Damn Nate, you charge so hard man. You have no fear whatsoever. No wonder you won Surfer of the year. Fav surf vlog hands down. Thank you man for risking it all. We salute you!!!
I'm 100% convinced Nate is a real Super Hero! So incredible how you can show up to a new spot that you've never surfed in your life with all the rocky coastlines and cliffs and currents etc. And be on BORROWED equipment and go out there in maxing life threatening conditions and figure the boards out on the spot! Your Supreme Nutball!! So much respect to you and the hard-core Zoard dynamic duo!!! I bet zoard is tripping on you about to get into some hairy situations on the regular.
Nate you mad dog!! This has to be one of the best sessions on the slab tour! Hats off to you guys because damn that wave had teeth and a hungry appetite!
From a surfer with over 40 years water time... I've never seen anyone make the subtle adjustments in the barrel you're making mate. The high lines you find out of some caves are incredible. Stoked 🍻
This is by far the best surf content out there! This wave looks so heavy! The boys charged this nasty looking slab for the first time without hesitations on borrowed, potato chip looking boards. This has to be up there for best vid of the slab tour since the wave of a lifetime vid back in May.
Portugal and Azores have Lots of World Class Waves! Super Important to Protect them!! Thanks Nate for interviewing the Save Azores Waves Guy to bring Attention to this Very important Topic!!
Not just nutrient dense but most important BIOAVAILABLE!! Meaning the body can use it. All vegetable sources of protein, vitamins and minerals are less than 50% bioavailable (available to be used by the body) and that’s being very gracious. Ruminant meat and eggs is the breakfast of champions …especially for those fat adapted and eating fat for fuel instead of sugar/carbs for fuel in all of its forms. The question is do you have the patience to get though the adaptions phase. Culture has hijacked the most beneficial way of eating for us. It’s not an accident. You guys are phenomenal athletes. Thank you for sharing the adventures!! 🙏🏽
Yeah you’re kinda right but chill out. Our planet can’t support 8 billion carnivores. Also, don’t take too much nutritional advice from a guy who slurps down mysterious energy drinks before surfing
Surfer of the year. You gottaB over the moon finally all the glory goes to brother Nathan. Yeewwwww!!!. So nice to see your hard work give you what you deserve. Next up is the Silent Assassin Ivan.
My favorite vlog the weird thing is the shots of the boys in their yard or at the houses either at home or traveling totally makes your vlogs the best. Of course the surfing but love seeing the life parts just as much.
hands down best surfing channel on youtube. normally that "autonomy is an illusion" song wouldn't have been my first pick, but with the video and how it is edited... absolutely captivating, (and now I'm walking around the house saying...autonomy is an illusion badada) Well done to all involved behind the scenes but of course nate ultimately for charging like he does. utmost respect
I remember Kiron ripping at the menehune event years ago at cranking Haleiwa w Bonga doing water patrol. You guys have come a long way. Making the n shore community proud. Aloha and stay safe out there
That inside is so gnarly. Those rocks look brutal. It’s such a pleasure to see someone so skilled and talented handle that whole session. Your content is epic bro. So casual, even though that was such a crazy session.
Wow, looked good when you pulled up, then it just made all those changes. Crazy, but, you got that stand up ride. On borrowed boards, thats impressive. Plenty of sketch factor, and I know the bottom has got to be gnarly. I sure enjoyed that sesh from easy chair! Stay safe(sh).
Wow some sick ones, the one that lipped you would have been another wave of the year 😂😂. Dude you need to make a video on how you duck dove those behemoths. Another legendary video, best UA-cam channel of all time🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I love the Azores. Everything about that place is awesome. Fishing surfing food everything. I wanna go back in the next couple years. I was there in the early 00s
Great stuff. I learn a lot seeing how you guys adjust to conditions. From the paddle out, getting caught inside and just walking reefs to get back. When I got to Hawaii last year, I did not know much about navigating reefs, I learned a lot quickly and used what I saw you guys do! Stay safe.
I’m moving to an island with perfect waves. I will keep a perfect quiver of extra boards. You never know when Nathan might show up. That wave. Is gnar!
That go pro footage must have been something crazy to watch but hopefully someone will find it and send it back to you. Keep charging man your videos are incredible to watch. Cheers
I saw some footage of this day from a local guy. Gnarlier than it looks. Always out there killing it Nate. Love watching footage at all the slabs you seem to find. Keep it up. It’s so fresh!!!
F*#k me... Nate!, you took that chandelier right on the dome man! Bobbed up ready for the next one like it was nothing! Like a boss mate! Another banger of a sesh and a video guys! This sesh had me hearing the Chase & Status song Baddadan playing while you were shredding... ha! Yyyyyeeeewwwww 🤙
Wow looked like that wave wanted to eat you , im stoked for the inspiration thx , glad you concord another SLAB , THAT WAVE LOOKS HEAVY keep charging !!!
We would stop at the Azores on the way to deployment. It was so beautiful and we were never allowed to go down to the water. Beautiful but Scary looking all the way from the top of the hill..
Having seen most of your vids, i have to say this is some of Zoards finest work. That bird footage was especially riveting. So many questions. Did the birdy survive? Who's cow was that getting herded back. Awesome vid guys. N.Florence, insane charging as always. Cheers!
Damn Nate, you charge so hard man. You have no fear whatsoever. No wonder you won Surfer of the year. Fav surf vlog hands down. Thank you man for risking it all. We salute you!!!
Did the bird survive?
Yeah that thing got tossed!!! Crazy!!!
Depends if the feathers got to saturated, if it goes beyond a certain point it’s toast.
Birds aren’t real! That was a semisubmersible on a mission to retrieve Nate’s GoPro for governmental slab-spy purposes 🤫
Zoard rescued it and gave it cpr ….. see more
The bird survived

Your constant IV drip of slab lord content is the cure to the hangover that is life.
Couldn’t agree more friend. And I don’t even surf
You got that right bro.
Andre is a real one💯 love when we get to see the passion of the locals
Nate you mad dog!! This has to be one of the best sessions on the slab tour! Hats off to you guys because damn that wave had teeth and a hungry appetite!
Great spot! Feel bad for the bird caught on the inside. Insane drop.
That bird got it good!RIP

Thanks Florence for leaving his warm island taking these cold dangerous trips. Man you can see how hard he tries!
Cold, mate you should try England😂
That's the sort of place we head to be warm
Water and air are both 70° there it’s a sub tropical island
@@TrueWren 😅
The surf community, protecting waves and loaning boards! That wood fish... I'm drooling! Cheers.
Thanks
💯 my favourite surfer, Nathan Florence! I’m surfing a 4ft wave thinking I’m going to die, meanwhile this guy..

The Best! The Slab Tour makes the WWS looks like childs play.

Hands up for glory. You earned it with them beat downs. You da man.

This is what we like pure surfing. Gnarly waves.
Vicious track perfectly timed with bomb drops. Your AV person needs a raise.
Outstanding show guys thanks for the show. My great grandfathers homeland..

Agreed, as in stand up in a barrel corrected! What an amzing session.
Epic session, I love these videos! Would love to see more tid bits of the local food and stuff too! :)
This is absolutely sick. The hand up barrel at 9:45 was pure style.
Great stuff. I learn a lot seeing how you guys adjust to conditions. From the paddle out, getting caught inside and just walking reefs to get back. When I got to Hawaii last year, I did not know much about navigating reefs, I learned a lot quickly and used what I saw you guys do! Stay safe.
Love that Zoard shows you taking one to the mullet!!!

Such great energy Nathan, even made me feel good, thanks bro bro!
Even the cows were hyped.
There you Go! Azores, Portugal ✌
One of the best on the slab tour I’ve seen. Wow.
This is the type of episode you watch multiple times and rewind many more times. Crazy how you guys risk so much
Epic break 🤩
Excellent journey and coverage! Lovely freight train righthander - with plenty of juiciness on tap. Sorry you lost your go-pro.
So sick!! Great explanation about what happen when you catch a series lip and recover under water. Good job surviving.
To be consistent on such a variety of slabs is substantial.
