Glad you’re ok dude.
Get those white hoodies out, I want one!!!!
That was gnarly bro! Glad you made it outta there. More props to you and drinking coffee before a surf sesh. I cramp like a MF everytime I drink coffee before a surf sesh.
Dig your surfing and your channel Koa. Surfing can be brutally punishing and humbling even for the best . . . mad respect for the way you keep it real and never front.
Respect for manning up and telling it like it is. If it was easy, we would all be out there.
Yeah they make it seems so easy but when you've been surfing for a long time you know that it's terrifying out there. One of my bucket list is to surf pipeline at least once when it's relatively small. I love to see people getting so pumped up in Hawaii after surfing on my home island has been forbidden for so long because of continuous deadly shark attacks (Reunion Island).
Been in waves half that size and the thought of drowning after being tumbled for 10 secs is very real, can’t imagine that shit
Say Sike Right Now so true. It’s just so stressful and the ocean is so powerful
So sick!!! But Koa could you make a video like nathan florence, full pov raw, I really wanna see how you paddle out and live it out there! 🔥🔥
everyone like this so Koa can see it.
Abizoman please Koa!!!
I’d love to see this as well.
yes please!!!!!!
Nate does Nate and Koa does Koa............... it's kinda like you clowns asking Kobe to be like Mike --- get outta here!
"I think I broke my neck. I'm gonna go grab a cup of coffee" lol
Pure badass 😂
I bet you he'll have a re-ocurring injury for life from that one...
"This could be the last swell of the season" ... if you know you know 🤘
Orlando MINHALL-NUSHI “love” your 10 mate
Koa Rothman “This was Living” that wipeout was crazy
Yes yes yes Thxxxxxxx....
Got the sickest pit the other day, n pumped hard by that wave! To get the goods you gotta pay tha man from time to time right.
Take care though Koa. N remember, “you’ll get reef rash if u don’t put somethin on those cuts” 😜
13:16 Dudddeee that was gnarly. Glad you made it out of that okay!
Yep
Pure brutality. That had to hurt.
Make a "This is the last swell of the season" T-Shirt ;-) Have your white T-Shirt and towel. Would have been on the North-Shore for one month but could't due to COVID19. Your Vlogs keep me sane. Aloha from Germany.
There's some other big RUclipsrs doing surf vids but tbh they don't have the vibe that yours have. So real and you're clearly a sound guy. Sending love from Italy
When some dude is as good as he is and says he almost died it sure puts things into perspective out there.
'Redemption Days' clips of all your best tube rides. You're still a young pirate, search and destroy those hollow pits...stay strong and triumph.
That kind of close call says one thing: "You are blessed". Soooo many things "could" have happened, but didn't. I appreciate you being real rather than some facade of macho...you being real, makes the rest of what you do real for everyone else watching your videos...KUDOS!
i broke my neck just over a year ago with an identical wipeout, either your one tuff dude or lucky as hell or both, glad to see your all good bro👍✊ heavy man
🙏🏼 Hope you have healed up or are healing well and find yourself in the water soon🙏🏼
Hope no damage to your cord ,I wasn't so lucky .
thanks y'all, it happened in Sebastian Florida with a c6-c7 fracture requiring plates and screws, was out of the water for almost one year and luckily have fully recovered, i consider myself extremely lucky 👍✊
@@seancatlin416 So sorry to hear 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 that medical advance find you soon.
Looking back on it, I think this was the wave that he ended up having neck surgery for.
Whew......tough wave.
breadstick confirmed strongest board to ever exist
God.. the way that lip landed on it.. I was like "yeah! Now you have toothpick!", but they both survived! Incredible..
Such a positive and humble dude. Hang in there brother 🤙🏻
Brah, i needed to hear this, I had such a brutal hold down on the biggest swell to hit the west side of Big Island this winter. It’s at a spot that is the closest thing to Pipe here and around that size. Got so blown up. Really questioned everything this winter. It’s good to know the best go through the same trials. Much aloha Koa, keep charging 🤙
I've surfed for 30 years because I keep it fun. I loved the big waves as a kid and still do on a dropping swell as they don't pose the unknowns and thus keeps it fun! What a blessed life you lead. I love the show. Better than JOB...
a true heart water-dog wouldn't be bashing on someone like Jamie ....... "dropping swell" / "thus"....... hahaha, not cool Poser
Speaking of JOB, you can hear him in the background at around 10:05
But that's no surprise giving how close he lives to, and how often he surfs pipe
Such a likeable and humble guy.
Thanks for being a great role model. You keep reminding us that the beaches are still open to surfing in Hawaii, that you are following the guidelines. Thank you so much!
*almost dies
Koa: "I think i'll go have some more coffee"
So glad you're ok... So heavy and So Honest and humble. It's strange and I think people would agree. I subscribed for the surfing but now I watch to see the man behind the surfing. Great job Guys.side note It was nice to here a little commentary from Jack 🤙🏼
You getting only 1 wave in 2 hours makes me feel way better about myself lol.
Same !
I love your honesty dude. You seem like such a cool guy.🤙
You're only human, I like your humble nature, knowing how hard you rip. Great vlog. Mahalo from Santa Monica.
It's refreshing to know that a guy who surfs that well has bad days too. Thanks for reminding us you're human too Koa.
Thanks for sharing your more humbling moments. As they say, "sometimes you eat the bear, sometimes the bear eats you."
Ive ate it like that at 4 foot beachbreak and allmost died! This is so gnarly! Glad you're alive to surf another day! 👍🏄😎
ok unless you cant swim or get impaled by ur board you cant almost die from a 4 ft beachbreak wipeout. please dont compare that to this wipeout, i know it feels scary in the moment, but its honestly nothing like pipeline
@@nick9zx haha, what? So you're saying you cant get slammed into a sandbottom 4ft grinder and get knocked out or break your neck?
Have a go at this mate:
www.swellnet.com/news/swellnet-dispatch/2020/04/24/justin-firgaira-being-down-four-wave-count
If it wasn't for his buddies, he is a done.
I've pulled a guy out of a 4ft beach break who couldn't move from below the neck …. The dude could surf too and wasn't some kook. Shit can happen.
Sean - P yeah i realizes that after writing my comment i missed the knockout option. just saying i don't like it when people compare tiny regular waves that seem scary in the moment to shit like this which is just terrifying
@@nick9zx all good man, Ive seen some heavy shit go down on sand bottoms. False sense of security for some crew 😂
Thanks for your honesty in describing what it felt like for you. It made it real. You guys are all so good that you make it look easy, but to hear and see the raw emotion brings home just how talented everyone out there really is, and even for expert surfers it's still good days and bad days. Thanks so much for sharing.
Oh my!!! Glad you are safe!! I think your knee pain is affecting your surfing. Take the time to rest your knee! Your surfing has improved so much over this winter. Don’t let a couple bad sessions discourage you. Looking forward to seeing more awesome videos but only after you have healed!
Holy, this could be the last swell of the season
Love your dedication Koa the way you took those harsh sessions was like a boss you really know how to turn that into a positive!! Keep doing what your doing.
Sharing the good and the bad, impressive mental strength, thanks for sharing !
0:44 I hate it when that happens lol, you are like wait im almost done and there like cya out there
Koa , I give you a lot of credit for what you doing out there ; you are one intense dude when it comes to surf and I admire your dedication and commitment stay safe!
I’m glad your ok Koa be safe out there that made me sick imagining you getting seriously injured or even dying.
HOLY S*%T KOA! You had a couple bad wipeouts prior, but 13:15 was INSANE! Be safe brother as we need you on this earth! Enjoy your sessions every week. Those POV barrels @ Rocky Point were SICK! And now it's supposed to be 5-6' @ Pipeline for the next few days so another "Final Pipeline Swell" is coming AGAIN ! :)
Dude the Bread Stick made it in one piece on that wave... Pyzel gotta make a Bread Stick now 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
Hi KOA.
Your neck mate. I broke mine while surfing. Was paralyzed in the water. Could not wave for help or call out for help. Paralyzed,face down,hoping the next wave would flip me over for air. I still surf and am 51. I have a Titanium plate and 4 X 14mm screws in my C3/C4.Such a long, hard recovery. Several surgeries.
Wow.... YOU were actually lucky with that big wipeout at Pipe.Keep charging mate and never second guess it. Just go. I love how you share the good and bad, showing good waves and wipeouts. You are keeping it real and I love this from your vids,after all....this is Livin' ! 💮🏵️💗🏄
I 💯% respect you for saying what you said after that wipeout and how you handled the entire situation. I know it's worth it for you but it's nice to see your honestly. Love watching you surf and respect all you do
“Go in and have more coffee”... “then more coffee” ... HAHA me too
Would be dope for you to talk about navigating that lineup...Seems insane with so many people on the peak. And sitting out there for 2 hours and catching one wave, is that because of the lineup or being super selective?
Love it when we see the reality. Not every session is a perfect. Great episode, and the footage from rockies was great.
Bpplus nothing worse than having a shit session, especially when you have to travel a lil while to get decent waves.
Loud bike.. "What is wrong with people?".. classic
Thanks for your honesty and realistic perspective on an incredibly demanding sport
Your POV scenes were AMAZING !!! Your wipeout...*PAINFUL* !!! But your attitude is AWESOME !!!
Brother I am so glad you’re OK that looks so vicious! God bless brother💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I've never been moved to comment on an episode before. I've watched probably all of them, and enjoyed probably all of them. Something about this one though. The highs and lows. The Aloha vibe. I could almost feel the ocean breeze from ova here in Central Illinois. Riding through the barrell POV after having you describe Koa the wind and the wave sensation...🤙 To tensing with the image of seeing Koa drop into an air death drop shocker. 😧 And those are just the off the top of my head thoughts of gratitude I wanted to express to you Koa for sharing the Aloha with us. I'm going to finally purchase some This Is Livin shirt merch to help me live an ocean mindset, living on a lake, which ain't so bad. Mahola from the middle of the mainland.
Soooo, I've been watching Pipe since the 80's and that was definitely the worst wipeout I've ever seen there. KOA!!! So stoked you made it through that one brother. Heeeeeaaaavy.
Koa glad to see you in one piece, I'm enjoy your blog make me remember my childhood in Lima - Peru.ALOHA BRO.
What an I-N-S-A-N-E wipeout buddy! Interesting to see the chronological growth of your stress to perform and "make a better session" the following day. Don't let this pressure (mainly external factors) play with your mind and, as a consequence, with your level of surf.
I hope your knee and neck will recover soon. Keep it up!
Damnnn broo!!! One of the craziest wipeouts I’ve ever seen!! I’m glad ur fine!
Jesus that was scary 😳 stay safe dude 🤙🏼 awesome video, loved the clips from your view, the blue is beautiful 😍
Yep. Good job on the truth. This will help lots of people who are too hard on themselves. Humility = right mindset. It’s all about the losses. Thanks for this.
Glad you're in one piece.... Off days suck....hard! We all have um no matter what it is we do....keep going brother!
A good reminder. Resolve all disputes. Tell those you love that you do. Dont leave stuff unsaid.....until tomorrow. And.....keep it tight.
If it was easy, every one would do it. You have insane skill, every one has a bad day at some stage, shake it off, keep inspiring us.
Glad you're safe but it's good to know everyone has bad days. I'm still working on improving bad weeks 😂. Vlog on point again and always improving boys youre killing it 🤙
Super heavy Koa, glad you're okay brotha!
“Wish me luck 🤙🏽” next clip gets absolutely destroyed
10:AM Koa: Im not a morning person
Really like your videos. Straight forward and very informative you take time to explain stuff, and youre not puffed up erogant just seem like a nice guy
Koa, keeping it real as always. Keep up the great content. Heavy wipeout, glad that you're okay! 🤙🏄
5:06/17:48 Pure Perfect Blue Texture as an All-Toned PANORAMA: I've never seen a total Scene, covering an entire Environment that has been so saturated-so enveloped and so engulfed in such totality of BLUENESS in my life! The only OBJECT missing is "BLUE BOY", accompanied with AMBER!
That was nuts, glad u didn’t get hurt, you pipe surfers are some of the bravest athletes on the planet for sure. The corporations totally under rate your sport, the whole world should know about pipeline!😎
Christopher Phelps the whole world does 😂
Pipeline kills more surfers then every break on the planet combined..It is the test of all tests..Banzai......
Thanks for the keen insights ... best VLOG out there!
Feeling alive Koa right? Sick surfing this winter. One question I could not ask on the live chat last time. Best poke bowl: Foodland or Kahuku supermarket?
Love it Koa!! Brings us tubers down to reality re what pipe can do
Keep goal guy! God bless you always!
Watching you surf looks easy but when you show what it looks like from inside the wave it looks incredibly difficult. Love the channel btw.
Amazing video!!! Loved the drama!!! Surf's for giants!!!
"They clearly don't want to surf with me," I can relate.
Every time I hear you saying "this could be the last swell of the season" it makes me feel like when those people that after an exam they say "it went really bad..." but then they get an A+.
Enjoy the grind... and good things will come eventually, but stay thankful for getting to push your mind and your body and being able to pursue your passion because that’s what living is.
I am sooo jealous of you guys on the north shore.. I would thank god everyday if I lived in such a beautiful place! 🤙
This is why you guys are great surfers on the North Shore! Humbling days at Pipe!!
We are in almost complete lockdown in the UK. But we are still allowed out to exercise solo once a day (just had to miss my first trip to the European mountains of the year ‘cos virus). Buy cycling is still my saviour. I am the world’s worst surfer(tm), but your videos are truly appreciated here. Your honesty too. I know after a whole season of cycling, I reach a point where my body and brain just says: no, stop, rest. Take it easy everyone.
"He bust his stick he shred so bad." 😂
Thanks so much for showing this. As a bad surfer i have the same experience with 2/3ft waves!
Great to see POV added!
Wow great effort on that wave. Almost!!! Love that camera angle from the channel.
Thanks for the vlogs 🙌🏽👌🏽
That was spectacular dude... 4-5 times over head closeout pipeline Glad you live to see another day and we live to see another vlog!
Glad you're ok, bro. You and the crew are making history right now. It's like watching Gerry Lopez, Rory Russell, and Jeff Crawford, times 30 with the crew you guys have.
i remember this happening last year... just catching up on all your vids... ! heavy...!
I grew up surfing the north shore of Maui. I came to Montana and almost drowned in a mellow river. Mother Nature humbled my over confidence of water like nothing. Brush it off but know your place... Awesome video as always 👌🏻
Amazing watching you get barreled man, it literally bought a tear to my eye, missing being in the water so much! I'm a sh*t surfer but love the water and we're on total lockdown here in the UK still. Plus it's beautiful and sunny, the best surfing weather. Thank you for sharing! I got to live vicariously through you for a few minutes :-)
Gonna be a Wipeout reel of a life time lol 😂 glad u ok Bru
Slow down on the Coffee! lol Love how you show, the bad days too. 👍
Kudos for staying in the water after that gnarly wipeout!
your stance and smooth style on tha lefts at Rocky point remind of how your dad used to rip back in the day. Identical style, power, flow , . He taught u well good style in the tube
Yeah that would have killed me for sure. How the board survived is also amazing.
Bring more POV videos like Nate is doing, its awesome
You're a fuc*ing beast dude. That would've killed a mere normal man. Keep grinding 💪
Koa boy that's a life lesson in everything 🤙.
great episode again! stay safe and greetings from the islands of the netherlands
That’s was one of the worst wipeouts I’ve ever seen, brought chills to my spine, glad u were able 2 walk away from that!
that was brutal...that lip was right at your heels, split second behind, your guardian angle was onboard that time.....glad you're OK brother...
“Redemption session no Redemption Day!.” I had me rolling 😂.More like D Day tho!🤯 WILDDDD!!! Glad ur okay🤙🏾
crazy that you kept surfing after that wipeout... you are one hard man
Just received my new hoodie and tshirt .love them thx love the vids. 🤙🏼 which quicksilver cap is that? With the logo on the inside of the bill?
