The is, far and away, the most captivating video I've seen of people surfing at Nazare. We are given much more insight into the complications and skills required of the person pulling the surfer into place. The sounds of the water and wind are forbidding yet beautiful. As are all the bone chilling shades of grey that make up the water and sky. The feel of it is very different without crowds of people all around. Just the scattering of small black figures, moving back and forth across the dark water, under the dirty white sky. This depicts a very different world of surfing than the days of loud crowds and all the carrying on - especially as the video doesn't have shrill thumpy music. The natural sounds are so much better. They make sense. I can understand why THIS world captivates people.
Absolutely gorgeous, kudos for the video, best footage of Nazare I ve seen thus far....amazing with power sounds of the waves....shame it was so short :P
this is some really good footage man, i appreciate that you didn't cut it up into 2 second long segments and put some terrible music over it. That really is a wall of water.
Loved the long shots over the open sea. It’s great to get that perspective. The 360 fly round the castle is really good too. It’s rare to see those perspectives with most videos just focusing on the wave ride. My favorite Nazare video in ages. Keep it up. Thank you too.
Wow. I have never gotten such a great view and understanding of trying to tow a surfer into the right wave. Hearing raw ocean is a huge bonus. It really breathes more life into the video. Great shots of the whole Nazare scene. Bravo good sir 👏 👏
Absolutely insane if that’s the normal way of towing these maniacs into those mountains of water that’s absolutely insane what a scary wave in every way shape and form massive Respect to all the have the skill and the guts to surf basically mountains of water God bless you all and God keep all that enters your beautiful creation of Nazare safe
Thank You for this video. You earned my sub. The power of these waves is unbelievable! The sounds help to make it more real. Surfing without terrible music, what a fresh approach.
Amazing & so refreshing & raw in black n white with just the sound of the roaring waves....& the surf team. Hope yo visit Nazare one day as a spectator ❤
Frighteningly beautiful…most people will never experience being drawn up to the top of the curl looking down and seeing the sand being being drawn up as the wave’s peak takes you up 20-25’ and you don’t want to go over the edge
Im so hoping the next time a record attempt is made, you are there to capture it Johannes, that could easy be some of the best surf footage ever taken if it meets your usual standards. My fingers are crossed for you 🤞
I don’t know if these people are crazy or courageous…. Prob both. I love the ocean but not this much love. I love it clean and beautiful to watch at and swim sometimes…. I love it for the fishes etc
Better than any kind of music.
Génial 👍 ! Merci 🙏 🇫🇷
By far the best footage I've ever seen.
Seein those waves chasin him, just unreal🤙🏽💖
The best overall film of Nazaré....absolutely!
Best video and picture I have seen from Nazaré! And - no music, just the pure sound of nature... 👍

Likewise… one of the best overviews and perfect filming of a ride ! 🙌🏾
Yes

Absolutely best overall film of Nazaré.🙌🙌🙌
Seriously, the best sound to go to sleep to. Amazing. Saving this for later tonight when I’m by myself about to doze off.
Beautifully done video!
I am blown away at the skill and absolute teamwork necessary just to get his ass up on that beast !!
I’m diggin da fact that u approached the “Sound Factor into the experience 💥 I had perforated ear drum n hated earplugs the Sound is crucial 🌊🤙🏼
Never seen the whole break , lefts only
Beautiful video
WOW!! Absolutley fearless! Awesome clip of Nazare Monster waves!
I really need to go here one day. Just to see it 😮
SERIOUSLY Amazing sound makes such a huge difference. and just the right length. BEST Nazare video I've ever seen! Just BRILLIANT! thank you!
this is just...it's just wild.
crap WILD..REALLY FREAKIN WILD
Thank you! Love everything about this.
Can't even begin to imagine how that sound must impact you when you're trying to ride it and it starts to storm down on you... Just overwhelming🙌
I feel awake, like I drank coffee… after watching that..
Absolutely amazing skills and coordination.
Thank you!! Best Nazare video - I can finally see the wave height/behaviour in relation to the land and the vantage points. Brilliant 🌟
this is some really good footage man, i appreciate that you didn't cut it up into 2 second long segments and put some terrible music over it. That really is a wall of water.
Großartige Bilder und Respekt, sich solchen Mauern aus Wasser mit dem Surfbrett entgegen zu stämmen!👍👏🏄♂️

the sound of the waves is amazing, terrifying but amazing. It's only beginning of the year but this video could be the best of 2024
beautiful video guys, first class!
Awesome , Best vid I've seen in awhile, Skill level off the charts
Also a wonderful depiction of how determinative bathymetry is to how waves form, and how that in turn affects beach shapes and erosion.
das ist ja Wahnsinn, sowohl die Leistung des Sportlers und auch des Videographen - einfach phantastisch
That's double loop back sling shot into perfect position was 😮
4:20 🏄♂🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🔥
Fantastic to look at a clip of nature without music and extras, just the sounds of nature. Fantastic
terryfying and fascinating at the same time.
so haben wir nazare vawes noch nie gesehen und gehört....outstanding mega geile videos
These deep infrasounds are terryfying and fascinating at the same time. What a huge experience of life it may be.
Many thanks for sharing.

Danke! Mega Aufnahmen und keine komische Musik
Nice to see you back. Have a lovely 2024, all the best.

Great footage! Well done!
Riding Giants... Instant sub! Great job xo
I was this whole week in Nazare and we saw some nice waves tuesday, 9th of January. It was epic!
Im so hoping the next time a record attempt is made, you are there to capture it Johannes, that could easy be some of the best surf footage ever taken if it meets your usual standards. My fingers are crossed for you 🤞
Great footage. Awesome sound!!. Thank you. Now I know why no one takes the right break. 😂
they’ve got it down to a fine art
Drone footage is peak.
Biggest wave of the year 2023.
Beautiful.
I don’t know if these people are crazy or courageous…. Prob both. I love the ocean but not this much love. I love it clean and beautiful to watch at and swim sometimes…. I love it for the fishes etc
Wow, magic
Whoever faces these waves is truly brave.
*insane
Each wave looks like tsunami. What an incredible place.
Johannes, thats so awesome. I just love your work!
Impressionnant 👍
Insane
Love the sounds, love the vid. Thank you. Natural sounds are the best.
I'm planning to visit Nazaré in February. Any recommendations?
of course i meant waves :-D ....and of course sebastian steudtner is kind of crazy ...beautiful slowmo
Wonderful ❤🤘🏼‼️
Bravo 👏
some of the best footage ever
Yes, the size of that wave is impressive, but I can't say I find this impressive surfing.
Epic!
Real deal work no BS great job 🤙
The D-zone is more the death zone than the drop zone to be honest...
Magnífic !!!
Who do you have to know to get to stand by the lighthouse?
Thank you sir. You just earned yourself a sub
Absolutely awesome!
That was amazing - Thank you.
GREAT VIDEOS, EXCELLENT QUALITY KEEP THEM COMING
Must feel like the devil’s chasing you
Very poetic
IMAX!!! Dorthy, we're not at Waikiki anymore.
I see why you don't have many guys going right on days like that!
Amazing, definitely one of the best surfing vids i've ever seen
Beautifull....
Amazing!!!
I’ve been there. It’s a beautiful monster!
Fantastic !

Maybe make a sound video, Nazare waves to sleep by❤!
Oh my god..
Epic raw power.
Going on the 8th Feb hopefully there be a big swell
How fast is he going on that wave? I’m guessing like, 45 mph, but really I have no idea.
NICE !
That wave looks like a dark shadow monster over taking him
💪💪💪💪👀
🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍

What an Animal!!!
Inspiring respect for Nature , but also deep fear
