    cool to see your accomplishment is so well acknowledged by your peers.
    you’re returning soul surfing to a ‘professional’ standard not seen since the 70’s!
    truly inspirational session. i would have padded out next to you, but not alone!
    hats off to the lone ranger!

    This session that nate so nonchalantly approached solidified him as the gnarliest surfer on the planet. I remember hearing you mention surfing slabs alone as the next frontier and the most extreme slabs. Well... I think you are onto something.

    Nathan Florence, you're a phenomenon. Even among so many incredible current wave riders. Highest quality riding, worldwide breaks ridden, photographed with skill and excellent equipment and, finally, edited and posted online.
    Because of all the above, surfers and non surfers, alike, get to see some amazing things on some amazing waves.
    For the record, of all the jaw dropping rides of yours, a barrel you made at Mullaghmore is the one that makes this old wave rider shout, "No way!!!"
    Mahalo.
