Dylan Graves and Friends Surfing Ice Cold Waves in the Baltic Sea
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 июл 2024
- “Baltic.” Just the sound of that name puts a little chill along the spine, and it’s not a surprise. This is a body of water almost completely enclosed by northern Europe, and with one coast facing Sweden, you have to guess it is not trunks weather. But this strange brackish sea hides some very fun little moments, and Dylan’s been talking to friend and Swedish pro surfer Freddie Meadows about scoring it for years. It seems his chance has arrived - but then his boards and wetsuits don’t. Dylan’s forced to fall back on to the kindness of new friends, and fortunately, friendship is something Swedish people possess in large quantities. As well as a touching and almost unfathomable surf stoke, which seems born from the sea’s ruggedness. As local Henrik Alsen tells us: “That’s the thing about the Baltic, you need to be happy for everything.”

Surfline is KILLING IT with the last couple of series, crazy to see such amazing surf content available for free
Yeah, it’s been getting better 👍
Stoked to see you like what we’ve been making! Credit goes to Dylan here, we’re just stoked to share it 🤙🏽
@@Surfline Yeah! Dylan has been on the odd wave hunt for a long time 👍 he’s got some really fun videos on his own RUclips channel @DylanGravesYT
Yeah big improvement 👍
As a Swedish surfer, this was simply beautiful to watch. Put a smile on my face!
That point session at the end is way, way, way better than what I've been surfing lately. I'd paddle out in a Speedo if I could get waves like that at this point.
+1... and also has waaay less crowd than were I surf in boardshorts ahhahaha
It's been flat here on the westcoast of Florida for two months and no end in sight.
Enjoy whatever can even push your board.
This is mandatory viewing for anybody who’s getting the shits with their local for not providing the waves they want. The vibe in that little surf community is absolute gold. How good to see that lady score the wave of the day and then have Dylan give that affirmation. This is beautiful
SUCH A GOOD SERIES
Stoked you dig it!
Dylan you are becoming the George Clooney of surf vids! (ha ha ha) You tell a great story, its fun to watch, you have a wonderful presence and everyone is genuinely happy to see you and vice versa. Luv the way you show the passionate locals, the folks who don't surf for the glory/attention but for their own well being. So, thanks for sharing. Cheers

Honestly weird waves is my favourite surf content ever. Thank you to everyone involved in this series. I love weird waves!
Nice that you came to the baltic sea for surfing. Finding some waves in the Red Sea would be also nice stuff for an episode
I'm into it, any leads or people to chat to from there?
do an episode in darwin, northern terrritory Australia, thiers a good little scene of die hards that surf the cyclones with the crocs and jelly fish every year. Epics episode these little surf community's are so full of joy!
😯
Swedens surfing reminds me of at home in the Great Lakes you’re just stoked to be in the water. Even though our conditions are so inconsistent.
As a Baltic surfer myself I can relate a lot to your community at the Great Lakes!
Yeah, hundop. Lake surfer here, my buddy drove around for 10 hours to surf waves most people in California wouldnt even walk down the street for.
epic episode and dylan was ripping , mustve been best turn ever done there- aswell as freddy who seems like a cool guy and surfs sooo good
Cheers Dylan for covering the baltic surf scene. It truly is special. Everyone who's out in mid-jan freezing waters really wants to be there and the stoke is real.
Hahaha. I'm the lone lid there. I was testing a housing and saw what I thought was some local weather report happening on the shore. Weirded me out, never seen anyone else there. They called me in but I just thought "Nope"
Should have come out anyway, travelled all that way.
This theme song makes me feel so good to be a surfer! thanks you guys for getting these stories out there! love watching them
When are we going to see a TG appearance?!
Linn's killing it on that last wave!
11:00 Freddy wearing that really touristy looking beanie with "Ostsee" (Baltic Sea in german) on it is just so fitting. Everyone surfing on this "Baltic Lake" is truly passionate about the sport and the sea.
Baltic surfer myself but from germany. The Point at the end is so crazy good. Cant wait for Winter seeing this
Mega stoke!
So awesome you got some waves! Freddie is the man (legend)
Sweden do get good waves, but just like Freddie said sometimes we have to wait some years for the stars to align. So happy to see more Weird Waves Dylan. Pure stoke!
Such Stoke!
Aloha and ❤ Sweden
Thanks Dylan for sharing 🤙
It is awesome to see so much stoke in a place you never would believe people surf.
So fun to see how stoked people are to see Dylan show up 😊. The stoke passes on to the viewer too. Great episode ✌🏼
Been waiting for this episode for so long. Love it!!
“Back in the day” kinda vibes. The Aloha spirit is alive and well in Sweden🇸🇪. Also, Linn surfs pretty damn good. 🤙🤙🤙
To Dylan and all of the sponsors thank you for putting great content!!!
Happy you’re enjoying it!
Dylan seems like the best friend you've never met. What a dude.
Dylan is a legend! Super genuine frother ...I still wanna see 6-10ft Teahupoo but this is epic as well
Amazing episode! I always wondered if it was possible to surf in the baltic and now I finally have an answer. This is genuinely a beautiful and inspiring series and I hope everyone behind it is as stoked to make it as I and everyone else here is to watch it.
Weird Waves, always being the good vibes!
These are so good, Dylan. Seriously keep making these, please.
We agree!
One day in 20 years Dylan is going to be able spin a world globe, stop it with his index finger, and say “I surfed a fun little wedge there in 2014”. What a magical thing, and a life well lived.
Dylan and the crew are capturing something special with Weird Waves, especially in this episode!
This makes me so grateful for what we have. I am dreaming.
that turn tho. with booties you reminded me of that Ratboy collins stylie 👌🏻⚡️
There are a lot of spots. Just not necessarily Sweden. My favorite body of water in the world, still, and I’ve been everywhere.
short interval and not wanting to duck usually mix well.. sick series, keep it going!
you just go for it i love those ooh we‘ll see what happens not the cleanest day sessions😊
So stoked to see this! 🤙🏻🇸🇪
I love these episodes
So epic! Man I love these videos
So sick that you rode an Arakawa there!
great waves! Wow! I know the western baltic...
Killer video! 😮 The execution and finished product has gotten a lot better lately. Maps to Nowhere is awesome 👏 and Dylan does a great job with the novelty and weirdo waves. Check out some of the older content, like the Uncharted series, or the Out Front videos.
Linn is killing it
These videos make me smile
😃🤙
great video. lynn (sp) you were ripping!
Good stuff.
Can't believe how that point made wind slop a fun wave
4 degree water temp. Pure madness. 14 is about my limit.
It looks like normal NJ 😆. And the good old January brain freeze duck dive 😆.
Epic!
Hey Dylan come to Nh Maine or Cape cod in the winter or Fall 🥶
down
Weird Waves 🤝🏼 cold waves
Great video🤘
👏👏👏 Rad episode!
Killing it Dylan
Years ago I suggested to Nick Carroll a series like that. An homage to those who really worship this sport by dodging rare sessions and mean conditions.
Mostly doing everything Windspelse too like windsports, foiling just to get out the most.
He could not get it. Thought it was wierd.
Sick vid 🤙🏽
🤙🏽🤙🏽
Such a killer vid Dylan
Epic
Dylan you should go to North East UK. Nicest people in the world with class waves and an industrial setting - you might be surprised.
Similar to what we get in Lake Michigan
That guy sponsored by BMW? 😂 12:51
Yes he is 😊
K-Bay ❤
Prime 🤟🏾
what's going on at the 7:17 - 7:22 mark
Hey Dylan come to Nh or Maine or Cape cod in the winter or fall🥶
When I’m traveling I’m looking for a 7’4. Dylan: 5’4.
The coasts with the worst waves have the nicest surfers. Fact
I fav weird waves.
Where can we find the theme song playing at 7:55 ? That was a sick episode btw
🤙Yeah D 🙏
Okay, if it’s not too cold for the Swedes to surf the Baltic, then it’s not too cold for me to surf Lake Michigan.
🤘😎
Graves 2024!
How's that chick wearing Rip Curl H Bomb heated vest? Cool to see that after all these years
What FKN maniac was shooting water 😲
Haha I'm definitely a lover of diehards and a die hard myself. The best
No frio for me no way😂😂😂
IKEA x Weird Waves collab?
The Baltic is a lot like the Gulf on the Westcoast of Florida.
There are better waves around here than whats on video and in pictures.
You just have to know Where and When to go its why i respect my Baltic Brethren.
Frothy
professional surfer and the only board he has is a 10 year old grom board?
I imagine he rides bigger, thicker boards than DG so gave him something that suited him. And Freddy Meadows isn't a pro anymore.
It looks like normal NJ 😆. And the good old January brain freeze duck dive 😆.
