The video is LIT 🔥!! It’s so fun to watch - BEST VLOG EVER 🙌🙌
THANK YOU!!!
You had a killer season with new sponsors, epic waves, and the videos keep getting better and better. Looks like you’re in a real good head space. Real happy for you Koa. 🙏
Heck yeah thanks for tuning in bro!!!
Call it the Steak Knife. Boom, done deal.
Thinkin same same
I love how at 4:39 there is just a turtle cruising through there. Great video as always, Koa!
WOW!!!! Koa it's INSANE how high quality and NEXT LEVLE all your videos are lately, each one is like a mini surf-film in vlog style it's so CRAZY..... keep it up
Wow thanks!!! YUS the team is in place it’s been so fun!!
Brilliant Koa, best vid I've seen for ages. The music muffled when your underwater gives it a new dimension.
Great cinematography, editing, music, that video was fantastic! Best surf clip I have seen in a while. Thanks!
Video is so good! Subtle details of just making the music sound underwater when those shots are playing and others what make it so elite. Plus the mental surfing.
holy crap this video was nuts, honestly such an underrated surfer and its so cool how you really do focus on the energy that the earth gives you which HAS to be a part of why you just look so natural doing the things you do
What an incredible edit. Sick!
Seeing koa's videos it's like seeing movies, love the energy and the creativity, amazing koa!
Glasser and sander goin to love u Koa 😅 keep pushing the limits 🙌
Great video and sessions !
Blessings and aloha charger 🤙
You’re right. I’d be just dreading having to sand those rails and hoping they come out nice.
Wow! This is your best vlog to date!! Epic Koa 🏄🏼♂️🤙🏼🌊
My snowboard is a Lib Tech with magna-traction. I have thought about this idea for surfboard rails for awhile now. I don't shape yet, so I haven't been able to apply my idea. I'm glad you did it. I think the wavy rail is a good idea! Enjoy your season
Yeah I was gonna say, Lib Tech has done that with snowboards for like 20 years. Cool to see the same idea applied here. 👍
Yea, Koa literally has videos of him riding an Orca. He wasn’t just sitting at dinner eating a steak thinking “oh wow I gotta an idea”. I’d have to think Mervin has tried to make this work on their surfboards at some point. Either way, we all know where he came up with this idea…..
Mervin makes carbon fiber surfboards. No magna-traction on the surfboards
Magnatraction was the first thing that came to mind. It was a game changer for snowboarding.
@@JG-pm9tyI thought it was BS when it first came out, but the first time I rode a Lib with magnetraction, I was blown away. It’s a complete game changer for me riding the majority of my season in Michigan.
Best edits in the Business combined with the best Vibe!! Nice Work Koa Fam!! :)
you should call it the Riddler!! The green color & question mark go along with that vibe; also because of the mystery of how it would ride!
You absolutely murdered that session!!!!
Much respect for chargers like Koa & crew gath-ing up & preventing future dome spillages
Biomimetics and the Application of the Leading-Edge Tubercles of the Humpback Whale Flipper
Man you’re on another level!!! Love to see it brother
Another sick edit. Sick barrels, the acting, whoever does your editing, right back to the Hurley days, drone shots, POV, just awesome. Was that a turtle after that barrel when you hit the cutty and fell? Keep doing what you’re doing man, the humbleness, honesty really come thru in your clips. 🤙👍🙏
Bombs💣💣💣
Backdoor wave was sick! scary pipe drops!
Thanks again for the excellent vlog!
Lib Tech did this on their snowboards and they do carve better, handle ice and chop way better. I am not surprised it works on surf boards too. Super sick video!
Wow wicked! I fell in love with Ryan Burch's pickefork double double asymmetrical board ....... MUST try especially Album's asymmetrical twin fins on ANY twin!
Koa Smith remember you as a kid and now an intelligent unique human ....... congratulations on the content and ripper status all these years representing North Shore!
Great Vid Koa!
Great to watch you experiment with the album asymms and now the serrated edge rail... many pros are paranoid about trying something new but I think it only helps your style to try new boards and new feelings! nothing ventured, nothing gained! 🙏💫👽
5:11 I was NOT expecting him to try and stick the landing on that OBSURD air 🤣
Great to see Eimeo is back out there 🎉
Very interesting Upload! That Green board with the ‘Dimple Edge Rails’ Goes! 🔥👍🤙
Love the videos, and such a cool idea with the board and awesome to know the story of how you came up with the idea!
Def should call it "The Blade" 😊
Really great surf footage
All time to the planets,,,,incredible session.
What a weapon! You gotta call that "EL SERRATO"
Very nice vid. Great shots, well edited and decent music. Good flow.
Royalty free music is a tough game 😂😂😂🤙🏽
How to explain how much I admire you, toda una inspiración! gracias, saludos desde 🇲🇽
sick new board and great vibes!
Back in 1980 Tom Carroll experimented with a board that had various concaves on the underside of the board. The principle being that if not all of the board was in contact with the surface of the wave it should go faster or slower, depending on where you place your weight. It’s always great to see experimentation happening, rather than just accepting the status quo. Tom used the board at the Gunston 500, which he didn’t win, but he was, nevertheless, confident enough to test it on the World Tour (such as it was in them days). Best of luck with future experiments, Koa. Great content!
This vid is a work of art. Thos waves you got !!! holy shit man they are soo epic!
Thank you!!!
Steak knife went crazy! Another amazing video Koa!
Livin' the goofy footers dream mate 🤙
The lava board. Thanx for sharing great.
nice work been killing lately 💪
Thank you!
Great to see that duck dive and how close the reef actually is 😮
Great video. I’m so psyched to finally be moving to a place where I can surf tropical barrels after being land locked in Portland Oregon freezing my nuts off for 10 years. Your vid’s inspired me to finally make it happen. Thanks Koa for all the stoke. Once I get set up there I wanna invite you out! 🤙
Sik video love love it free surf natural style
Koa that session at pipe was special she was giving you good vibes for your sand ritual
Smashing those big ones that backdoor right thought you were done for...But ya made it look easy.😊
Good energy 🌞
Your skill set is so next level, from super steep drops to killing technical smaller waves is crazy...I'm from Florida so small waves is what we have to deal with, but 90% of people out there have no idea the balls and magnitude there is to ride pipeline. I wouldn't even think about paddling out at pipe above over head...
How about Laird-Koa Cuts? Loved that Kohala Boil up! And we are each a portal ... get ready as this is the year. Fun sharings, thank you ... from Kona
That barrel to Air combo was sick! And the Wave Blade would be a good name.
That Air was Sick!! ideas for the board…The Green Bean or the Lime Slice.
I think the board should be called the riddler? That air was Christian Fletcher like , wow what a punt! Amazing session
Awesome video and surfing, Koa! Your board reminds me of my double-winger Rainbow from 1983 back in Cocoa Beach shaped by Doug Wright. He stopped shaping boards and went into Aerospace or racing boats, or something next level, but his boards are epic. I still have my little Rainbow, but I sold the 6'4," unfortunately.
You airs are looking so good
2:41 kai rlly said “poes”😂😂😂.Love from South africa bro🙌
I'd call it the wave blade🔥that board looks amazing!
Wow great board and idea..the name Cascavel like the cobra cascavel due to the S shapes ..great video congratulatios
Stunning board. Great invention. Makes sense. Name suggestion: 'ripple' or 'the ripple'.
Idk if you got a new editor or what but this gotta be one of the sickest RUclips edits I’ve ever seen
Best watch !!! ❤️🔥🙌🏽
Thanks for watching!!
Epic! Greetings from Namibia 🇳🇦
Sweet Vid
hey koa, you had some great waves out there. i am the son of lewis deans. he works with wes. you gave him a autograph for me and i wanted to say thank you.
the new earth project is a good thing that he is doing for the world and the water!
🙌Yeah Koa!
You seem really dialed into these new boards. Not sure if it is the serrated edge per se or just the overall shapes, but fantastic surfing and videography! Really fun to watch!
Dude thanks for explaining about the boil and showing the cave. I’ve noticed it in the water for years and looked for it and googled it and actually agonized over WTF IS THAT THING and it has disturbed my peace which sometimes happens when I can’t figure things out so thank you so much from the bottom of my heart and keep being who you are.
Hahah yesssss it’s apart of pipelines personality 🙇🏼♂️🙇🏼♂️🙇🏼♂️
Fresh Slice !
Happy days 🤙😀
Super rad! Travis rice has also done the serrated edges with lib tech snowboards!!!
Best vlogs ever 🎉
Thanks for the support!
The Pickle
SoooSmart KO HelmetWear👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼StaySafe✨⚡💫PipeIsJust🎉🎉🎉🥰🥰🥰
Got to call that board the Steak Knife 💯
Clearly it has to be called
Steak knife !
Epic session!
Powerful surfing like Andy.
Damn that’s the best compliment ever!
OMGEE KO🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴Amazing Gnnnarly👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
LibTech does the serrated edge on their snowboards, it really helps alot in the snow.. Looks like the board did well with it in the water, the edge was cutting deep
Keep the good vibes coming! Lads be Living/ keeping it Real> Aloha!...
Serrated board is sick
Being early to a koa video is just a gift
YUS thank you!!
The "Zippa' " ! Nuff said !
I like weird boards. Keep experimenting.
Koa I think Johnny Alford did the serrated edge on some skim boards at one point for Sandy Beach Designs. I think the name The Serated Edge is a great name. 👍
The miracle blade 😅
I feel you should name your new board the Rippler.
Love your work and vib bro.
Steak Knife is awesome name for the board, bcause of the inspiration 🤟🤟🤟
Super session, how was that turtle 🐢 swimming so cool
So sick!!!
4:39 that turtle was vibin
yeah you Koa. board looks like its working good & the steak knife is the name. your idea, your name.
The bud leaf 😂
akoatraction! 👍😁
LIb Tech Industries started making snowboards with edges like this a few years ago. They called it "posi-traction."
The last 5 mins of this one was hella sickkkk 🤟🏻 #nathanisanalien😂 👽👾 hahaha
Shamrock! Its good luck! 4 fins four leaves and green
Sick. It has to be called, the dill pickle. The color, the serrations, just like a spicy pickle yeowwww
Reminds me of whale fins and what they are trying with boat props 😅😮😂😊 should work!
Steak knife is a perfect name
Green Lantern. 🤙🏾
The Rip Saw
