Picture Perfect Surf for Aloha Friday in ALASKA

So far this surfing adventure in Alaska has taken us to big surf, novelty waves, a moraine & some bumpy seas, but we've yet to see the dreams of clean surf, until today! We woke up this morning to picture perfect surf for Aloha Friday here in Alaska! Thanks to everyone who has supported this adventure of mine for so long FOR THE DREAM!!! - Ben

This trip encompasses everything that sets Ben apart. No matter where he goes he is so stoked and grateful for every wave, every cup of coffee, every adventure, big or small. He surrounds himself with good people and positive vibes. He’s not a showman, a show off or an egomaniac. Just a humble dude living the dream.

[@jasontrojnar8791]

This is what it takes to get uncrowded surf. That's a lot of work but what a great crew! Looks like everyone finally getting comfortable on the boat.

[@wagizzidy]

Dude. Next level. Jaw dropping gorgeous scenery. I’m in the navy so I got all romantic/nostalgic about hot coffee in the morning on a boat in cold water. How good do you sleep on a rocking boat in a warm rack? It’s like the womb, right!?! Best sleep ever for me when under way. Hope it’s the same for you, even with the bittersweetness of being away from your lady. I’ve been there. And then you braving skull cracking cold conditions to score rad waves in God’s country… Thanks for what you do, Ben. Living vicariously through the videos. Much appreciated.

[@xisotopex]

rocked to sleep in the cradle of the deep... I remember wedging pillows in my rack and a net so I wouldnt roll out in heavy seas... and nothing like a cigarette and a coffee on deck getting ready for the 0000 watch...

[@emisurfchannel2280]

Masterpiece

[@farmerkevin]

I've been watching surf adventures for 30 years , this is one of the most magical I've ever seen. Wow. Keep up the great work.

[@midliferising]

Excellent vlog! I love the Alaska vlogs!! You showed the world the beauty of surfing even in the cold environment!!

[@waynebetts9074]

No. 1 Surf and Life blog. Ben is the stoke.

[@Justin-pr6go]

I was in the USCG, the kitchen is called the galley on board, or mess deck.

[@30yearoldgrom]

Yeeew!!!! Aloha 🌺🍍🤙... Everyday is Aloha vibe in Gravy's company. This trip has been amazing viewing. Can't wait to see what the next adventure has to hold. Stay awesome bro and keeping on pushing the boundaries of stoke.🙌🙌🙌🤜🍍🤛

[@kirktaylor4954]

great effort BG - obviously the hyper flex suits are effective and also believe in the dream, so yes, worthy of support! For the Dream!

[@charlesward8196]

Love the shirt and the slack-key guitar music. Hawaii with glaciers.

Oh man what a great boat. The captain runs a clean tight ship. 🤙🏼

[@troytaylor5824]

Besides surfing charters, what other business does the "Milo" entertain? Did anyone catch any, fish to eat? Thank you for sponsoring Ben's Alaska trip @hyperflexusa wetsuits. Who's ready for warmer water!? For the Dream!🍍😎

[@iLurq]

[@zak-a-roo264]

Next time you're in NH ,there are 3 or 4 moraines with a few dreamy waves around them , one is a few hundred yards north of Rye Rocks.

[@mcmtb2519]

great to see new guy JT get a wave!!!!

[@WM_904]

Good to see JT in a wetsuit this time. Guess he learned his lesson from the first ice bath without one 😂 awesome video guys!! Absolutely loving this Alaska trip 🤙🤙

[@eganc1976]

El Freeze'o?

[@WM_904]

[@nicscharing]

What a great surf spot, theres so many good spots accross the world in obscure locations, so cool to see one

[@erichowey2196]

Still lovin' the vlogs, Ben! Alaska looks amazing. I'd go and do this type of trip there, it's perfect.

[@flyingpig7203]

Looks like a lot of fun Ben! Glad you’re getting good waves

[@sonnyrico]

I could see that spot being really good on a big swell and the right conditions

[@sisukonrad6325]

i love the combination::Alaska but hawian music🤣

[@henriquevila9129]

[@ubroc]

Best episode ever.

Stoked!!

[@MrHeavyduty007]

BRAVO Dr.!!

[@kmrnm10]

This is awesome

[@crazyladyadventures7467]

You mean I don't have to leave Alaska to go surfing. I don't associate surfing with cold weather and mud flats.. however, as long as they had fun that's all that matters.

[@DanMcmonigle-qg8ni]

Should be an award for best music /surf syncing

[@nickdango2389]

ALOHA SNACKBAR!!!!!!!!!

[@zak-a-roo264]

Those appear to be wolverine tracks !!!

[@connorm3457]

Growing up “Islands”, I absolutely hate the cold. At 60 yrs old, and about ~10% bf, I need a 5/4mm in central Ca. I have more disdain for crowds, than hypothermia. This looks waaay worth donning more rubber. Awesome Brah!💪🤙🤙🤙

[@soakedandstoked3530]

rad video ben

[@fullynuking]

For the dream

[@mattkaylor6212]

Looks as cold as our Beloved Bells - lol 🤙🦘

[@williamturner1441]

I was concerned one of you guys was going to face plant into a under water bolder. Could you clearly see them as you were surfing?

[@yourmom-5150]

finally good surf

[@thejakelinden]

OAT MILK?! CMON BENNY!

[@flyingfisherman100]

Awww a nice reliable screaming Jimmy. Most reliable engine ever built. Where are you guys in the wilds of AK?

[@skinrat81374]

Sweet shots! You should start cross steppin!

[@xisotopex]

what are the top hyperflex suits? I had one about 8 or so years ago, and it was great.... kept me toasty through at least one 45 degree east coast winter...

[@JwallzMTB]

what a dream

[@JayJay-ft9zu]

Greetings from Seaside Park NJ, 👍👍

[@ExploringTheWestCoast]

Yewwww 🤙

[@sisukonrad6325]

ALOHA🤙

[@kylewattssurfing3266]

Epppiccc bango or guitar or whatever music @4:24

[@TheFletchandSebShow]

I'm not for naming surf breaks, generally speaking, but 28 miles from the ocean is that impressive, as a surf geek, I'd like to see the map...

[@xisotopex]

its crazy how it wraps in there, I made a comment about how narrow the mouth of that fjord is.... it must have been pretty big outside... looking at a chart you would generally try to find the most exposed locations, depending on swell direction and primary wind direction... but I have been very surprised before... of course I live someplace that is completely exposed to almost all possible swell directions, but because its the east coast, it sucks most of the time regardless lol

[@TAStormChasing]

Buttery

[@r.d.thomas5253]

Blair rips...🤙👍

[@Waterweather]

Whats Up Mike Mccune, In SE, Great surf out here access by SKI!!!

[@doodooswirl]

My balls shriveled just from watching this 🥶 it’s the stoke that keeps ya warm! Ya Ben 🤙🏽

[@scarletbegonias2359]

Whoooo

[@samuelfox3997]

Yew!

[@MikeBusby3773]

This is killing me to watch! Best surf session of my life was a bear glacier mission! I want to go back so bad, but it takes money and gear :(

[@jarredtremain4644]

Awesome holiday fella's. Ben you said on boat 2nd day in clip that it wouldn't be as big as 1st day. How? 1st day didn't even look like a wave. 2nd it was firing 5x as big. Sic effort crazy fun. Avagud1

[@derekjustin09]

I want that shirt

[@ahbwisurfnpaddle]

STOKE !

[@bunkerspeckles4668]

Is there an Australian distributor for Hyperflex?

[@chrisvolk2587]

🤙🏻

[@5635randy]

Things we are curious about. Water Temp Air Temp. Daily cost for expedition boat and name of company

[@scottmcwave9479]

Ben mentioned the temp but yes I’d like to know the cost!

[@dannyshaw8170]
