All my life I wanted to surf and I never did. That is until my son was born and as he grew my understanding of the surfing dynamics became good enough so that I can teach my young one to surf , as we were out there me pushing him and encouraging and him some times reluctant but enjoying time went by , then he got taller and good at surfing until one fine day , me almost 60 years old and him found ourselves riding the same way ., sublime almost falls short of the experience, without noticing I too was surfing waves and enjoying their wisdom , joy and freedom , long live surfing and those out there doing it 🙏🙏🙏🙏
similar story here ... was 50ish when my kid took it up and I wasn't going to be a spectator. He and I have travelled all over and surfing is front and center in my life ( at 60 , florida) and will remain so
Ben / Zeke - An absolute amazing duo! I love when you two collaborate so much, I have been a little down lately and going through it and just both of you laughing and being hyped the whole time completely made me smile! Thank you both, dudes! And thanks to the older legend he was super chill and had the "total chill / go with the flow dad" vibe. This is by far the best vlog I've seen (and I've watched all of your videos)! Great job and didn't know you could keep leveling up! Take good care.
Keep your head up mate ! We’ve all been down and out at some point in our lives , just realise it will end . It can’t last forever because nothing does kind of the beauty and beast of life . Good luck 😉
Duuude, this whole vlog/edit was just quality from start to finish. You smashed it! Stay living the dream and stay keeping this world and the people around you stoked. 🙌🙌🙌🙌🤙🍍
I lived in that town for 15 years. Took the ferry many times over that 15 years and this is only the second time I’ve see someone surf the ferry waves in the straight. First time was a SUP’er.
@@blackfishgaming7145 without “blowing up” anyone’s spot, I will at least get you a general location. At the 13:05 mark on the Vlog, look up the name of the business on the sign and input it in google maps. This business is in a ferry terminal building and these are the ferry’s that are coming in and out of the Bay in this video. You’ll be able to find some other landmarks that were in the video, when you are on google maps, like the bridges and jetty’s.
Now that was a “legendary novelty ferry wave session” of epic proportions…great timing by the boys, perfect glassy conditions showcasing two great surfing buddies having the time of their lives doing what they do best…surfing! 🤙🏼
Man, that ferry books! What a perfect wave machine! Worth the price of admission...just like the good ol' novelty days Ben...and beyond! At 22:42...even the wildlife in the water thought this looked like fun! Great team effort to get all the angles and shots...well done! Why isn't this a business???...just sayin' !!! Cheers, John
Dude after following your videos for almost 10 years, I got to say that this video is one of my favorite. So epic! The water was so glassy, the drone shots look insane!!!! So cool to see you and zeke score some ferry waves 🤙.
Grand!!! To Zeke and Ben, thanks for sharing, truly was awesome. Cheers from Ecuador, hopefully one day you can make it to our Galápagos Islands and our Pacific Coast. I used to bring Todd Holland and crew to the Islands to a break I named Tongo Reef. I was pioneer in bringing in surfers thru Carrol Hollands agency Surf Express. Ferry wave was Epic!
Agreed, nothing better than waking up early for a day of doing something you love. We used to mountain bike, snowboard, I raced motorcycles professionally so track days / practice, first thing in the morning, suns coming up, the animals are out, you have your buddies….i’ve only surfed a handful of times in Hawaii and Costa Rica but good times!
Mr gravy....what a film. Cinematic and the shot of zeke ripping in the sunrise with the bridge in the background was fucking awesome . Soundtrack was sick and suited the footage perfectly. Sir I salute you.
Thanks for more stoke. Immediately I zeroed in on Zeke's gourd & pumpkin display. Fair game in October. All I'm saying is if one of those gourds flies out of a truck window and hits a bridge support at 80mph, I'm not the one who just displayed it like candy for anyone to take. Don't hate the player, hate the game. BTW, we need to all chip in an buy a jet-drive ferry and make it a rental surf fantasy cruise deal.
It may be high but its not natural at all, its just a floating Polyurethane Foam with a person in it. Oh wait no they are shanti surfers shaka shaka good vibes and all that
Wasn’t just a novelty mission to “surf” ferry waves. This strike mission actually reaped some fun, incredibly perfect waves. I’m sure you (along with all of us), have surfed in much worse conditions, and got completely skunked. You guys scored big time. 💪💪💪💪🤙🤙🤙
Yeah mate!! From the days of purely El Slammo n Skeleton Bay clips, to surfing in all states of the US, to trekking around the world, and still finding the most memorable times to be had in any spot! Best energy mate, it's why I always come back to your Channel bud 🤘Cheers legend!
Been awhile away, this damn Cancer(lymphoma), just turned this on Ben, thanks, made my day! Going to be leaving earth soon, hope to find a 20 ft perfect performance wave next world!
That warm glowy shot looking back under the bridges is so epic! Can't believe I lived 30 minutes from there and never knew it existed. Wild. That opening one that got away was a heartbreaker. Thanks for the great video!
Ben you are legend!! Im not even a surfer and yet I find such joy in watching your videos. Although coming from a person who is Follicly challenged... you did Zeke dirty! haha
I wrote to the Navy about using their nuclear powered aircraft carriers to create waves off cities like Jacksonville, San Diego, and other navy port cities. Just run up and down the beach 1-2 miles then turn around and do it again - might as well use that energy... Couldn't hurt to have more out there spreading this idea. tldr; Then it's back where you started Here we go round again Day after day I get up and I say Come on better do it again
Ben i am a huge fan, have not bee n watching you for long, nice to see you supporting the kid at the start, is he special needs of some kind? keep doing what your dong my man, for the dream
It's nice you included the JWs. From a brother who began surfing in Santa Cruz, CA, 1964; da Big Island for 8 years, and Ecuador until my back said no more at age 52 in Peru.
That first one Ben couldn’t get out in front of must have ran over a magic sandbar bc it barreled for like a half a hour !! lol this is dream novel right here hell yea guys
Ha! The gnar ain't gonna shred itself. Got me thinking, they got the fast ferries shuttling around the San Juan Island system in the Puget Sound of PNW. Get to the more isolated islands like Orcas - could be interesting. Just need the 5 mil suit. Arrrffff!
Need more of this... Zeke and Ben! The vibes are off the chart. Now you're claiming the best ferry wave on the West Coast, bruh, that might be the best ferry wave in the US. But like all ferry waves, you have to work for it, and you guys worked for it. Prime California conditions
Unless you have a ski or boat, it’s hard to get to. It’s a long and illegal(I think) paddle to where the waves in this video break. You can’t just paddle from the nearest shore..
Above and beyond dude. A true inspiration Ben. South African here. Absolutely blown away bro. Keep it up!! For the dream👊

Such a great story man. Surfing is an amazing way to build your confidence in life. Gives you a perspective that more need to see these days.

OMG, Ben barrel dodging. I would never believe it until, I saw it! 7:15!!!
@@joegibbs2508 haha!
Why would he dodge if this is a 6 foot wave? Oh wait its a 2 foot wave
Just awesome from start to finish one of your best loved it sitting here in a dark rainy UK just lifted the spirits 100% special 👍🏻

I've only watched 40 seconds of this and I can already tell it's gonna be the best video ever. I already gave it a thumbs up. 👍
IDK but 80,000 views and only 2k likes, they must stunded.
ZEKE said it: “It is a natural high that drogs and alcohol cannot fulfill” 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Amen to That!
It's an addiction for sure... Surfing has made my life unmanageable!
@@krustysurfer don't tell anyone where the secret spot is. Where's that Bucket?

It may be high but its not natural at all, its just a floating Polyurethane Foam with a person in it. Oh wait no they are shanti surfers shaka shaka good vibes and all that
Drugs on the other hand are awesome. Fuck drogs
Some of the best cinematic footage I've seen. Bravo Mr Gravy 🍍
Light & colour 👌🌊
Wow, great job guys, cinematography off the charts and right here in my backyard - see ya in the water!
Thanks!

Pure Novelty!! One of your best videos. You need to get the Jersey boats to go that fast.🤙
9:20 Doesn't get any better than that.....life at it's finest.
That shot of the sunset, bridge ferry and wave in the foreground looked insane!!! Go nub nation!
Thanks! I was filming with my drone for that shot.
@@AzHiAzIaMOfficial Epic on so many levels!!!!!!

Thanks so much !
Incredible and great...that the wave of my dream👍👍👌👌
For me you are the best surfer Ben... always the good feeling ❤❤

9:20 till 9:30 trully amazing that shot📸💥❤️... the all vlog is great🙌💯
This is one of my favorite videos thanks
Best video I've ever seen from you Ben, love the Zeke Ben duo. That first wave Zeke got should be wave of the year 🤙
Awesome video, congrats on all your success, been watching since you started
This is hands-down, the best most beautiful video you’ve ever put out. Not exactly sure why, but this brought me to tears for some reason. 🏄🏾♂️🏄🏄♀️
Wow, absolute dream session. Amazing video.
Pure quality !! Damn this wave is sick !
@9:20 🌅🏄🏽♂️
🤯
@18:08 I don’t think I’ve ever seen a shot of someone riding a wave like this 🔥
They deliver again! Well done sirs. Truly inspiring and a joy to watch people living life.
Been awhile away, this damn Cancer(lymphoma), just turned this on Ben, thanks, made my day! Going to be leaving earth soon, hope to find a 20 ft perfect performance wave next world!
All my love.
Omg total out of character move by the novelty king to miss that right nug hahaha Zeke to the rescue !! Love this show 😮😮❤❤
Man this music makes you feel some type of way. Sick editing
This video is soooo good from cinematography to soundtrack to the wave itself. Well done!
That was pretty epic, great soundtrack, really magical
One of my favorite vids of yours... and there are many
So good. One of the best vids I've seen in a while. Red-headed step chikd included. Yew
zeke and gravy together is a vibe, you 2 should do lots more adventures together
So sick!! You keep me stoked!
That was an incredible video. Fabulousness 💥🚀
That warm glowy shot looking back under the bridges is so epic! Can't believe I lived 30 minutes from there and never knew it existed. Wild. That opening one that got away was a heartbreaker. Thanks for the great video!
@@majorscreative please tell us where!
There's Endless Summer type greatness in this clip.
Just like except the luxury Mercedes sprinter van and jet skis
The Gravey Golden Hour! Hands down. Dream dreamed.
Been watching u guys since the sock merch drop. By far my favorite episode of the legends.
Beautiful. Great surf creation, great surfing and perfect production.
Thx
Ben you are legend!! Im not even a surfer and yet I find such joy in watching your videos. Although coming from a person who is Follicly challenged... you did Zeke dirty! haha
Best Ferry sesh ever!! Siiixk!🔥👍😎 give me a shout when you come to SA🇿🇦 bucket list to film you.. for the dream!! (
You two made it happen. Total score. Almost like "Santa Ana" conditions. Some of the best California wave conditions. Music was dino. Pay the man.🍍😎👍
Thanks for sharing the vibe and putting a much needed smile on my face 🙏
Legend status --> Super glass looked like a dream. Keep up the good work!
One of your top 5 content pieces ever. Epic footage!

"Fairy waves" - that was great. 13:30
So thought you was getting barrelled Ben best vlog ever
This is sooo epic!! So cool guys! Always motivating Me ! And everyone else too!
Powerful engines from the ferry!!
Insane. Jello too 🙌
The bay slayers! Great footage as well! Hell yeah guys!👏👏

tldr;
Then it's back where you started
Here we go round again
Day after day I get up and I say
Come on better do it again
Left behind by a perfect wave Gravy and your boat dude is destroying the wave by his wake,looks epic though
Used to live there, sailing small boats and windsurfing. I never saw it this glassy but how cool to see my old neighborhood. Thanks.
Where is it?
I know it’s in Oregon and I’m pretty sure it’s the Willamette River. What part of the river is it please
@@wavehead11 This is San Pablo Bay in California and the Carquinez straight where the Sacramento River Delta meets the bay.
@ Thanks. I will surf it!
i literly hooted for you from behind my computer! FOR THE DREAM!!!

This is the fruit you grow, awesome job pineapple🍍🍍🍍
Mannnn Endlzz Fall and Winters with the Grave !!
Very Cold stuff !!
OMG, how I have never seen this wave in my backyard!? Amazing!
Loved the vibe guys!
how is there not a whole line of people out there doing this
There will be now.
Coast Guard is going to shut it down real quick if it starts happening too often unfortunately
Yeah I’d suspect it’s a quick shot and surf and as soon as wave is over ski picks you up and you split.
Don’t over stay your welcome.
Unless you have a ski or boat, it’s hard to get to. It’s a long and illegal(I think) paddle to where the waves in this video break. You can’t just paddle from the nearest shore..
So sick
Who!? Mike Jones 😂 That was fun!
