Thank you for showing the local Fijians and their culture! You should show more of the culture on your channel because that gives the respect to the people!
Just freakin’ awesome in every way - the surfing the culture the Fiji Night!!! The very best vid had me just diggin’ all of it massively. So stoked for the celebration footage - can’t say enough Koa.
Skipping my usual comment of “just here to see Koa throw airs” to say I laughed pretty hard at the drinking comment at the end. I to have used the line “it would be disrespectful not to drink” for many an event that I had planned on staying sober. Keep crushing it bro, glad to see you guys scored some sick waves.
@@wcc1212 I’m 43 and have been surfing in NC my whole life. I’m not a shredder AT ALL but I LOVE surfing and have for decades. I have never been barreled and I wish I could SO bad. The surf in NC is so different even from the west coast, never mind Fiji or Pipeline, and tbh the idea of surfing pipe scares the living shit outta me. But DAMN do I wish I could. These younger surfers shred so fucking hard.
@@wcc1212 yo I’ve thought about that actually! I even thought about spending the money to go out to Hawaii and take Jamie O’Brien’s class as a way work up to the kinda waves I dream of riding. Bro I’ve even dreamed of just leaving society behind and making surfing the focus of my life lol. I’m DEF not counting out the possibility of me getting barreled in this lifetime and the fact that you were genuinely offering options to help me get barreled just makes me love surfing even more lol! Stay stoked brother.
@@LikeSomeDude I'm also in NC. Do you surf at Wrightsville by chance? Same situation as me, dreaming to get barreled 😂 I'm gonna have to wait a looong time for that.
Firing!! What a dream to surf there, a little smaller though. Btw, we saw your brother Makua in Ormond Beach last night opening for Steel Pulse and Lettice. Makua and his band killed it, great great reggae band. Shaka your Faka.!! 🤙🤙
6:30 was nuts. Sometimes,here in FL,I look at these waves and I think at least on the smaller sets,I could probably paddle into that and at least make the drop and the stall,and if nothing else get done in on the 2nd section. Then I realize I'm looking at it on my phone at work,and it looks way bigger than I could handle, and how insanely big the waves must look from the water. I reckon I would get humbled real quick. Nonetheless, Fiji 🇫🇯 is the one place I would go if i was given the chance to surf it.
Fiji night was amazing oh, they have such wonderful Vibes there, seeing everybody happy and dancing oh, you can tell everyone is closed and like family. Thank you very much for sharing your wonderful Vibes to the World Fiji... we need more Vibes like that in the states, we would be a lot better off and everybody would be a lot happier if we did...
I dont know much about cloudbreak and ive certainly never been. but from what ive seen, it can look the same at 8ft vs 20 ft (obviously just way heavier/ bigger). Is that accurate?
i was gonna go but got wind of the windsurfing contest and scrapped the mission. at least it was better than last years helicopter day. just glad we scored the day before the wind
Amazing! Def somewhere I’d love to make it one of these days! Just hafta say there culture is beautiful because they defend it and their traditions that’s the only way it lives on-unfortunately we have our own beautiful traditions and culture..history, right here in America that we aren’t defending or paying attention to and it’s being destroyed more and more everyday! It’s time to start defending and preserving our traditions, cultures and history at home or we won’t have one much longer! We must realize this before it’s to late
If u drink 5- 6 cup of kava u really start to feel relaxed despite the numbing mouth as the first shout. In new Caledonia u have bar like this open all day kava
Loved Fiji night and seeing everyone dancing and happy. Good vibes.

All the best and enjoy Koa. This is living is truly an awesome name for your channel. A guy doing what you loves 24/7. That's what life is about
One of my favourites Koa. Amazing wave, amazing people. Island culture forever!
Just freakin’ awesome in every way - the surfing the culture the Fiji Night!!! The very best vid had me just diggin’ all of it massively. So stoked for the celebration footage - can’t say enough Koa.
Loved this video! Surfing was crazy! Thank you for including the Fijian Celebration at the end! 🎉

That was a gnarly video dude. You were stoked on all those nugs. You were shooting them barrels like a Dawn Patrol Pig Dog.
Koa's like, "I'm not getting out of the water all day" after the wave at 3:00 I'd be like, best wave ever, Mic drop, I'm out!
Such an awesome video. Koa has become a star.
