    Koa! I was the one that yelled and started the clapping on the beach! I yelled out "Lets go Koa!!!!" and started cheering and everyone joined in. I'm a big fan of your videos I watch them every week so it was really cool seeing you surf Pipe XXL in person!

    Pro surfers are the most underestimated athletes on the planet. The skillset required to get to this level is known only to a few.

    • @dgroves85
      @dgroves85 Год назад +14

      That’s so true! Especially this level. A lot of people have the idea of surfers being dumb and spent too much time in the sun. But to be able to do this takes incredible skill.

      Pro surfers get some recognition. There are many more that have out in the dedication and time to be nearly as good and no one knows their names

    • @jaycee571
      @jaycee571 Год назад +5

      Good call, the skillset can only be obtained through years and years of surfing. That's why you will never get an athlete from similar sports (snowboarding, skating, wakeboarding etc) crossover to surfing and be successful where as a surfer can can or could crossover to those other mentioned sports and have succes.

    I love how you see the wisdom in a guy that’s been out there for a long time. JOB is wearing the helmet, flotation device, crash suit whatever they call them-very smart on a day like that because you can totally see that the wave is over such a shallow depth over the reef by the way the white wash really explodes up it crashes.

    I don't think peeps on the beach understand how fit you have to be just to get out through 15ft of angry foam. Nothing floats in that white water, zero buoyancy until the air settles out. It's the sort of wave that will shit you out dead in a second when it's that big. Great footage, I was glued watching it.

    I was at Pipe last March, and it wasn't pumping, but the water inside moves SO MUCH you might as well be in a raging river. It's no joke how dangerous that place is for people who don't understand what they are getting themselves in to. These pros and locals who have been lived there their entire lives make it look relatively safe...but it's not lol Being able to hold your breath while being thrashed around underwater (think Olympic swimming pool being dumped on your head lol), pounded in to the reef and beach, not panicking if you've got water in your lungs etc so much respect for these guys.
