Bodyboarding / surfing waves on reefs, in remote locations around Australia and Bali. I love both novelty and big waves! With everything that's going on in the world right now, there's nothing like getting into some waves and surf to take us away from it all. Self-isolation in some deep barrels is a valid way of social distancing!
I love exploring new waves in new locations and I love bring my viewers along my journey. Sometimes it get's sketchy as some of the waves I surf (shallow reefs, dry reefs, deep ocean slabs) get pretty gnarly.

I won’t ever have the pleasure of being washed over the reef at the Island.... with age i got wisdom 😂
11:30 Woah how did he make that reverse
I was surprised to see there were several surfers out that day that really weren't that talented. This would be one of the LAST places I'd paddle out if I didn't feel I had excellent skills and tuberiding abilities.
yeah true
20:11 Was that rehearsed?
25:12 What happened here?
At 25:13 the guy on the black board got angry at the the guy on the pink board even though he cut the pink guy off like wth is wrong with some peeps
Braulio Deans pink guy dropped in on black guy that’s why he mad
Who ever is deeper on the wave gets right away. Surf etiquette.
@@AfroAttack pink guy had right away bruv
@@accordingtopanz1588 maybe he dropped in on him before
Pink board guy actually dropped in on a boog who was deeper, so the boog actually had right of way but the pink guy went anyway. Bad form all round.

first
Hope you have a speedy recovery can’t wait to see you back out there 🤙
Yianni L
Ur gay
Wait what happened to him?
Surfer Dude y
yeah
25:09 Really?? That made me happy the fact he made it...
Is a friend
@@pepavillargarcia9341 doesn' seem like it theyre prety aggro afterwards
They aren't friends 😫 definitely not now
There was some bickering but they calmed down once they got back in the line up. The sets didn't give them time to continue scrapping
What was the guys problem who dropped in? Normally the aggressor is the one being dropped in on.
i love how bodyboarders will share a wave but as soon as you put a surfer in there it gets hairy....
need some play by play commentary on these waves!!!
Good stuff willy, I think this and similar videos from SOB are showing people like something different from the loud music/ fast cut "pro" videos.
Glad you liked it, thank you sir!
I am from russia and I really like to bodyboard
This makes me fill this passion and spirit
That’s so cool, I’ve always wondered if you guys have good waves over there. Any iconic spots over there??
Lincoln LaMour we have some in Sochi (Black Sea), there are also some close to Saint Petersburg, but I can’t say that they are iconic. Russian surfers usually fly to Bali or to Portugal
KOSTYA Sorokin Can confirm!
I meet heaps of Russians when I visit Bali, they rip!! Keep at it bro yeww ♥️
Willy POV 💪💪💪
I watched the first ever person surf Shark Island from my bedroom window. His name was Darren Sykes if my memory serves me well. It would have been about 1968.
I bet that real estate is worth some dosh now!!!!
Bro I recently found your channel again because I haven’t watched since you took a break and I am so happy I found it
Yeah again crap Island and all of them are going for guaranteed rock scrapes. The boogies at least have flippers on so they can stand without getting shredded. Stupidly crowded and for what?
Bald Boogieboarders Burning Everyone should be your next title.
yeah!
Great footage, it'd be awesome if you could this second perspective when you're out there again :)
epic
Nice filming, you need to talk more tho :)👌🏼🔥🙌🏻
Great footage Willy.
Always amazing to see the island firing.
Keep up the great work ..yew
Epic day!
Looks heavy!
An average to good surfer out shark Island really is an ugly sight.
Keep up the good work Willy
first
Geez dropped alot since Thursday, thanks mate for the footage
Great video
Love povs!
that looked small, but fun i guess
Should have gone out there Willy
Hey man, you're a big inspiration for me! Keep up the hard work and get better!
me too!
Hey Willy hope you're keeping strong in your convalescence. Got a question that you or anyone are welcome to answer: PP or PE core? Regardless of having read up extensively on the 2 mains i'm still indecisive. Where I live in South Africa, water temps range from extremes of 16 to 23 degC. I've read that PE's tend to soften out above the aforementioned max temp so am slightly concerned should we go above the anomaly and add to that the reduced shelf-life. Im an amateur, barrel-mutant popping (trying with varied success) the odd spin here and there when the wave decides to soften out. BBKing is not an option as they're not delivering to SA so a dual-core is out of the question - none of the online stores here seem to offer that option.
Please guys, I plan to place my order on Monday/Tuesday so some counsel is more than welcome.
I have bodyboarded 27year and lived in waters that are 7 to 17c all my life. I have ridden since back in the stringerless/channelless days and have always preferred PP, they are stiffer and faster. I have no problems with hard bottom turns in 7c water. I have tried a couple of PE boards over the years and just found them flexy/soft and slow and of no benefit. I would 100% ride PP in 16 to 23c. If I was in SA I would get a snipper with the ISS and change out stringers to dial it in.
Like krusher said I go PP for all the same reasons. Faster and more durable -- in fact I hear it's common for SA BB to buy PP because South Africans bodyboarders prefer to buy boards that last them as long as possible -- and PP is the board for that
Thanks guys. Yeah a friend got back to me and said PP all the way.
If you're able to find a PP with 1.9 lb density kinetic core - they're most suited for the warmer sea temps. ( The 1.2 lb for cooler sea temps.)
Good vid hope recovery’s going well for you man
yeah
Some great waves out there. I hope you're healing up well.
what happend?
Paradise!!
epic
Wait till it hits 18 ft.
Fuck yeah 😊
So sick watching raw footage. Makes me wanna tackle it. Even with the crowds.
Ballard ripping
Surprised to not see fights. F-ing crowded and snakes every where. At my local there be some serious scraps. Good waves though
Well done ,no bullshit music ,or editing ,slow motion shit, just let the waves do the talking , thumbs up
hi
I applaud the guys who charge this place- from what ive seen its an unpredictable sketchy slab- that end section is $ tho when it stays open-🤙
Si esa hola no es la del frontón entonces es la hermana gemela 🤔😁😁, para tanta gente en el pico no hubo sino medio encontronazo, podemos dar por muy buena la convivencia de esa hora ese día entre locales y extracomunitarios. 😂😂😂😂😭. Lo digo de basilon pero es la verdad, los canarios me darán la razón. Only local Hernano, solo entrenamientos de campeonatos y eventos, de Resto cada uno a buscarse su sitio. Lo q faltaba también nos quiten las olas. 😘😘😘❤️❤️. Es bromita, mientras se respete el turno y la preferencia, están bienvenidos en este pico y en todos de canarias. Beneharo Delgado. ( Tenerife ).
Stoked🤙🏾
stoked!!!
Yeeeoooiwwwiii
Why are those kooks dropping in on dave Ballard !!! That’s balls
Good job Willy, excellent footage. Some good waves and bad vibes.
even Barnaby Joyce surfed it that day he reckons
ballard, percy, purcell or smith still exist?
Dream wave
foto!
This is so perfect
epic
whos getting lots of waves with the shiny white head?
25:14 What's black board's problem?? 😖
Juan owns shark island 👀😂
#partywaves0:55
Can anyone please explain to me why he just bailed at 8:08 like that, like he literally went head first backwards on purpose, seems more painful than wiping out
He head dived his body out through the back of the wave punch out back and let his board go so the buoyancy of it did not drag him over the falls.
I’ve been watching your videos for a very long time. I like the ocean and I try to practice body boarding a lot. Have a fast recovery 👍
yeah
Sick waves looks fun
Sick 🤙
sick!
Every time u post I get so excited 😆 keep up the good work bro 🤙🏽
Where is willy??? we need more
looks like another fun small day...
amazing
watermelon
Second
second
is this the one in the harbour just off rose bay wharf
nah off Cronulla point mate
Ballard and Rissole still the OGs at the Island
yeah
The fact that these people are going out here putting their life on the line is so inspirational. It makes me want to just go out and shred. Does anyone else feel this way?
It’s not war...putting their life’s on the line. Smh
richie rich it’s essentially war (not being serious if ya couldn’t tell)
@@richierich6231 thank you for your service, however, no need to flaunt it in everybodies faces. Its metaphorical
So impressed with the "few dozen brave souls who held on for dear life". Whew, I was scared for a minute.
And the "drop-in that lead two surfers to physical contact... See what happens next". Must be in the next video.
Love the dramatic written description, but video was not that at all.
Yew
yeah!!!
Heavy..?? it's like 3 foot out there..??
This is like if padang padang was a right
This is so soothing to watch! Get those stand up surfers out of the line up!
Ooh yea shark island I’m from Hawaii and made the trip out there with my brothers and honestly I wish it was a little bigger, got some heavy 13ft faces at the max but some 20-25fters woulda been perfect. Definitely wish a speedy recovery Willy man and stay stoked that you even can go to the beach in these quarantine times! 🤙🤙🤙
🧢
I can't imagine 20-25ft island that would be deathhhh haha
Willy POV just kinda reminds me of pipe, and I couldn’t really get the full barrel i wanted. Still one of my fav bodyboarding spots tho 👌👌🏿
