Love the content. Loved you and Nate on Bert's podcast. I'd love to hear more about the technical side of swell reading or at least how you read it. Low tide/high tide, swell direction, wind speed and what conditions make each break optimal. I'd also love to see some footage/audio from the lineups and how you choose certain waves, who has priority and what not. A video inside the lineup during that zoo at Malibu would've been interesting. Keep the content pumpin'! YEEEEWWWWW!
I'm old (62) and in the UK. Used to surf once or twice a year and spent a couple of whole summers May - Oct in 86 and 87. So I watch a lot of these vids. This bloke's good, doesn't seem to take himself too seriously and he's not annoying and seems quite modest.
I love to see a little stuff on land while you're around the surf spot in your yard, like you do in the intros and outros. Super cool to see a tiny glimpse into the living side.. let's me fantasize about having a spot on the beach ya know. The surfing is amazing obviously as well. The most amazing thing would be underwater shots of the surf spots showing the reef or whatever makes the huge waves when its NOT firing. Blows my mind and no one shows that. I'm always pausing trying to see it
Cool of you to recognize Parker's backhand, makes sense as he was raised on Rincon and the right points around town. I've been a big fan of Bobby in and out of the water the past two decades and I'm absolutely sure Parker found inspiration in Bobby's backhand as a goofy foot grom.
koa it would be funny to see some behind the scene stuff besides surfing. funny moments with friends, trying other sports maybe or just funny videos of friends getting lit. [love the content and at the end of the day do what you enjoy to film]
Koa, remember when you were a kid, everyone surfed good. Now most lineups are filled with kooks. I think it is because over the last ten years new surfers have had RUclips and see vids of you and many others ripping and they go out and buy short boards as their first surfboards. Then they struggle from day one and after 10 years they still butt squat and stink bug. If you went out on a small day on a 9.0 and explained how important it is to start surfing on a longboard first until they have it mastered, then move to a smaller board, there is a slight chance beginners to our sport would listen and maybe a few years from now things would change and we would have a whole lot less butt squatting and stink bugging in our lineups. We all learned to surf our first waves on longboards, beginners need to hear that and learn that from you and Nathan and others. Just saying. Keep up the great work you are doing. A surfer in her 58th year in the water and my daily sled is a 6.3 JS. Thanks for listening.
I really like the shots where you here the raw sound of waves without any music while watching great surfing . Do some more of these 🙂 Thanks for explanining about waves, super interesting!
Booked my Hawaii Trip next June all the long way from Germany! Cant wait too see your beautiful Landscapes,Waves and Surfspots from your Videos...and definitely have to try Pupukea Grill and Sunrise Shack! Greetings from cold Germany to Hawaii and Aloha, Martin
Yes Koa, it is the small waves that get you. I surf Honolua in the 70ʻs point break till around the cliff No big wave was unridden. It was a small wave just riding in and my board hit my nose. Yes, my girlfriend lifeguard also gave me an ice pack. Thank you Koa.
My grandfather was a captain of large carrier ships. He went all over the world at sea. He’d tell me about rogue waves, whirlpools, water spouts…. We’d be walking downtown & he’d point to a 10 story building & try to give me an idea of how big waves could get at sea. He’d taught me that waves are 1/2 as tall as they are deep. It blew my mind!
I miss surfing in the tropical water like in hawaii 😢, btw nice videooo!!! What funny wavess🤩 and some dangerous wavess. I really like your board koa 😂 thanks for the explanations
having been involved in surfing for 50 odd years l suppose lve seen plenty of great and ordinary surfing..You surf really strong & have plenty of balls..your not overly radical but in peace with the wave..great to watch. especially tube riding. enjoy watching you..Maybe on your backhand you might want to move your hips more when coming off the lip..a bit more body movement coming from your hips into your turns and then movement the other way coming down..if you know what l mean..l hope l don't sound like a know it all..because your fine as it is..but to be even better l think if your hips got more involved your arms would automatically move more the way you were saying you want..Anyway you will figure it yourself your a Legend..love your work
Sick Koa!!! I saw your wave that day in Tahiti 10 yrs. ago- . Do people remember it was Laird who towed you in? Him and Kobe were the greatest show on 🌎- Your charging has always been next level so inspiring to see these vids man. Who's the backside tube maestro at min. 8:20? Paz
i believe we all would like to see explanation on surfboard build and why you choose one size, shape, liters the way you choose them etc... hope that make sense tho lol !
Ivan uses front traction! My man!!! I started using full traction because of Christian Fletcher, who was my surfing hero growing up. Yeah I'm 47 but I've still got the stoke!
Hey koa interested on your thoughts of Mike stewart Jeff kianoa ben kieth chris won and all the best boog riders of pipe and surrounds they changed the game. I'm a lid rider sth Coast Australia 🇦🇺
You are the man Koa! I would love to know what ifeels like duckdiving a 10-12 Ft wave, or jumping in the whitewash of a 10-12 ft wave that just broke (closeout). and qhat you do to stay calm
Hey Koa 👋 after watching this episode I think that most of your back hand turns off the lip you just seem to hang it out up there too long, just need a bit more speed in whipping the tail back around. Anyway bro love the surfing 🏄♂️ big up from 🇬🇧 uk
Awesome podcast with Bert! Afterwards he said that he found out you are like royalty in Hawaii - please elaborate what he meant by that! Also, why don’t you have any traditional Hawaiian tattoos like Jason Momoa. What are your thoughts on that style of tattoos
I like seeing Goofy Footed 1/2 Hawaiian Heebs Getting barreled If you please.... Jokes aside your videos are super inspiring and your ethics seem pure. P. E. A. C. E.
Yeah braddah, make videos to be able to look back on your own progression. If people like to watch your footage.. you win twice!! 🤙🏼🤙🏼 yessah keep ripping!
just keep it real…love the vlogs…used to watch Jamie's, but, it is just getting too PG mainstream well non stop "buy my shit". Would love to see more behind the scenes night outs, more everyday stuff around North Shore.
Koa,, is there anyway you could go out on a longboard? Just to show novice surfers how important it is to learn your fundamentals on a longboard first, before you transition to a shortboard. It would make for an interesting This is Livin.
You need to swivel your hips more in small waves. And that's the only thing I'll ever even attempt to tell you. You and Nathan especially get better as it gets bigger and bigger
🍔🥩🌭 What’s up Cold A this is Joe from California maybe for an episode you should have a barbecue and invite all the boys over so you guys just hanging out what you do in the evenings having some beers just an idea thanks bruh 🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻

So much fun watching you Koa, thanks
Been waiting for some Pipe action, and now we’re about to get it✊🏽

I think what your trying to say is a little more of a vlog style. Which I agree with I still want all the surfing content tho
Definitely more after surfing content! Good to see you on Bert’s podcast. Your a legend!
Yes alot more life as a surfer, training, food, diner, travel and not only surf
Yeah, that Bert podcast was awesome. Never heard of him. He was funny.
Big brother's watching 😂👀
I love all of the technical stuff, it’s always good to get some inside’s. Great content!
Always good to see Mr. Cool in other videos.

Well I don't know for sure about Koa and the Florence bros. But I'd say they were all on shortboards pretty much from day dot.
I’d like to see a cameo with your Dad giving a comment of whatever he wants to say. Eddie is the man!
I really like the shots where you here the raw sound of waves without any music while watching great surfing . Do some more of these 🙂 Thanks for explanining about waves, super interesting!

Love the shot at 8;37. Super cool edit all around. Sorry yr arm got hurt. Thanks Koa and Jack! Oh and get Lydia in a video, she is so cute!
I’d love to see the day to day things in y’all’s life. And maybe the night life too.
Yes Koa, it is the small waves that get you. I surf Honolua in the 70ʻs point break till around the cliff
No big wave was unridden. It was a small wave just riding in and my board hit my nose.
Yes, my girlfriend lifeguard also gave me an ice pack. Thank you Koa.
I'd like to see you surfing in Makaha or at break neck sandys.

Koa jack thank you 😃🤙 and so it begins 😃 Hawaii looks beautiful
I wanna see ur dj set!
Did you toke before that intro? Would love to see that haha
Great that a charger like you wants to fix backhand technique of the lip. Watch Bobby Martinez and what his hands and arms do ?
Yea u koa!
We gotta see another workout video with Nathan
Dude, your backside turns are on point!
I want to see more vids with your brother.
I’d Love to see a POV raw like Nathan

Show us Hawaii. All of it!!
Yeah braddah, make videos to be able to look back on your own progression. If people like to watch your footage.. you win twice!! 🤙🏼🤙🏼 yessah keep ripping!
Don’t change anything!!
Your quiver dimensions, fins and what you choose why would be cool.
just keep it real…love the vlogs…used to watch Jamie's, but, it is just getting too PG mainstream well non stop "buy my shit". Would love to see more behind the scenes night outs, more everyday stuff around North Shore.
Koa,, is there anyway you could go out on a longboard? Just to show novice surfers how important it is to learn your fundamentals on a longboard first, before you transition to a shortboard. It would make for an interesting This is Livin.
Lol
i started on a shortboard and it made me better than people ive known who started on longboards.
Just pulled my groin on a fall yesterday on a small day. Wtffff.
Ivan is great wish could surf session with you two
More Bodyboarders
Broo you gotta be stoned in the beginning of this😂 I feel like you definitely don’t smoke tho so I’ll bring some edibles let’s get shlizy and go surf🤙
You need to swivel your hips more in small waves. And that's the only thing I'll ever even attempt to tell you. You and Nathan especially get better as it gets bigger and bigger
I like them.
RIP Dan Flecky
Aka if I'm trynna get into surfing dangerous waves I should hit log cabins to start, then otw, then pipe
🍔🥩🌭 What’s up Cold A this is Joe from California maybe for an episode you should have a barbecue and invite all the boys over so you guys just hanging out what you do in the evenings having some beers just an idea thanks bruh 🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻
Come to peru
So you're politely saying, "Kooks don't come to Hawaii & paddle out at Logs" 🤙
Nice
Yes, Logs has claimed some of my flesh more than once!
