dude get lasik already!!! Frick I almost drown Keiki my first year in Hawaii because contacts got blown out....I swear lasik was part of keeping me safe in the ocean is there a reason you're not? It's amazing and simple if you're on the fence...do it!
Bro skills on the contact
Was so sick to meet you in Nam bro
Howsit Nathan! I see you’re in Cape Town. How about arranging a meet and greet with a few of the local lads?
I have to ask. Dont you fear sharks, especially in that water? Ive spent yesrs in south africas water and it had to be the sharkiest waters ever. Australia was some what bad but SA hands down worse.
Id been keen to hear about how you think whn youre out there
Much more dangerous and common to die on the highway then in the ocean, do you not drive on a highway?
@RealChicken-zo3pq i was asking a genuine question because those waters are extremely sharky and i wanted to know how he felt about it. Of course i drive on the highway
crucial contact salvage like the pro Nate is.
wow! what a ride...
i would think the shortest flatest fastest, and bluntest board would work best, and easiest to deal with during the marathon portion...
5-9x20 quad, outline like a cross between a mini simmons and towboard...and not too light.
short flat strong secure and mobile in tight places!
A while back, Nat Geo showed elephants and lions making their way to the beaches of the Skeleton Coast. I imagine that water felt great to these animals after trekking across scorched desert. And, sharks in the deeper water? I don't know how you guys get away with your lives, not to mention how far out to sea you seem to be. Bravo!
Wow this paddle out seems crazy long!
The Ironman of surf sessions
29:47 I really felt that even out of the water
You really make me feel What i want to feel 🔥
I'm all paddled out just watching.
I think a jet ski would be helpful!🤙
This is the old raw surf 💪, no jetski assistance and no aircraft in the air
Got to be fit to surf here, lol, Great video!
if you open your eyes when duckdiving,, does the contact often come out?
What an insanely long ride @7.40
That paddle out has got to be a ball breaker. I'm sure the currents just kicking chicken when you got lines of Steamrollers coming in. Throwing a little salty foam and crazy sea creatures. Catch one of those steam rollers than have to walk back up a freaking mile. Better have brought some energy bars and a big bottle of test. RLTW 3/75
Crazy water in the strike zone
Those waves breaking on a sandbar out that far
How toasted were you feeling after this session?? Absolutely mental my dude!!!
4:50 Burned that guy pretty bad!
