Nathan Florence Great job. Palms were sweating just watching. Waves were epic. Take care of shoulder.
Dude you were absolutely ripping !! Can’t wait to check you there next year 🔥🔥
Yeeeewwww 🤙🏼
Nathan -- I''m an old guy. Never surfed a day in my life. I've watched a few of your videos, and I have to tell you that you're absolutely awesome. You're a world-class professional, able to do things -- with style -- that fewer than 0.0001% of the world's population can do. And as best I can tell from these videos, you're a down-to-earth, normal, good guy. May you go from strength to strength, in good health -- and keep inspiring your legion of fans and admirers.
The anxiety.., adrenal.. the story telling, the bonding, the friendship.. the experience.. This vlog hit a home run.. exhausted watching.. returning to watch again.. this time while drinking beer.. ! wow!
Frank J Bott you nailed it! These are the trips that bond brothers for ever
Beyond epic !
that's quick
Ben Gravy biiiig dog!!!!🤙🏼🔥
Gravyyyyyy yeaw 🤙💙🧜♂️
BG...gets invite to Jaws and the Eddie next year.....better start building that 10'6 softop haha..
the REAL "el slammo" LOL!
29:19 cant even comprehend riding a wave so big you literally have time to paddle in, stand up, and decide to bail out all while you’re on the lip
Dallas Kolotylo so hectic 😂 made a good call too thing had a lip way down
No exaggeration... perhaps the sickest moment ever captured on video.
Audio is so atmospheric. It makes me feel the anxiety, relief, exhilaration, fear, all the emotions the competitors would of been going through. EPIC Vid. Shout out to all you guys that charged it hard. Legends!!
Those weren’t waves. Those were mountains. 😳 Congrats Nate.
You Florence brothers are one of the most Entertaining to watch, this video was put together so we’ll and I’m stoked you shared your experience with us
I'm at a loss for words. Thanks for bringing us along for the ride. And huge congrats to you, Billy Kemper, and all the boys that have the nads as big as those waves to paddle out and show us such incredible feats!
Dan O'Malls thanks for watching and enjoying!
That was absolutely mental!! My anxiety was off the charts with the build up , then contest was insane. Congrats Nate. One of the best eppies yet. Yeeewww 🤙
Been watching surf videos for 20 years, back in the 90's on VHS tape when I first started riding, but your vlogs give me chills like the first time I ever saw big surf on those tapes. Hands down my favourite surfer and channel. Thank you for this pure gold we're lucky to be watching, its utterly incredible. Greetings from the UK.
Sick !!! Ive seen 12-15 ft on Guam once. Been out in 10ft on a shallow reef . They never look that big on screen or even from shore , but they are ! I would love to experience this size wave once in my life . Not to ride but just chilling on a ski watching. Much respect for these guys!
Yo this was the sickest vlog ever! The music y’all pick always makes it way more insane & intense! Love it! WOW
Now I know why I love these Vlogs so much . You get a way more personal connection to this whole world of surfing . I was yelling for you and Billy and Koa and Eli the whole time , every wave . I was soo jacked . What a week for Hawaii and surfing in general . Can't wait for the next one to drop !!
This was so well done! Great content, great editing. You've definitely set a new standard for surf vlogs!
Honestly this guy is my new favourite surfer, Nath the vlogs recently have been so sick and seeing you live the other day at jaws from the rainy old UK just got me so Psyched, keep up the good work brother🤙🏼yewww
Luke Adey thanks man! Glad you enjoy the show!
Still picking our jaws up off the floor. Whaaaaaaaaaaat! 🤯
Ba dum tssss
Best. Episode. Ever! Holy shit. Y’all SENT IT!
TheAlohabrudda thanks legend!!!
You guys KILLED it! Congratulations Nathen. Killer episode.
UN-REAL. Glad all da boyz are all good! (mostly) Such an inspiration to see you and your friends charging like that!
For those wondering the last song is Helvegen by Wardruna, first heard it in Vikings, epic tune 😬
Wow, that was EPIC! Looks like some high end documentary a pro film studio would crank out, which I guess is exactly what it is! This HAS to win a few awards...you should be as proud of this as you are your 3RD place overall! And out of like what, 24 of the craziest big wave dudes on the planet...Totally right there with your Shipstern win! Freakin' Billy - what an animal! And right after the win at Pipe.....jeeez....
Dean Pesci fuck yeah man thanks!!! This my favorite edit so far !!!
Totally agree! The editing is top-notch! look out-JOB vlogs! lol
I agree camera work is so dope, unique style of editing keeping it raw
@@NathanFlorence Hey Nate - thanks for the reply....I added another comment regarding the Bolt thing...just curious on how that stands these days...was there back in the day, and now I am kind of old and landlocked in Colorado, neither of which is a bad thing considering alternatives! Still waking up and doing that in Colorado is a blessing. Do not take one day for granted, as 30 years gets behind you in one hell of a hurry...you are the man - seize the fucking moment!
The scoring is the best I've seen in like 20+ years. The music was in sync with the buildup to the moment and the epic battle in the Coliseum that is Jaws pumping- had me nostalgic.
I was in Tubes restaurant in Bali about 23 years ago, about to surf a massive swell the next day at Uluwatu... and they played a surf video of massive waves with Prong's 'Snap your fingers, snap your neck" as the score. It had me ready to face the next day. And I did.
But this combination of Nordic, Mongolian, Hawaiin warrior music and double the size waves got me ready to narc on everyone. :p
Ted D hahahahha fuck yah narc on them all
Hands down the sickest surf edit out there! Captured the intensity and beauty of the wave for someone that will never surf it!
Geez have watched this about 5 times now. The editing and production is just first class. It’s just mesmerizing. Those are some of the scariest scenes. Pure survival at sea day. Well done.
Michael Hickson i keep rewatching it too 😂 so fun!!
30ft Barrels Spitting! Its hard for people to understand how heavy this is!!! Epic video Nate
King Leunitas thanks man!!
So sick! Best episode! Thanks for making these guys. Congratulations Nathan on an awesome result
This vlog is Sick! I’ve been waiting for this one to come out. Congrats on 3rd, you guys are nuts
Incredible surfing, masssive bravery, and insane courage just to paddle into one of those beasts! Thanks for carrying the torch for the next generation of big wave surfers with class, and esteem Nate. You and da Boyz are the real deal.
D Man thanka boss!!
Good job Nathan, that wave is no joke. Paddling into them is an act of courage for each one. Cheers and aloha from the big island
Im so hyped for this blog
You killed it Nathan. So much respect for all the guys who surf that wave when its 50 foot.
Such a Sick Vlog Ricky! Those falls had me trying to breathe for you guys. TOMO and ZOARD that's some Crew!! Going to be seeing some sick Vloggs with these 2. 🔥🔥🔥🙌 Great job and congrats Ricky with 3rd speed shades get Billy Status. Let's Go!
Holly Molly Nate! All you guys pushed it so hard and so glad you all survived such incredible power.
Epic!!! WoWWWW!!! Congrats Nathan for the great surfing the fantastic result and the awesome video!
Slogo thank YOU!
Epic! So much fun to watch it live. Congrats on the 3rd place. You guys are warriors. Didn't you have a gopro on your board? Would be sick to see it!
Tomas Zeman i did big barrel i didnt make took the gopro
Unimaginable! From someone thats never surfed, riding a wave like that has to be a life altering experience.
Surprised everyone out there stayed afloat, considering their MASSIVE BRASS BALLS. Congrats on 3rd Nate, I think placing anything at all is a huge achievement. Also hats off to your editor, this video is definitely saved as one of my favorites. Yew!
A day like that must make the past more distant, and the future much closer. Amazing to watch you guys carve thru those waves!
This episode was so dope and exhilarating! I def think it’s one of your guys’ best! Always loving the vids. Keep it up boys 🤘🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
Best surfing related video I've seen in a long long time. Bout as raw as it gets. Final was insane.
This is the best big wave video I’ve seen. Main role is played by the ocean and those fearsome waves, while Man heroically tries to approach them.
That wave is sick, it's like a giant chewing machine. Good job on getting 3rd! Billy was a monster throughout the contest!! Yeew 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
Best vlog ever made. This one was sick! So awesome to be amongst you guys
dude out of control...your a LEGEND. Sick
Rick Johnson thanks boss!
Around 23:30 was insane battle to stay on board.. that was a serious day out there... respect.
Nathan, This was probably the most epic vlog I have ever seen of surfing. Almost like a movie. Those waves were once in a lifetime and I am glad you shared this incredible experience with us and to the world. There are not enough positives I can say to do this vlog justice. All I can say this congratulations on third place and thank you.
Viking-esque music while guys are dropping in on mountains in slow mo was EPIC. No doubt the entire surfing world is in awe of what these guys do.
I am in awe of those waves and what you guys did there. Watching so much blue water come down with that foam it's a big beautiful falling wall of aqua blue power. And you guys took it on. Thanks for the vid Nathan it's the second time I watched. The waves and the music.
Holy crap Nate, you absolutely crushed it out there!!! Those might be the best waves I've ever seen at Jaws and you were ripping so hard!! Incredible filming and edit as well, award-winning caliber IMO!!! You continue to blow me away with your positive attitude, skill level, and content! Thank you so much for doing the vlog and letting us live vicariously through you. I can't wait for the next edit! Congrats on the 3rd place finish!!! 🤙
F Epic. sickest Jaws footage…amazing music. stoked.
This is an incredible Vid Nathan and by FAR your best Vlog ever. You guys will bring big wave surfing on next level. True humility, dedication, hard work and courage. You’re a model for all of us. Keep ripping
That was a wicked video mate 🙌 and congrats !!
That was incredible so insane Nate, huge respect to you, Eli, Koa and all the rest of the big wave chargers you guys are animals!!
Phil Watson thanks man your support mean alot to us! We want to bring you guys Honor
Was watching it live the whole time bro, you were fookin killing it
Brunner Films thanks!!!
Great vid Nathan. Big respect to you and those who dare!
Congrats to all that competed. Much Respect. I Love the new cross Vlog format you guy's are doing! Truly living the dream life, Pura vida!
Sick charging! Totally epic edit, did those waves justice all around. killing it! props.
Best video so far, and waves were insane! Wardruna sound was spot on - movie quality!
@Nathan Florence you guys are nuts. Was really fun watching it live, absolutely hectic! Keep doing what you do and stay safe! Come see us in Nicaragua some time. Can put the boys on some heavy ones.
Best footage, with my favorite soundtrack. Just amazing.
From an old surf dude to you young guns; Excellent! Primo editing and sound track, too!
Wow, this was really well put together. Your best video so far. It really showed why they call it "JAWS". Congrats on getting 3rd place. Thanks for an awesome video!
Sick edit and that song choice AGAIN.
Stoked you made it to final those waves were mental.
Awesome hypnotic music , good editing showing the Hawaiian blue at its best , power on top of power . Seasoned surfers charging a new kind of bomb filled with adrenaline. Hawaii’s Aloha
Sickest vid. I've seen for a long long time.
The beggining of Legends..
Keep ripping
Amazing day! Congrats legend! So stoked to hear some Wardruna during the vlog. Matched the tension perfectly. Yew!
Best jaws experience ever. You guys rock. Your footage and editing are on point! Congrats on your podium!
That split second decision to bail at 29:21 is insane.
eli's wave was one of the best of the contest...that was a big dog wave. good for eli!
tony smario wave looked so fkn big!!!
I just wanted to say that u an your brothers and the boys are so rad to watch. I've been surfing all my life but watching you an your team and boys are a WHOLE OTHER LEVEL. Sickos much much respect to you all keep charging.
Thank you so much for this video🙏🏼😎😊
JJ Pinto your welcome mann thank you!
Love the details and candids of footage, just the dudes hanging out the night before, etc, it's a cool insight. And the wipeout at 22:00 is crazy. Your production crew is doing a great job now.
you and your team are killing it, thanks for bringing us along legend.
BEST EDIT, yet! Definitely pushing the limits at Jaws! It's amazing the support that you guys have now. Heal up. I've never been smacked around by anything over 15ft.(cali), looks like it bends/twist ya a bit.
I cant believe you putting in double arms on 25-30foot plus waves.. Ballsy as fck. One of the best surf vids I'd seen this year for sure. Congrats on the 3rd and stoked you were so psyched the whole time climbing up the cliff, busted arm but still on such a high. Awesome.
Dane Stanley thanks man! Was an incredible day im still tripping on it!!
22:05!!! MY GOD! I’m anxiety! EPIC EPIC EPIC! I’m glad he is ok man. Great video yewww
You guy's had an awesome contest proud of all of you Nasty Nate almost got the W, Koa great waves Bill K blessings to y'all and may Neptune keep you guy's safe. Fear is the best fuel for the motor of life. Mahalo
Thank you for making & sharing this beyond epic episode. So glad you made it out alive & hope you are healing & recharging now. Did you loose your go pro in a wipe out or have we got this to look forward to, im patient, just very excited about the possible footage you got. Happy days & happy waves to you! :-)
I said your pipe footage was the best yet now I have to say that the jaws footage is the best yet. Congratulations Nate great job. I hope your left shoulder heals
Everything was so good in this video.The edit , the waves and of course the surfing.You guys are progressing big wave surfing so quickly .Oh yeah really cool to see 3 good mates surfing in such a big contest at Jaws.
That was amazing, great job Nathan and to your editor keep them coming!
Not sure what is more impressive..the surfing or the technology and people that get it on film. Well done
Congrats Nate! You guys are total warriors. So rad.
Best Vlog I have ever seen.!
Hats off to you and your team Nathan.
Legend! You're the real deal Nate. The photographer and edit was better than the live cast 🇦🇺
I know this one is old but, it is my favorite video. The part with Wardruna music and the images is breath taking. The skills you guys have to ride these monsters is so epic
Epic man! Those were some Bombs. Psycho waves for sure!
That TV reporter??? Freakin legend!! 🤙🏼🤙🏼
yooo nathan this has to be the best surf video of the year!!!
Amazing video start to finish. Can not comprehend being in waves like that. Just a different level of human ability
Hell yah! That got me pumped, going to Hawaii for a month in January to surf!! Brilliantly edited and I'm a professional editor. Bravo guys!!!!
The cinematography on this is just as good as the surfing
great episode Nate....watched it live of course. So interesting to see all the lead up to an event like this etc.... How awesome were you? Truly amazing man....so so cool to see all your crew doing so well. They all scored bombs bro. Congrats mate.....you guys were born to do this absolutely insane big wave surfing, that gives all of us so much fun in watching you nuts! Good luck topping this episode lol....and go John in the Pipe!
Watching again and for sure this is the best ever guys. Thank you guys, Nate and friends and crew this is like a spiritual revelation to me. Saludos..great music by way..bests.
not sure what you are even going to say, nate. i watched the contest on wsl.com...
your performance throughout the contest was one of the best that big wave surfing has ever seen, in my opinion.
you picked big perfect peaks and surfed them like it was 20 foot backdoor! i was blown away by how outstanding your surfing looked, despite having too big a surfboard. if the waves would have stayed good in the afternoon, it would have been a real big wave shootout, and you would have been hard to beat.
hats off to billy the king! that was a sick wave he committed to at the gun...he could have just as easily been torn up and broke his board. BK is a real bad ass in big waves!
and kudos to koa...he scored a couple sick waves, and played it smart in the final, not wanting to risk it in those waves with guys more qualified. i thought you both showed huge balls, and great skill.
for sure, nathan, you deserved to be there. that was a sick performance, and you really put it on the line!
congratulations!!
tony smario thanks man means alot! Was a wild day ill never forget it
Maybe the best video yet! Well produced
Best video by far 👌
Nice Video Man, love the Vikings theme :D
