Love the positivity and promoting taking care of your mental health. We need more people like you opening up and pushing positivity and kindness. 🤙🏾 from FL
Nice video. I got into this stuff 25 years ago (I'm 50 now). It was a different world then, mostly people thought I had problems, and I had to deal with a lot of judgement (and self-judgement). These days...all the cool people are into it haha. It's good to see.
Coming up in Nor Cal in the 70's , I can honestly say #Koa is the closest modern version of that 70's vybe -- It's what made cold water manageable in those pre-tech days of surfing when all you had for suits were 2/3m,m beavertails!. Bless-up Breddah! Nuff respect
Really appreciate your message man and how you use your platform to promote positivity and self worth. I always learn something from you and to be able to connect with you and the great people you surround yourself with through these amazing videos is such a privilege. Stay blessed man much love and Aloha 🤙
The bessssssst convo with you and Griff at the start!!! Huge Dr Joe fan and love his work so I totally honour you for the morning practice! Insane air!! Love the videos man and grateful we all get to see these. Thank you
I got the same brain trauma than you, skateboarding accident for me, same result, positive mindset is the key ! Its like (re)taking control again on my brain, et feel more focus on things than ever, thanks for this video 🙏 love your content !
To know your own self worth is not only not a selfish act, but the complete opposite in fact. To be comfortable in your own existence is the greatest power one can have. It's a great feeling and I believe helps you to be kind to all those around you too, which is also great. Peace
If you love yorself and improve yourself.... Everything and everyone around you improve and evolves ... Its vibration that spreads... As stronger that farther. We dont need to explain ... All we need is to rise the vibes . Resonance. Like one drop falling into the still water.... Aloha!
If you’re looking for a certain wave, you know exactly what spot you need to sit on to find it. At least I do. But you can’t look for every wave from one spot. You’re looking for The Wave, the one you see clearly in your mind. The same is true of all thing in life. You need to know exactly the wave you want and see it clearly to get the universe to bring it to you. But you also have to know you’re in the right spot for that envision wave. Knowing is doing the homework. Sitting there, in the right spot, is the action the homework begets. The doubt is gone when you know because you studied.
I live in a concrete jungle and I find little ways the world shows me I am riding the right wave.. if that's a light that turns green the second I get to the intersection.. or a door that's closing and I am able to just squeeze right through.. I completely understand the flow and energy when you're just connected and feelin like you're right where you should be.. love your mental attitude boys! keep it focused and positive! sending the best from Toronto!🤙🤙
Great stuff Koa. Love that you're friends with the Cola bros and you support their surfing. We can see your day to day regiment has brought your surfing to a new level. Aloha from Cali!
My best mindset is when I'm not thinking about anything, good or bad. I don't let myself overanalyze or under analyze but have the confidence in myself that my brain will come up with the answer and I just need to convey it. I'm an engineer so this is more a method for answering questions on specific, technical things about my projects.
Phenomenal feets Koa.. feed the fire, patients, taking the time to connect with the earth 🌎 and it's inhabitants. Keep enriching your soul ✨ ... too many take life for granted and judge what they don't understand
Always great to see you post Koa! Are you guys finding masala chai better than bulletproof coffee ☕ these days for energy? Curious to get my morning 🌅 routine next levellll
I'm a supply vessel captain at 59yo in the Gulf of Mexico. I have to do 3 hours, 2 mimimum, alone in my stateroom before going up to the wheelhouse. I haven't riden a board in 5 years(MISS IT!) but, I'm surfing 500ton vessels around all the time 😁 I MUST visualize waves a bit more, it seems.
If I may recommend meditating on this passage. To surf and live from a true deep place of rest and peace. "Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." (Matt 11:28-30) Cheers.
I think this might be a case of too much free time leading to overthinking. Nothing like a job on a construction site to pull your wandering mind back into the present moment. The manual tasks will help you cultivate a sense of presence.
I find your meditation exercises a good way of taking care of yourself and a good way to search for a spiritual way of living...you have a true heart and a noble purpose of maintaining yourself out of this dramatic and anxious world... but I hope you encounter the ultimate way of peace... the encounter with Jesus! This is not the peace that we can give us by our means...his peace comes with the relation with him. He gives us peace, the truth about ourselfs because we can´t!! When you experience it, is amazing and lifechanging... its not a method its what we were created for!
Incredible last wave. The stoke is real.

Amen, focus on yourselves out there, life is short and you need to start with who you are as an individual and find that peace in life 💘

That moment and realization Koa is describing at 3:10 is one of the most beautiful experiences in surfing
Thank you :)))))
Legend!

So cool you joined Jamie O'Brien, Blair Conklin and friggin' Kelly Slater for a twilight backwash season at Pipeline. Epic!
SOOOO FUN
This is not what I expected. Thank you for sharing, this is awesome. Keep up the work boys!

As a paramedic I definitely needed the pep talk at 12:10 thanks bud

When you know yourself everything is meaningless. That’s is when you enjoy nothingness.
Your aura and positive vibe you through out to the universe is inspiring and should be practiced by all including myself!! Keep sending it Koa. 🤙🏼
The positive attitude you have is contagious. Right on brother
I love the conversation :) Self care is loving yourself so you have enough love to give, otherwise, what is there to give if your empty....

If I may recommend meditating on this passage. To surf and live from a true deep place of rest and peace.
"Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." (Matt 11:28-30)
Cheers.
Yeah boys 🧠💎
How are you able to have these tracks in the vid without dmca?
hey, who was the guy you were speaking to about life? thanks
Sick double pump on that left Koa,keep the positive vibes,eat healthy,,keep a clear head,the rest will fall into place. 🤙👍
That's the plan!
Competition kills your soul - stay free ✌️ 🤙🏽 🦅 magic life only ❤
Happy days 🤙♥️🤙
what type of watch are you using??
Awareness of your own ego is probably the most powerful tool in the kit
Koa, could you share the name of the meditation´s song, please. Thnaks

Ok that last wave was sick
"portal" on your chest while illustrating flow-state perception

Self love IS NOT SELFISH - ITS THE BEST THING FOR YOURSELF AND OTHERS - SAD TO THINK THIS IS EVEN QUESTIONABLE

Just like the flight attendants say. Put on your oxygen mask first
