How's old mate on the surfboard blatantly shoulder hopping and dropping in on the bodyboarder who got a deep barrel. Come on fellas if you're gonna be the drop in police, do your job properly and enforce the law on everybody.
THE 'Surf Etiquette' is made up by local surfers so they can take all of the good waves. It's that simple! Recreational surfing is no different than playing basketball at a public park. If you know how to swim and surf, Go surf! Take off on a few waves do a few turns and have fun. Talk to each other. As a former YMCA lifegaurd - safety first. I fully believe everyone should Surf inside their skill level - Not on the edge of their skill level. Life Guards should police line-ups for safety. 100% believe that. To Local Surfers - You are not pro's, you don't own beaches, and 99% you're not indigenous. I pay taxes, I am a super nice guy, I check in with folks, I count the heads, and when it's my turn - I simply say with a huge smile and positive energy. "All right you all, Im gonna grab that next good one". Then I go. Unfortunatly, because of RUclips - local surfing crews are taught to determine am I good enough, or did the do the right respect dance to surf from 'THEIR' peak, and that I should go play on the inside with the tourist. LOL! Locals at Orange County, San Diego etc... They say things like "You need to show respect when you're in someones elses home" "You need to show respect to that guy and let him own the peak because he's been here 20 years." They watch too many Nathan Florence, or This is Living. videos. They think deadly Pipeline rules apply to the 1-4ft tame waves in California. This whole conversation is silly and doesn't matter. Around the world it's different. When I have traveled, before I paddle out I ask Indigenous folks about their beach. Which is the same eitquette I use here in the Southwest when I work with tribes. The American beaches are public - end of story. Let all recreational surf together, It's tons of fun. Oh, and no one cares how many identical 'off the lip' turns you can pull off at Malibu. LAST PIECE on ETIQUETTE - It goes both ways. Example: At Malibu, there are 3 take offs spots, however, a strong surfer can surf through all 3. THATs not cool at all. Take off on the outside get 4 turns in then pull out and let the next surf hop on that wave. Etiquette can go both way I've been out in Hawaii, and listened to Locals tell a US Marine, who just paddled out, that he wasn't welcome in the line-up with his rental board. He said "I can out-swim all of you, Im here on a weekend pass and never tried surfing hawaii" - they didnt care and sent him packing. Let me get this right, Your family had the money to buy beach front home in Hawaii 20 years ago and now you can tell a tax paying, putting their life on the line for your freedom, US citizen and Marine that they can't surf???? Becuase, you think its somehow your beach?? Just surf people.
This is exactly why I just surf where I want, when I want and however I want. Nobody has done a thing to me yet because what are they gonna do? Surf all along WA, OR and CA. I play nice until others stop trading waves - from there I just go for every single wave I want. If you drop in on my wave, I’m dropping in on yours. We’ll just play the game and that’s that. F localism.. don’t care. Attack me, my car, etc.. I’ll come for you through the legal process. 😘. Love you all…just shut up and surf. You’re nobody, you don’t own anything, nobody cares. We’re all equal 💙
You are absolutely right. We must respect the local surfers and businesses, but that does not mean that the property rights of this beach belong to them. When I worked at a surf shop, my boss and surfers shared the same concept. So if you do too much at sea, you will lose my respect as a human being. I often hear the examples he gives to others: It’s like when we go to a restaurant and have to queue up, but suddenly someone cuts in the queue and says: Because of me I have lived here for 10 years, so I can jump in line, and you have to listen to me because this is a culture that has been passed down from nowhere. I can also decide whether you can enter this restaurant!! Cultures and beliefs all over the world. It’s different, but you have to follow this culture, otherwise I won’t even let you in the public parking lot at the beach!!!] The pick-up person also had people who claimed that they had lived here for 15 or 20 years and came with them to travel. A friend intervenes. I have met many good surfers. Everyone chats on the sea, and they are very happy to share their experiences, such as which places are dangerous and which places are safe, delicious local restaurants or attractions, and remind us not to stay. They even took the time to correct my posture mistakes, just like the kind-hearted locals we met on the trip. However, some surfers become different when they go to the sea. Don't say it is because they are worried about each other's safety. You can use this kind of violent and reckless attitude. This is not the surfing culture that has evolved to civilization now. Maybe it is like this in unpopular wave spots, because most local surfers want to protect surfers who have never been here before and tell them that now It's dangerous here. Don't rush in without knowing your skills, but there's no need to use such a barbaric method. Doing so will only hurt the local reputation. Of course, unless he's intentionally blocking your car or leaving trash behind, then let's start a fight. But many open wave spots are public information, and many open beaches even have lifeguards. I'm thinking that maybe some locals will show off everywhere, just selfishly to protect their interests of being able to surf and park at any time? If they can afford it, they can buy the beach waters like nearby hotels, or go Build transfer operation, so that you can decide who can enter and who cannot, just like a restaurant.
i agree but the rule to not drop in is just common courtesy and manners- if someone has the right of way on a wave u shouldn’t take that wave from them, especially if it’s in a crowded lineup like this where the chances of getting a wave are small
"Safety first" You realize if someone is going for a carve or air they might not see the person dropping in, right? It's WAY more dangerous to continuously drop in on people than to just try and convince the lineup that wave priority is just something locals made up. A lot of "surf etiquette" has to do with safety. Your statement claiming it's something the locals made up to take waves made me bust out laughing. Yea, the guys who immediately paddel out and take every wave are lame locals but acting like dropping in on waves is no big deal shows that you need to brush up a lil on the "hidden dangers" in surfing. I've seen plenty of beginner surfers get run over because they dropped in late on someone that didn't see them.
@@anthony452 My comments come from 40 years in the line-ups in SO-Cal -- The rich coastal property owners and renters who call themselves locals BRAGG about taking all of the good waves (THEIR WAVES) and especially using hard carving Turns to run over moderate and beginning surfers to do so! YOU NEED TO SPEAK THE TRUTH. This local conversation doesnt FLY at all.
Honestly, can’t blame the kneeboarder. After living in GC for years, so many people just hog wave after wave without sharing in Goldie surf culture, the kneeboarder probably waited for ages and was like fuck this. Can’t blame the lad - at least he pulled out straight away
Yeah, people are too quick to see just a drop in when that guy might have waited for his turn for over and hour. When a comodity is limited we soon see who the pricks are.
Thats crap, that dude was a kook. Probably had to kneeboard cause someone broke his legs for doing that BS. That aussie culture you talk about is reason why Hawaiians act all brody and formed surf gangs. An experienced surfer should set better example.
@@paul-hemy thought was why is he wearing a helmet? Are we making fun of a special needs dude trying to learn how to surf here or what? I’m not sure why anyone would be at this set. Get up at 4am and surf if you don’t want to deal with this and to anyone saying that locals in Hawaii don’t have a right to tell other surfers to GTFO, you’re crazy. I grew up there & everyone has already ruined it and displaced most of the indigenous people. I truly hope there are enough of my friends left that anyone with this mentality gets their a-s beat occasionally still even though I know it’s all changed and we have a Haole police chief now. No ‘rules?’ SMH Mob serial killers had more class, respect and act right than most people nowadays.
That kneeboarder is a local legend and he rips . This bloke is one of the nicest blokes in the water . Everyone acting like snapper ain’t a shit show . Foh
Local legend or not, Id be pissed if I was coming down line on a nice wave fixing to nail section only to have some weirdo who is kneeboarding drop in like that. Local legend? Seems like a snake in the water to me, nice or not he isnt a good example of surfing.
@@rsktransport fair enough but if you have ever surfed snapper you would know just how crazy it gets , respectfully many locals would agree with me when I say he is a nice bloke that shares waves with the best of them . 🤙
In my day going back to the seventies, that guy would have received a shot board from a bottom turn across his back, and he would have paddled straight in after that.
That's my frustration with the points like Snapper through Rainbow.... It's far too easy to make sections so those that "just stand there" on waves waste far too many by just "toy soldiering" down the point. Sure I could fade them, and eat the face off the wave, but I'd still feel like a mutt.haha
How does anybody even learn now? I surfed as a kid in CA in the early 80's. It was pretty easy to find a spot. Except Malibu, I had to beat up a couple of "local" surfers there,lol. I spent last summer in Hawaii and didn't touch a board, everybody seemed so angry. Just swimming out to snorkel involved a conversation with locals a couple of times.
The reason why Hawaii is like that and you have surf gangs there is because of Aussies like that doing same stuff over there. I surf same break everyday and would never dream of acting like that. What a bunch of jerks.
I understand the guy. I stopped surfing because of all the bad energy surfers bring with them to the spots. You can't be beginner, it is not authorized by the locals. You have to watch more at the other surfers than to the f+++ incoming waves. I finally switched to kitesurf, and the community is waaaay better and friendly. Such as shame.
Haha out The Alley as a highschool grom this knob on a clubby kayak took off on a bomb and lost control in the middle of the line-up. I had to duckdive the kayak coming at me full sideways on an overhead whitewash. I thought I was dead for sure. Somehow got under it without being knocked out, copping a busted back or broken neck.... That's The Alley (or The Pass) for ya... always first with any manner of surfcraft hitting the market, always full of every craft imaginable. NFI everywhere.
The kneesurfer always surfs out of the way, when he realized the situation. Your are not alone, locals. When I go skiing or sbowboarding I would respect the beginners, like you as well😉
I'm an old school Kneeboarder and the drop in is a flog ,not in my crew ...jus' sayin'.I learnt my lesson being chased by frank latta at the Pass. Even though he was a blowin....BTW he never caught me to bash me :::LOL. He was a Golden gloves apparently ...
I see this guy all the time, one time he dropped in on me and we both pulled in and got a bit of cover. I was a bit pissed but we both came out and I kept riding the wave and he pulled off. If it’s not him doing it it’s someone else
He dropped in but, he also got off the wave for the person. Look's like a a crowded spot and being dropped in is bound to happened. It's only a crime if the person that dropped in don't get off the wave.
Fair enough But who the fuck What personality type goes Oh Kay that’s a thing I get the boogie board v stand up ,,whatever But kneelo???? It’s fricken spzzzz Ong ong ong wtf Why not just get the full goat boat
I surf every day too and would never drop in on people like that. Not a very good example if you ask me. No wander why that place is like that if that is the example set. Being local dont give the right to be a dangerous kook. Especially coming from someone who should know better. Aussies is the reason why Hawaiians act so crappy about their breaks.
California actually had this (dropping in on someone) on the ballet a few years ago to make it punishable up to life in prison without the possibility of parole but it narrowly got voted down
Bruce Gold (Google him if you need to) has lived in JBay since before most of you were born. He's close to 80, hence wearing a helmet. Before you come and start riding our waves in JBay, have some fucking respect, do your research, and get to know your elders. No one else should even have been on that wave if Bruce was paddling in.
Sirfing seems like anything else where when some people get better than others they become cocky. But im met a lot of dudes willing to give advice or tell you when its your turn, or just give up one of there many waves for a newbie
just imagine how many times my mate has been dropped in on by people who dont respect him for his amount of time in water that he has spent in his life time if you dont know who is say hello hes a champion bloke
Who it that, then? If he's good - he should be taking of DEEPER than the surfers, and earning respect by making barrels. If that guy is any good, I didn't see it in the video.
In Santa Cruz California, the helmet surfer would probably get his butt kicked. Either in the water or as he got to the car. Especially after no change at first offence.
Surfed the early and wanted to check out what the report called when I got back. Was a pretty big day actually. Anyways..the report mentioned he was back.I had read his name before on the report, finally got to get dropped in by him. @@jocko1283
The worst part is he's a knee boarder out in a crowded line up, worse than that is I bet his version of the story is he was harrassed all day by bully surfers taking his waves....There's always one guy like that out to ruin everyones elses good time & has no clue
There are also Doktors looking super cool like Tony Abbott, Sam Neil, Sam Newman, Eric Forrester and Arnold Schwarzenegger in the True Lies hotel elevator scene that are not qualified doctors. Better off taking a drive down to Byron in a Porsche Targa 911.
I don’t see anything wrong here. Everyone needs to understand. These are not your waves. It’s not yours just because you got on it all the way left share it.
I don't get how people look at that lineup and say, yeah, I'm paddling out
I thought the rule is that when you arrive and there is no wave unridden, you go to another spot. But apparently not the rule at snapper :-)
I cannot surf in crowded line ups anymore!
I think this is all some peoples surfing life has ever consited of!! they know no differant.
cos they are all ego maniacs, Who looks at a line up with 200 people in it and thinks yer ill be 201 if your not fully up your own ass.
@@WildsDreams45 easier said then done lol

So he got away unscathed....great job guys
Well if the question is what would happen in my local if this happened… I would recommend going to New Smyrna beach and getting the full experience 😂
It’s extremely busy. Deal with it.
There was a time on the GC when a drop in was a 'punishable offence'.
Can’t really call a wave with a group that big
if buds a local = semi-excusable
Shoulder hopping on a kneelo 😂
Snapper....just you....and a 1,000 other kooks !
Revenge by the tip of the sword?! Nobody on earth wants to run into this tree trunk coming down the line.
Local is angry about the crowded waves
You know Da RuleZ! - Sterling S.
🤣
Not a bad idea to get some sort of control out there
I remember in 1980 the gold coast was like that. Easy to just give up and go the tribal mentality too
Did he know the other guy got the sa.e wave
We must respect the local surfers B.S.
Bruce Gold (Google him if you need to) has lived in JBay since before most of you were born. He's close to 80, hence wearing a helmet.
Before you come and start riding our waves in JBay, have some fucking respect, do your research, and get to know your elders. No one else should even have been on that wave if Bruce was paddling in.
No wonder he wears a helmet.
Funny just saw this cripple guy gettin cranky at mal rider at Kirra for dropping in. It truly is a reflective universe.
Sirfing seems like anything else where when some people get better than others they become cocky. But im met a lot of dudes willing to give advice or tell you when its your turn, or just give up one of there many waves for a newbie
just imagine how many times my mate has been dropped in on by people who dont respect him for his amount of time in water that he has spent in his life time if you dont know who is say hello hes a champion bloke
a "mate" hey....
tell your mate he's a tosser
yeah fair point. bit of a chicken and the egg scenario too though... who screwed who first? at least in surfing people do get what's coming to them
Who it that, then? If he's good - he should be taking of DEEPER than the surfers, and earning respect by making barrels. If that guy is any good, I didn't see it in the video.
The wave belongs to nobody.
Until I saw this Video, I was against Capital Punishment!

Dats Roadblock David Antai.
The water isn't crowded enough ha
In Santa Cruz California, the helmet surfer would probably get his butt kicked. Either in the water or as he got to the car. Especially after no change at first offence.
The dreaded goat of Rhyll.
Surfies Point P.I.
Thought I was seeing things the first time as he was about 70
The second time was obvious.
Hahaha I know of this person
Surfed the early and wanted to check out what the report called when I got back. Was a pretty big day actually. Anyways..the report mentioned he was back.I had read his name before on the report, finally got to get dropped in by him.
@@jocko1283
No way, I wondered why I hadn't seen him at SP for years what a classic. Was always greedy
The worst part is he's a knee boarder out in a crowded line up, worse than that is I bet his version of the story is he was harrassed all day by bully surfers taking his waves....There's always one guy like that out to ruin everyones elses good time & has no clue
Wouldn’t surf this place in a a fit!!! Surfed it back in the early 70’s better then hardly any guys. Today the break is a F****** Joke!
You mean arrest this half-man
Gimp suit.
Arrest the bloke who missed the knee boarder!
If I lived there I would just quit surfing
Every mofo dropping in at Snapper pros are the worst
must be from melbourne
this is an example why there are to many people in the world.
Never take off in front of someone. Ever
There are also Doktors looking super cool like Tony Abbott, Sam Neil, Sam Newman, Eric Forrester and Arnold Schwarzenegger in the True Lies hotel elevator scene that are not qualified doctors. Better off taking a drive down to Byron in a Porsche Targa 911.
And the sad part is its only going to get worse and worse and then worse.
Reminds me of people driving along the entrance of a grocery store to find a front middle spot and getting mad there’s people and cars everywhere
Wonder where he parks his wheelchair 🦽
I don’t see anything wrong here. Everyone needs to understand. These are not your waves. It’s not yours just because you got on it all the way left share it.
Dont undertand the problem. New on this
I know that guy Neal Downs
NDIS plan is working well for Timmay.
That looks like the worst place to surf
Why is he on his knees? Is that a poorman surfing style?
cold blooded drop inner
That beggar beggars belief. 😂
Who else got nervous when they saw the caption😂
😂
Isn't being a "halfman" punishment enough?
