Generated by AI or something, def text to speech, lol
Nailed it
Yes it was created by AI
@@Surfhandbook Dude, no way the sound of your voice is worse than AI. Next time just narrate it yourself.
The narration is friggin brutal, can’t they find a person who can actually narrate. Made it 10 seconds
Sorry sir, it was my first video :( I will do better!
The first country you mention is called Namibia not Nambia.
@@Surfhandbook don’t listen
That's cuz it's a bot not a person.
I know my Language English is a beautiful language , its gets totally mangled by foriegners and Americans it makes me cringe
Faro Pacasmayo, near chicama is insanely long.
Caught Scorpion Bay about 8 years ago. Pretty damn perfect. Old guys from Santa Barbara had it wired. They'd pick their buddies up on the 4 wheelers and blaze them to the top of the point meanwhile we walked. Pretty funny
Haha that is pretty cool! Good to have a friend willing to do the shuttling
Sounds epic! Super jealous from locked down New Zealand. I’d give anything to ride a 50m wave right now, let alone over a mile!!! 😊
Did you notice the photo they had for Scorpion Bay wasn't even Scorpion Bay?
@@MrDarilon23 true, it's a right and not breaking off a flat sand point.
The picture is old, the sand has been mostly washed away and the water has moved up to sand dunes. Also, they showed the 1st point break in the picture, but he was describing 3rd to 2nd point.
Noosa occasionally (8'+) links up to a kilometer or more.
Should include Box Head on the NSW Central Coast. Breaks a few times a year and on a reasonable swell will go for up to 800 metres, further on a big swell. A great wave when it's on even throwing up long tube rides on a mid to low outgoing tide.
I surfed a left point in Mainland Mexico, it was at least 400+ meters long and minimal crowd 5 guys maybe.. I couldn't imagine riding a wave 4x that long.... but would love to try though!
Endurance test
I surfed a wave that started at Pleasure Point, Santa Cruz and went all the way past the Hook, easily 1 mile. It was about head high, rt . Nice glassy day. Took me over an hour to walk back to my truck .
An hour well worth it though
Yes
Wow. That sounds like an epic ride! Talk about jelly legs after that wave!!!🤣
There is a story of Duke Kahanamoku riding a wave from over a mile off Waikiki beach for over a mile. The location was called Castles and break was named steamer lane because it was so close to the shipping lanes. Kahanamoku estimated the wave was over 30 feet when it first broke. The Hawaiian name for this place is Kalehuawehe and is the holy grail of Oahu south shore surfing.
Then they built hotels and catered to tourism and ruined that break
@@realmorgan3075 A hotel on the beach ruined 30 foot Castles that breaks out by the shipping lanes? I don't think so. The thing that ruined that break is it only happens once every 100 years, if the story isn't baloney to start with.
@@Randsurfer those waves used to be able to be ridden to shore. Shipping lanes? This wasn't some urban harbor, the peak wasn't miles offshore, it was and still is a long paddle from shore, the waves no longer connect like they used to.
@@realmorgan3075 It was Lee Boy who started this thread talking about shipping lanes and "Steamer Lane", so take it up with him.
The hotel development has no effect on Castles. Castles is a big wave spot that breaks way offshore, and very rarely. It supposedly can connect to outside Publics and then all the way to the beach between Public's and The Wall. There is no development hindering that.
Yeh,don't forget little old New Zealand me mate. Raglan can link up from outside indicators/ Whale and onto Manu Bay. Plus Shipwrecks up Ahipara on the west coast. Amazing lefts.
Yes, both very very long left handers.
It's usually only quite small, but the right at Riverton Rocks, way down south. On a good day it's got to be 1km.
How big does it need to be for that IV been wanting to chase it like that but never been able to get it
never your dreaming
I was gonna comment a spot, but youll just have to take my word for it since probably 50 people be there
Imsouane, Morroco
Great video!
Nice video
Shipwrecks in NZ.....and Raglan of course.

What about raglan New Zealand mannnn, you missed that one
Sorry yes, sorry about forgetting New Zealand :*(
Absolutely agree with you there champ.
IVe seen outside indicators break through whale bay and onto manu bay.
Beautiful.
One wave that doesn't get a lot of credit, is in the south shore of Maui. It's not a very consistent wave, and really only comes to life around 3 times a year. But when it is truly on, it can take 20 minutes to walk back up to the paddle out spot. If you actually paddle all the way back out, it can take a full hour. I'd name the spot, but it's never been crowded. So I'm not gonna drop the name. If you know what I'm talking about, you know what I'm talking about.
Maalea or honolua
@@triggeringusingreality4934 Honolula is a lot more consistent. But yes, also world class. Especially when you get one all the way from subs, to keiki bowls.
@@triggeringusingreality4934 but the spot I'm talking about isn't t either of the ones you mentioned. And if you think of it, don't mention the name. Because I've never seen more than 8 guys out at the spot I'm talking about, and wanna keep it that way as long as we can.
Dumps is OK, but 1/10 the length of some of the waves listed here!
@@eddyb6790 not talking about dumps
Noosa Heads getting rides over a km at the moment, the sand has built up perfectly, just a matter of waiting for the swell to get into the bays and then navigating the crowd which is comparable to the superbank, but with longboarders
Not sure of proper spelling, but a left hand point break in Mainland Mexico, Montanchan Bay. Very long rides!
"The wall"in mexico,Rincon nor cal ,"C" street in ventura(swell dir.and tide dependent)
All good long waves but not even close to the longest
Imessouane , Morroco, 700m long
Cool, I will look into it!

Funny you should say that Francis I was thinking that before I looked at the comments though I have never seen all the points line up together at raglan it would have to be a huge swell
That AI voice is a shocker 😂
Sorry :( Next one I will use mine and then you let me know!
No Raglan in NZ ?
Yes, I forgot :(
ruclips.net/video/RNcKkLPldwM/видео.html
Don't forget Punta Roca, El Salvador. Also, most right hand points in the South Oaxaca area of Mexico would make the grade for this as well. Seems like this video needed "the top 20 longest waves on the planet" I feel blessed to have surfed a few of them!
Raglan new Zealand north Island.
Just south of Rincon is a place called Pietas Point. We caught it, more than once, on the right North swell & all of the sections connected, making the ride a mile long - we measured it with our car afterwards.
are you out of your damned mind
kook
I could see that. It needs to be a straight west and low tide
@@helloitsmehb kooks group together
@@helloitsmehb exactly
Imsouane the bay preduces also very long waves.

what is wrrrbleong with your voise?
no doubt... I think its a machine voice, IA
@@jeffhartwig5283 A damn crappy IA!
Inch reefs, Kerry, Ireland. 1.5 km right hander
Cool, Ill take a look!
Boca Barranca, Costa Rica..
con ese crowdazo espantoso
Muy buena, pero mucha mierd@!!!
O
Insane wave. Caught it once breaking from in front ot the river all the way to the pier. Had to kick out halfway catch your breath then get another one for the rest of the way.
ruclips.net/video/RNcKkLPldwM/видео.html
Snapper although the one of the longest it’s also probably the most crowded break in the world. But I guess when one of the most perfect waves is situated in front of the top surfing countries tourist beach city then it’s going to be
Surfed Pavones 30 years ago and caught it perfect and breaking all the way past the Cantina. Amazing left. Stop and pick up a taco and beer for the walk back.
@@jcd-k2s And they were selling tacos in Costa Rica?
Chicama , all years +-
san blas,mexico should also be on that list
perfect long right hander
Matachen bay. Surfed it when I was a young man & caught a day when the three points connected on a good swell. Legs got tired from the long rides...It was Heaven
No no no! Please don't tell. It's a horrible place and super dangerous. The locals are cannibals and the no seeums will eat you alive.
Surfed Matachen in 1973 for three months. The outer two points were not as long, but less crowded--Stoners and Little Stoners. When they hooked up you could easily ride for 300 yards. The South side of Matachen had a great left point as well.
Lived in San Blas for four months in the early 70's. Surfed Matachen Bay every day. The break is 'golden'!
Was there in 1980 a couple months with a VW camper.
yeah made to about 1:20 mark before i ended the video ,, robotic vice just ruined it for me
Uluwatu when it connects anchor point scottshead
Uluwatu is not even 500 meters dude
@@guslemo2012 yeah dude! I would say easily 500 mtrs on the right day
ruclips.net/video/UdDx4UGlJww/видео.html
@@guslemo2012 would say it is around 600-800 mtrs

I hear noosa gets some long rides
Playas, Ecuador. 3+ mi Rights..
Where TF is Nam-bia? You mean Namibia.
Sorry, yes a typo. I will do better next time
Skelleton bay is at the very start
Raglan is missing
Peaks to shipwreck N Z on its day and possibly start further back on rare occasions.
Talk about dumbing ourselves down. Computer robot narrator.
Nah, I'm not telling.
I like your approach!! Why would you tell the world via RUclips about any wave you know and love that might force people to flock from all over the country/planet to surf it!!?? Especially if it’s not already well known!! I mean Wtf is wrong with you!!?? Not you obviously. Well played my friend!! Keep those secrets close! Or next thing you know, there’ll be a surf resort there and a permanent crowd ruining what was once an epic secret or semi secret spot!! 🤫 🤐🙏🏻🤙🏻😊 Enjoy it while you can before it’s overrun like every other spot on the planet is these days!!🤙🏻
Pavones? Chicama? seems a short list you've made there
ruclips.net/video/RNcKkLPldwM/видео.html
Nazare - Portugal
Pacasmayo Perú the most longer
Ok, will check it out!
Imsouane Morocco
Something about skeleton Bay seems spooky!
El Tunco - El Salvador! How can you leave that one out?!?!?!
I will check it out! Thank you!
What u Mantenchen?
I have a very large family so a wave goodbye 👋 can take up to 5 minutes!
Ok will add you to the next list! Thanks Alan B
1:44 IT IS CALLED "SAN JUANICO", DAMNIT. Btw, there was a horrible shift in the sand banks due to recent hurricanes in the past 2 years, and the waves there are terrible now. Don't go to Baja California. Thanks. mplr
Good advice, thank you!
Zambezi river
Matanchen Bay, San Blas Mexico
Ah, and pacasmayo Peru , as long as chicama , better wave .
Noted
i have surfed my longest wave in my life in Pacasmayo not in Chicama
What about all the other loooonnnnngggg waves in the world?

Why not just re-do the video with your voice, and include NZ?
Will do a part 2 :)
jAWS. break off Maui.if one survives. Very dangerous
Ship wreck bay New Zealand 3km long
Stephen Hawking gone into narrating surf videos has he?
Missed Indicators off this list
He wasn't cheap
@@Surfhandbook Ha! I bet!
Shipwreck bay New Zealand 1.5km
Its Namibia not Nambia lololol
I don't watch videos with robo voices.
Thanks for telling us that!
Don’t watch videos w computer Narrators
Yeah what’s up with that!!?? I can’t stand computer generated voices! It’s just so weird!!
What is this trend with robot narration?! I hear it everywhere and it's awful every single time.
Just read it! Turn that silly computer voice off.
Yeah the commentary is dog water.
I think you are being too generous
Hahahahahahaha.........need to replace the cral computer generated voice with an actual human (or hu-women) voice! LoL!!!
Robovoice unbearable
Boring
That hurts:(
