    Your channel just gets better and better, but the coverage of the BDSO and the Eddie are so special. You capture how special these events are to you and all the surf community of the North Shore. You get such a close up view of all the best surfers and the camaraderie is awesome. With the amazing filming and editing I can’t get enough of this. Keep up the amazing work and for all the full-on charging this winter so far. And there’s you and Nathan’s podcast!!!

      Agreed. I think over Covid I got too much over curated surf content and always dogged on Koa. But I need to eat crow bc Koa is real deal and himself. Hope to meet him one day. Probably never been to Honolii on big island though 🤙🏼

    Maybe it’s just me but this ability to not only film yourself, document your day leading up to the event and upload it in real time, and then kind of interview yourself for both pre and post heats of events provides such an insane perspective that we never got to see before. Everyone who has their own channel is doing their part to show to the world how great the surfing community is. Kinda torn between it helping grow it again to where competitors are making huge amounts of cash but also fully aware of the evils that come with too much corporate involvement..

But I have been to Hawaii 3 times and my favorite spot was North Shore which is what caught my eye, had no clue how legendary of a beach I was on and I must admit I'm dying to learn to surf now!

      Do you do water sports of any kind? Do you understand the ocean?? If not..north shore Oahu is not the place to start. Obviously you're a beginner. Waikiki is a safe place to learn...it was the queen's private surf spot. Also ...the cove in Maui is fun and safe...go to MWR for great equipment and local guy instructors. Tommy..the owner was on cover of Surfer Magazine many years ago...but they are the real deal. I love both spots...Mahalo 🤙
