  • Officially claiming that I'm going to surf every country in the world & then actually taking the steps to do it are two very different things. Tofino, Canada has been on my radar for a number of years, if not decades, but actually getting here took a lot longer than I ever anticipated. That's my my goal is to be proactive with countries & make sure I'm checking off at least 1 or 2 new countries every month for the next few years. Thank you for all the stoke, I hope you enjoy the journey! FOR THE DREAM!! - Ben

    You scored the dream perfectly. The waves are great in the winter and the hotel prices are half price what they are in summer. So glad you were out here!

    You'd think watching pipe or jaws would be entertaining, but no, I'm excited watching BG going between some old rocks.

    ... Cool Vid - Lovin' the Tunes, nice mix of Classic guitars and modern Groove. This may be one of the shortest B.G. joints' i've seen at 12:59 !? - Short and Sweet, gotta' love it... Mr. Gravy risking injury and/or embarrassment to challenge the rocks, (and currents/tides) - to ride a wave no-one else would dream of riding. Novel, indeed. Professional. (Or at-least Semi-Pro) ha'... Making it look cool, dangerous, AND fun, huge grin on ur' Face. Traveling thousands of miles to do-so. Sounds like a Dream... Speaking of dreams', the landscapes and seascapes in the background (and foreground) are surreal and sublime. You realize very quickly that Jersey' hounds are about as visually challenged and deprived as can be. If your energetic and young (or not-so young) and have the means, - get out of Jersey while you can, anyway you can. Go surf where beauty abounds and 14-foot tides challenge the senses and Imagination. You can always come "home" and Visit - (Even though Mr. BonGiovi' claims "You Can't Go Home") - i claim B.S. - Just think, all this and a dose of JimiJam' in just under 13-minutes - Ehh, Ohh - Wherr' u' Gonna' Go' ??

    That's awesome. Great footage 👏 and I'm glad u enjoyed Tofino. Cox Bay is another great spot for surfing, as well Wolf in the Fog for the ultimate dining experience. 🤙🏄‍♂️ Swimming in those waves can feel like a washing machine lol 😆.

    Lived and worked there for a summer. Family vacations there. The place is magical. Surfing those beaches, the swell direction and wind are a huge factor in finding good waves, on any day it can be blown out and mushy at 5 beaches, but absolutely glassy and perfect if you know where to go.

    I’ve never seen the tide high enough to get through that spot. Epic inside incinerator rock sesh! Hope your hooking up with someone with a boat. Just saying. There’s more than crappy beach break out there. 🤫
    Thanks for getting me in the mood to drive across the island to surf again and thanks for getting me back out in the water again!Your the best Ben.

    You'll never see logs on the beach like that in LA or NY because the natural flow of river to beach has been bastardized. Glad I live in NZ as a surfer. Come check it out Ben. You'll love it!
    If you do first stop Gisborne or Dunedin. Wave capitals of NZ
