Surf Vlog Firewire Mashup Raw Footage

- I surfed an spot down south who's name I cannot utter, it is Voldemort of surf breaks. You'll probably recognize it though. I'm kidding by the way.
The footage is my entire session from start to finish. I sped up the parts where I'm paddling and sitting but will play in real time myself positioning, catching, and surfing the wave. While the session plays out, I have two stories for you. One might be a little boring, the second one isn't. Let me know if you like this type of content. If you don't want to listen to the stories or you hate my voice, just mute it. :) Watching the entire session is helpful if you are at this stage of progression.
For beginners and intermediates, pay attention to me moving around and also fighting the current. There is a drift north so you will see me constantly paddling south. But in doing so, I'm being very proactive. I don't ever wait for waves to come to me, you have to position yourself to maximize the return on investment. But also having said that, I did miss the best wave by moving too far south at one point. :( Net win though, caught a few open faces.

I like the format thanks for sharing. It’s normal to be nervous before a performance! 😅
Also, I had to do CPR on a guy once by the side of the road. He also didn’t make it. Very heavy, I struggled to flip him over. It’s something you don’t forget.
Glad you caught some nice waves in this hellish flat summer
Thanks so much for posting this! As a fellow 5'4 Mashup owner I've been debating what to do for the lower end (uber grovel). Your wave at 11:02 makes me think this board can do a little bit of uber grovel if I'm feeling more energetic that day and can paddle harder. On paper looking at that wave I would have been thinking I need a sweet potato 2 (which I sold unfortunately) but you rode it well and did a turn at the end! I'll probably skip the Machadocado idea after seeing this and your other video on the Machadocado.
Really enjoyed this and your talk over. Congrats on entering in the comp! Wild on the save though
Heavy stories bro…. U did your best to save that guy. Much respect🤙
Thom tells the best stories.Thank god his daughters don't choke like their dad.
Lol
I like the format. Keep it doing, relatively low effort compared to a review and it's a fun relaxing watch.
Also can't believe you only ever seem to get waves under waist high. Your stoke is admirable.
LOL, yeah, it's funny cuz just south of us, about 100 yrds it was 2x as big but they were all rights. haha I should probably start going right.
Great footage. Love the format. I just picked up a used Mashup and I'm making sections here in Uluwatu that rarely make. So stoked! Your a great story teller. Very personable and relatable. And holy sh.... what a story!
Great surfing and stories. I have been riding the new futures blackstix large pivot on my mashup and have been loving it. Cya out there sometime! What size is your mashup again?
I am on the 5'4. So glad I surfed it.
Would be great if you could do on the FRK Swallow, to see how it compares against the FRK+ and Sci Fi 2
Definitely want to. I actually want to put it up against my Sharpeye FT which is my current favorite performance board. I'm wondering if the FRK swallow is similar. FRK swallow at the same length, 5'8, is 2 liters more. As for comparing it to the FRK and FRK Plus, I already know I'll like it better because I just prefer swallows at the moment
I like the stories and watching you surf combo!
That second story was heavy bro! You’re a hero for even trying. Can def see how that was traumatic. Also - thanks for the raw footage. You got me all psyched to surf waist high bolsa tomorrow morning lol.
How machado boards work in overhead waves?
depends on how much overhead. head high is fin and if you have the skill, Like Rob, then you could easily surf well overhead. I think I saw Rob surfing it in 3+ overhead.
Mashup crew for life
Oh man you should do a podcast.Thanks for the raw footage and great stories, you did your best to save that guy.
I agree. Thom did well on the basis podcast. I recommend checking it out.
This was a nice change of pace 🤙, liked the stories and also watching you move around searching for positions helps me. Positioning is probably my biggest weakness right now.
I enjoyed the stories and full session footage. Thanks for sharing! 🤙🏼
Great video. Good to watch it raw. Nice stories Tommy. Thanks for sharing
great story man! loved listening to this while watching the session.
My favorite video of yours so far. Hope you post more of these, thanks!
Thanks for the stories. What kind of camera setup do you use for your vids if you don't mind my asking?
Just a Soloshot 3+. It is hit or miss. Most of the time it works great
Thanks!
thank you so much. really appreciate it. :)
I'm excited for the day when I see you make one of those airs! 🤙
Coooooool stories!!
✌️😎✌️
👍
I entered a military dependent surf contest at 15 won my heat for the advancement and the judge said let's have a repeat tomorrow for the better swell vs today's crap and I said ok ....... the next day I didn't advance and to top it off they announce my name wrong on the overhead PA system ...... lol
Anyway never competed again and focused on free surf vs. my brother competing in the NSSA on Oahu. I for one am an introvert hence my choice with surfing, piano and guitar playing. Crazy how introvert people like Curren and Simmers shine in the public eye!
Thank you for this content! ❤
I'm a huge introvert as well... It's funny because those that know me think I'm not but they don't realize that I'm already really close to them and comfortable. They don't remember the beginning of our friendship. Having this channel has been odd with my introversion. I'm always jealous of my friends that can go anywhere and talk to anyone and within minutes become friends. Wish I had that skill. haha
@ThomyeSurfs me and you would make best friends for sure ....... hey speaking of which I blew the girl thing too SO SO many times lol. I've always said the aggressive ones get the best of me time and time again lol. Public speaking is another nightmare too even though I had to take speech a full year in college back in the day it never helped! Kudos on your journey here, you seem to have found your calling. My family circle always wanted me to do a finance channel or social media but I just do texting lol.
Wow.... This is surfing after dark. Thanks for sharing. The second story was very sad.
What spot is that bro?
You’re a great storyteller Tommy! Fun surfing with you that day you filmed this. Love the content.
ditto bro. hopefully if I can live up to my own expectations, I'll try and get down there once a month. I'll hit you up.
@@ThomyeSurfs I saw myself and Christy on some of that footage. Love your surfing man.
@@Lunas_On_The_Loose next time, i'll slow it up and send it up so I can get everyone's waves and not just mine. The issue of course is that others have to be in frame since the camera wont' track them.
Thanks for sharing 🙏
I had a similar experience with a swimmer. I was paddling out at South Maroubra in Sydney and I just happened to see a hand pop out of the water. I thought someone was waving to their friends….I paddled over and saw this guy’s face under water. I dragged him on my board. His face was grey. He was heavy and it ook me ages to get him in and we were only 20 metres from the sand bank.
After the surf I had to write the experience down to decompress as it affected me later. I take my hat off to all those life guards who save people every day. Thanks again for sharing your experience. Love watching your videos.
2+1 fins in this video?
Yes. NVS Taylor Knox with his stabilizer
