Guys!!! Glad your loving video!! That paddle out was classic! Kai got stuck at gums and had to do walk of shame! But made it out second try, even we have rough times here and there! Then that clean up holy shit! Literally 5 mins of beat downs! That big one i jumped on i was actually a bit worried haha my teeth are sore from hold gopro! Stoked tho! Making it to sand never felt so good! Get hyped for the next vid we flew to jaws that night!! Posting monday!
Nathan Florence bro so gnarly. Great to read and watch this. Had a similar experience getting caught inside in San Diego today the waves were maybe only 6-8 feet but kept coming and sounded like bombs when they hit. Good to see and read it’s not only me haha. Albeit your guys waves are much more powerful. One day man. One day. Good luck at jaws. Aloha.
Watching the 5 minutes of beat downs was more stressful than watching the entire movie Uncut Gems. And that's saying a lot. Well done again, Nathan, thumbs up!
I love how you left the padding out in uncut! A lot of people would edit that out but I feel like it gave such a good representation of what is it to actually paddle out at big pipe 👌🏽 Awesome videos! Can’t wait to see more! Also loved your story time video on your wipeout at teahupoo you should do more! Would love to hear one about pipe 😬 those wipeouts are gnarly!
So true..big waves are so scary...l paddled out 6.6.2001 in wollongong, giant waves, 10ft apparently, struggled for 2 hours crying out of fear...never again !!!
Legit no one else doing these types of videos. As a surfer myself I love to see the true effort that needs to be put in to surf in these conditions. Keep it up dude we love it!
This is the best content, raw, not over produced like a surf edit. Really gives you the sense of how spooky it is, the idea of your leash snapping on a day like that is so heavy, thank god for ski's huh?
Nathan -this is the first time I’ve watched one of your videos, and it’s an instant subscribe. I can’t even believe that 40 minutes went by. I was gripped the entire time. You really made me feel like I was with you. Thank you for your high level of stoke! Also, I just can’t believe the stamina you guys have. I would’ve been wasted after five minutes. Especially with your shoulder not being at 100%. Absolutely nuts. So much respect for what you do and thanks for taking me along!!!
I felt like I drown 50 times while watching this! Really awesome perspective seeing how much energy and work it is....I would suggest showing perspective from board and switching back to perspective from land to show both views of the intensity. 🙌🏾
A synched up side-by-side view would also be incredible. Nate takes those duck dives like a champ, I'm sure it's be even crazier to see how big those waves were that he snuck under
Nate these vlogs just keep hitting new levels! The surfing and editing is incredible - that barrel footage is otherworldly!! - but it's the insight you give us mere mortals and the genuine sense that you want to share the experiences that really elevates the vlogs. Just outstanding work by all involved, massive thanks to all the team.
This video is epic!!! The perfect mix of lifestyle, surfing (POV, gopro, mix of camera views) and great music paired with it to set the vibe!! I'm sure you have lots of professional help with this vlog :) I definitely need to update my "surf vlogs are on the rise" blog article I posted back in early 2018 (predicting this surf vlogger phenomenon - ha) to include yours and some others on the north shore!!! I've been to the north shore when it's been big before, but maybe it's just my new bigger TV but this was just crazy, as well as the past Jaws video of yours as well!! Great job! Keep 'em coming!!!
My hats off to all short board surfers. Back in 60’s I had a board that floated me nose to tail. I gassed at 3rd wave paddling out. Can’t imagine on board that does not float you. Nathan, you keep that humor and positive mental attitude 24/7? Ciao
That was an amazing video...I surf every day and your footage was epic, just like being there!!!! I loved the paddle out thru the sick sets...so exactly how it is!! You are the freaking man Nate......setting the bar for everyone else..
First time I have see the "other" part of surfing that most causal land lubbers have no idea of. Paddling out is the true athleticism of the sport. The hard paddling, deep breathing, and duck diving through wave after wave. The endurance an pure determinism. Getting the crap beat out of you just to get out side so that you can get a ride. Now you've earned it. You have made the grade. Now go enjoy it. ~ your neighbor
That's some epic footage Heavy situation. You only need to see footage like that to understand why Pipe is considered the most dangerous wave on the planet!
Love that you show getting worked. Most surfers are too delicate and insecure to show what it's really like. The beatings make the glory that much better. Two days ago at crappy 5-7 ft LA beach break, it took me 45 minutes to get out and ended up a mile down from where I started the paddle. One wave was all it took to make the session worth it, haha. Keep up the great vids.
The music with it is on hit , heavy , gnarly , ... Kai Lenny wiping out . You laughing your ass off at him . I love it !!! Careful though , don't get hurt .
Damn that was insane.It is definitely a sport for the fittest, especially in seas that rough. Glad you made it out with a smile on your face!! Keep up the big swell clips.
That was fabulous. A really nice change from the edited highlight type of surf vid's, which don't show just how much hard work and effort is involved just to get a wave.. My arms were aching just watching you paddle, paddle, paddle. Stay safe.
Man whatta ride. I loved that intense tribal track with those jaw dropping Drops!! Some sick ass beautiful footage. I gotta say, I’m a little glad the ocean mops the floor with you matadors at least once in awhile😜. Thanks for taking us along for the whole Shabang!
Give me war give me war, that was the sickest paddle seshh so far thanks to the Nate man dammm. Hype Unit. Uncle D Ho legend Pura Vida Nathan el Vikingo.
Again as last comment, thank you for showing the real experience of being on the North Shore for an average surfer.That was insane for me to see your board decision and checking out the waves and deciding where to surf. Just deciding to go out and the video of serious paddling, getting caught inside, and at most roughed up in the inside was insane. A real inspiration to all of us and wish you were next to us when we drop it. We appreciate all and God Speed (that means live long and continue what you do!}
No way! Not only did I get a reply from Zoard the Sword but got one from the man himself. Sweeeeeet🤙🤙.... seriously though epic Vid guys... thank you! Music was on point too!!...someone also said in the comments that they felt like they were drowning and were holding their breath in their lounge room whilst watching... I totally agree.. that’s how real your footage was... nicely done, thanks again! Can’t wait for the next drop!!
I've never surfed before but was curious and watched this video. Well done Nathan for giving us non-surfers a glimpse as to what it's like out there. Major respect for the paddling endurance you need to make it out past the big ones. Thanks!
My very first video I watched from your channel was the Friday the 13th Teahupoo and I’ve been absolutely hooked. Not just the quality of your videos but really taking us along the journey and telling us what your thoughts and feelings are before and after. And mainly, your positive energy is so infectious!! Keep it up Nate Dogg!!
Big fan of yours Nath! Thanks for leaving the trek of your paddling out on and not skipping over it . It actually shows how much effort and fitness it takes to manage in conditions like this. Your a babe too. wish I could surf as good as you! Love fromAus ❤️
I took a deep breath, just before the wave hit on 29:40, I could feel it, amazing footage! love the edition music and the POV, we need more POVs like that, uncut and real.
This video has done two things perfectly: 1. Saved the lives of people who think they are watermen 2. Showed them what watermen have to face. 3. Bonus: how many people would be laughing and enjoying that? Watermen.
It's so funny that the conversations, reactions and banter is all the same across all the surfing world. You hear the same talk with others getting caught inside on a crappy 6 foot day on the east coast as you do on a monster of a day at Pipe, it's amazing.
Sickest video I’ve seen in a while. It’s cool to see the POV of what really goes down. Not many people post the paddle outs or clean ups. Super cool to see that side of it
Thank you so much for putting the time where the surf starts ❤❤❤!!! But I still watched the whole thing 😅 I love how the littlest things can spread smiles 😊!!!
its really cool to see local footage like this for someone from the mid in australia where it doesnt get much bigger than 3 ft. these videos are so damn amazing man i cant believe it!
Seeing you keep such a calm attitude in death-defying conditions is admirable and helpful at the same time. Next time I'm out at 8ft. Rincon (not even Hawaii 8ft mind you) I'll remind myself that it's a joke compared to this, and you were laughing the whole time. Sick vid.

Dude, all of us out of shape guys that have gone thru small series of hold downs are in awe of you guys out there!.
Forever classic footage. TY!!!
I couldn't catch my breath either with that inside beatdown. I woulda been toast!! Chicken skin's!! Props to you guys charging heavy. Yeeww 🤙
Watching the 5 minutes of beat downs was more stressful than watching the entire movie Uncut Gems. And that's saying a lot. Well done again, Nathan, thumbs up!
Galadon Gaming hahahaha
Lmao uncut gems had me tearing my hair out
you surf?
Gala don I like ur vids
Of course! Grew up in Del Mar before it was so expensive to live there!
"Where you goin, son?"
"Playin, mom."
"With your life again?"
"Yes, mom."
"Don't forget to get home by dinner."
"Sure, mom."
Lmao
I love how you left the padding out in uncut! A lot of people would edit that out but I feel like it gave such a good representation of what is it to actually paddle out at big pipe 👌🏽
Awesome videos! Can’t wait to see more!
Also loved your story time video on your wipeout at teahupoo you should do more! Would love to hear one about pipe 😬 those wipeouts are gnarly!
Haven't had anxiety that bad since watching free solo
Philthy 4221 haha i made mistake of watching free solo at night, couldnt fkning sleep !!!
Such a gnarly documentary
So true..big waves are so scary...l paddled out 6.6.2001 in wollongong, giant waves, 10ft apparently, struggled for 2 hours crying out of fear...never again !!!
For some reason this guy reminds me of Honnold. Having way too much fun in situations that could be fatal if he sneezes at the wrong moment.
@@ferise1 Probs to you, my dude. Wollongong gets so gnarly during large swells.
Almost drowned watching this. Litterally was instinctually holding my breath with you.
As someone who surfs in the uk love to see more videos like this , unedited POV paddle outs . Awesome to see what it’s really like on north shore 👍
Really digging the POV on your board!!
These videos are important. It takes WORK to get even close to a wave let alone catch it. Blessed are those who have caught waves 🌊 😂
I always thought pros did it easy and I was just shit at paddling out
It a comforting to know these guys are working just as hard - no shortcuts!
lol hearing nate still cracking jokes in that crazy scenario is the funniest shit ever
If possible do a split screen on the paddle out.
So much respect for what you guys do.
MAN THAT WOULD BE AWESOME. One perspective from the beach and one pov.
@@anissez2893 that would be rad!!

Great educationaI video. I learnt that I'm not ever paddling out at pipeline.
But seriously, great content and love the style. Keep it up! Yew!
HAHAHAHA My pipeline dreams are gone now. Thanks, Nathan.
Anon Waye lmao 🙌🏼
Haha!! Gold. True dat.💙🤙🏾
Anon Waye thanks boss!

GaiGaiSwa 🤘🏼
GaiGaiSwa hell yeah!
Jamie O'Brien reference?
if a Hawaiian says its huge, then the rest of the world dont paddle out haha. Awesome footage
nothing better than copping a vicarious flogging at pipe courtesy of Nathan Florence whilst in the safety of your own house

That brought back great memories of the North Shore from my time there in the late 80's. Felt like I was out there again! Enjoy it while you can.
the caught inside pov footage was so cool to see. And also really frightening ;D those cleanup sets were huge!
Nate The vlogs have been so rad recently! I dig the bits with the homies, like skate videos.
J G right on thanks legend
Yeah this is one of the best surfing vids I've ever seen, so awesome to see how crazy and difficult it can be sometimes. Thumbs up luv your channel.

Love your job , i want part 2 !!!
Love the pov experience , thank you
merchant marine haha shoulders were feelin good!
29:35 I know this exact moment haha. The one wave that decides whether you try to paddle back out or throw in the towel
Dezrt it was at that point i knew i was done

16:44 “I think the swells arrived”
That is a fine observation!
😂😂😂
All the content on this session and swell, this perspective has taken it to the next level. 🤙
Love that you show getting worked. Most surfers are too delicate and insecure to show what it's really like. The beatings make the glory that much better. Two days ago at crappy 5-7 ft LA beach break, it took me 45 minutes to get out and ended up a mile down from where I started the paddle. One wave was all it took to make the session worth it, haha. Keep up the great vids.
Sick!!!!!! the music is so dope as well, goes perfect with the monsters your facing! what's the name of the song?
I need the song aswell!!!
it may be made by his editor.. oh well
The music with it is on hit , heavy , gnarly , ... Kai Lenny wiping out . You laughing your ass off at him . I love it !!! Careful though , don't get hurt .
That's a lot of paddling, id be dead even just a third of that, and I'm not talking that size of waves, maybe going into 2-3 feet 😂😂😂😂
Beautiful, view, gorgeous day, epic surfing but what topped everything is your real genuine smile the entire time! 👏🏄♂️🌊
Damn that was insane.It is definitely a sport for the fittest, especially in seas that rough.
Glad you made it out with a smile on your face!!
Keep up the big swell clips.
Wow, that transition at 16:40 was fantastic. Great use/choice of music. Onward to 50K subs.
Imagine this intense music playing when you’re surfing
Whats the Name of the Song tho
You're just so frckn exited, so much fun to watch you out there, loving what you're doing! And the music is sickkk
Only warriors paddle out when pipe is that big
That was fabulous. A really nice change from the edited highlight type of surf vid's, which don't show just how much hard work and effort is involved just to get a wave.. My arms were aching just watching you paddle, paddle, paddle. Stay safe.
Sick vid, never seen Pipeline like this so close and personal keep up the awesome content Nathan!
Awesome edit!!! As close as one can get to FEEL surfing pipe from the desktop in real time! almost felt dripping wet!! Thaaaaanks Nate!
This is quickly becoming my favorite channel on UA-cam. Just phenomenal
Agreed!
Man whatta ride. I loved that intense tribal track with those jaw dropping Drops!! Some sick ass beautiful footage. I gotta say, I’m a little glad the ocean mops the floor with you matadors at least once in awhile😜. Thanks for taking us along for the whole Shabang!
You should lick the GoPro lens so you don't get water droplets on it 😜
he did...
He did
He did
@@robertruge2916 what are you supposed to do once youve got in you pit it in before you go in the water right?
That was great! Seeing actual pros getting worked as well...glad you guys all made it safe....
Insane. My heart was racing and I kept finding myself holding my breath. Keep up the great work!
Best one yet!! The POV and same wave from the beach perspectives are unmatched. Keep going.
Brian Burge 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Give me war give me war, that was the sickest paddle seshh so far thanks to the Nate man dammm. Hype Unit. Uncle D Ho legend Pura Vida Nathan el Vikingo.
These are seriously the sickest videos and edits - the music is on point!

watching a pro get completely worked at Pipe!! This is informative for anyone thinking of paddling out lol
The most intelligent, honest and entertaining portrayal of surfing ive seen epic
Hope shoulder feels better! Sick vlog as always!🔥🔥🌊🌊🌊

Ur a savage Nate, lol. Laughing & having a blast, wen most are scared for their life, lol
I didn't know that my whole body was tensed watching that until it ended. Absolutely crazy!
Man I felt like I got a workout just watching your vlog!! Great stuff!
Nathan you are an absolute MAD LAD and I appreciate the FIRE gopro footage from the comfort of my bed!! Holy smokes that POV footage was insane!
Thanks for thinking out loud to the camera so much. It's really cool to hear.
Aidan Loeser helps me as well 😂
It's so funny that the conversations, reactions and banter is all the same across all the surfing world.
You hear the same talk with others getting caught inside on a crappy 6 foot day on the east coast as you do on a monster of a day at Pipe, it's amazing.
6 feet on the east coast is a blessing🤣🤣
Cardio is off the charts that was insane man
Sickest video I’ve seen in a while. It’s cool to see the POV of what really goes down. Not many people post the paddle outs or clean ups. Super cool to see that side of it
“Look down the coast. You can just see lines of alligators over there.” Epic day👌🤙
Your strength and stamina must be off the charts. Looked insane. You guys are so down to earth and chill. Damn I love surfing.
Actual surfing is at 16:55
Thank you so much for putting the time where the surf starts ❤❤❤!!! But I still watched the whole thing 😅 I love how the littlest things can spread smiles 😊!!!
just broke my wrist skiing this morning, at least Nathan put up a new vid I guess.
JiminiyCricketz Gaming get that cast wrapped around your ski pole and you’re all set brah!
Ambidextrous masturbation builds character!
its really cool to see local footage like this for someone from the mid in australia where it doesnt get much bigger than 3 ft. these videos are so damn amazing man i cant believe it!
Also here to ask what the music was. Not coming up on Shazam, but I love it.
Yes I would like to know too !
It sounds like viking music
Me too
I watched this when he first posted and even 10 months later I find myself holding my breath with every duck dive lol!!
Takes people like 10min to get out at pipe.
Takes Nate 2min
Seeing you keep such a calm attitude in death-defying conditions is admirable and helpful at the same time. Next time I'm out at 8ft. Rincon (not even Hawaii 8ft mind you) I'll remind myself that it's a joke compared to this, and you were laughing the whole time. Sick vid.
That was one of the best surf vlogs I’ve watched.. Hope you went to Jaws!!
Sea Eeohh yessir we sent it to jaws and had a hell time!
The most exciting video of surfing I have ever seen! Mahalo Nathan 🏄♂️
That was actually quite enjoyable. How 'bout a new series called "Pros Getting Pounded"? Made me feel a lot better about my surfing endeavors :)
I googled Pros getting pounded, you do not want to know what the results were
@@whoozworldizthis4221 LOL. Very good. Hadn't thought of that!
@@whoozworldizthis4221 Probably can't use Pros getting Wet and Pounded at Backdoor either huh!?
@@brianblackie9434 Haha the last thing I think of is surfing :)
The video is mental, I love it from the GoPro clip to what it’s like to get caught at pipe. Thx Nathan !!

D O G G!!!!!
CHEEEEEEEEEE!
IMSANE BRADDAH!!!
This is a Thriller !! You guys are sick!! Very nice edition... No music, only real natural sound...
18:50 footage becomes insane.
The gnarliest way to get some shade :) it is really cool to have the water level view to see how quickly the waves come.
18:50 would be an awesome framed photo!!
loving the flow of these vlogs..keep it up...one of the best to watch hands down
"It's gone to chaos!" When it gets like that it's every man for himself and it becomes a lonely experience.
Great video man really enjoy watching the paddle out and lineup
Some real sick footage..
Que video mas bueno🙌🏼🙌🏼👏🏽... asi se nota como es todo realmente y no lo facil que se ve en otros videos al tener tantos cortes de edición 🔥🔥🔥
