Way Off-Grid, Cold and Throttling: Watch Maps to Nowhere Ep 4, “Where The Road Ends”
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 сен 2024
- Remote. Off-grid. Uncomfortable. Far. This place was all that and more - a cold-water desert coast where the issue wasn’t so much whether there’d be swell, but whether there’d be too much swell. That, and staying warm.
Even for diehard surf traveler/journalist Matt Rode, who’s spent the last 20 years getting as far away from other surfers as possible, it was a solid call. For his travel buddies Jordy Smith and Soli Bailey, it was a chance to step away from the everyday, and stretch their skills in some increasingly epic surf zones. In “Where The Road Ends”, the crew drives for days into the desert, camping on remote bluffs under the night sky and waking up to waves they’d hoped for, but never expected. Even for such a well-traveled bunch, it’s a surf camping trip like no other.
*Note: “Maps to Nowhere” is a series about how far surfers will go to ride perfect, empty waves. The spots yu'll see in the series are not new discoveries, but they are perfect, empty, and remain undisclosed, because our belief is that the journey is at least half the fun - and sometimes, over half the travel time. We thank the many local community members who've helped make our adventures a success.

So sad the first season is over. All episodes were truly amazing. Looking forward for more of this from Matt !
The best series I've seen in a long time.
Wow! This series is my favorite thing I have ever watched! It literally gives you all the best feels! Being land locked as of right now, this was exactly what I needed to keep the stoke on! Thanks for taking us along on the journey!
Great surfers + great conditions + great camerawork + great editing + great music = great entertainment.
This series fired me up to go surf a novelty wave id looked at for days and I scored!! Great work by the wave hunters
Mission accomplished then!
Reminds me of a trip with some Kiwi friends across Australia - east coast to west coast - back in the 1970's one summer ...... remote locations in the desert & West Australia. Great times with some crazy Uni students seeking adventure, new locations & remote waves. Great video guys .... keep doing this!
lekker bru, this must be in Southern Africa along west coast 100%, this was such an amazing video,, great job
EXCELLENT
More of this please! Haven't seen a series this well done since John John's Twelve, so stoked
Third. Also totally South African west coast.
Hahaha shhhh
Shot bru 😎
Exactly.
That wave is gorgeous ! thanks for this series it's unreal
just incredible, keep this going!!!! yiuuuuh!!
Super cool series, loved every episode. Surf trips/adventures are awesome. That feeling of being in the middle of nowhere surfing super fun waves with just a core crew of friends, that's the best. Can't wait!

Totally awesome. Looks like what I am still trying to find. Still searching for cool cobblestone bottom pointbreaks a blissful climate wearing a wetsuit most of the time and UNCROWDED. You lads really scored. Would swap places with you immediately and stay.
Damn, I can’t wait for the next big swell here. Frothing after watching this. Epic season 1 well done 🤙🏼
The boys got super-coned!!! Gr8 vid! 8^)
Super cool.
It's like the surf trips before internet .
Awesome effort
Jordy's stall at 12:00 was simply beautiful
Found the spot! Saving that for sure.
Keep ‘em coming our way please 🙏
Put on a show for the empty beach, awesome film
Can't wait for season 2! Looking forward to Matts email so I can get on the trip as well =)
Rode....me and you, besties right.
Great work brother!
10/10
Peace
❤
Love jordy smiths surfing
Legendary Matt 🌊🌊🌊
Always here early, always in love with what yall put out in this series. Will buy a plane ticket and film you for free lmao
Well done guys, nice and fresh content
Bru, someone should make a clip of just Jordys stoke every time he sees a wave ahaha
Rad series!
Great series!
Slab they didn't get is called the "Chamber, mental Slab
This one was probably somewhere on the west coast of south Africa or southern Namibia
Nathan Florence would of paddled out
Yea too bad he doesn’t ride for O’Neal. Would be cool to see him on one of these
Hope your consider yourself lucky to do this. I know your grateful
Is this the same spot as where Mason ho and mick fanning went for outer inner space; the search?
Oooooooohhhhhh yeeeeeeeeeaaaaaahhhhhhh!!!!!!!
Weskus🤙
this is west coast SA
North coast of Scotland is one of those places 🤙🏼
south aus over west i reckon
Jordy such a diva. Soli killed it.
Yeah bro!! Frothing
What is the song starting at 9:47? Perfect choice
Great series...very entertaining...unless, of course it exposes your seceret spot...then its an abomination..I cant wait untill next season to see if you can ruin another of my favorite destinations.

West is best !!
After watching this I realized that this is a beach-break, not a cobblestone bottomed point, so I would not want to stay for more than a week. I must keep searching for the perfect surfing lifestyle place to live. Western and South Australia are at the top of my list along with South Africa's cold cobblestone points.
This looks like the area east of Esperance, WA. It would have plenty of waves, very few people and hungry Noahs.
Anyone know the song playing when theyre on the slab wave?
first edit is plasma ray by parkview sky and second edit is you take my hand by tinlicker

Early worm gets the first comment. So give us your review!

Camping 🏕️ ✅ this series has been one of the highlights of surf films in the past 20+ years thank you Surfline and O'Neill 👏🏼🎉
Amazing 🥲 can't wait for season 2 already
this series was unreal, made me reconnect with the essence of surfing!! Aloha.
We'll see you back for Season 2! Love to hear it.
Such epic content 🤙🏾
Cool edit but does Surfline have any comment on the criticisms from guys like Nathan Florence and Koa Rothman about showing up to place slike Teahupoo and stealing content from free surfers who are making their living as content creators?
Lol
What are you on about
