I love the pov paddleouts and rides. I'm old with a broken back and a bad heart. I grew up surfing from the 80's - 2010. Got in a head on collision with a guy that had epilepsy and had a seizure while driving....lost everything as a result. I'm just glad I'm alive and able to still surf vicariously through your vids. Your helping this old man out more than any pain pills or psychiatrist ever did. Everytime I see a new upload from your channel....I'm on it like a dawn patrol back in the day ! Thanks again for all you do...and may God bless you and yours !

I quit surfing in 2014. I've also got a back problem and a neck injury, plus my shoulders are both blown out from paddling for a good 20 yrs long surf career (volunteer job, no income).

I've told Nate a similar story. I keep getting hit by idiots.. I had my c-spine replaced last year.. can't get any help with disability. I'm too young.. but my bones sure aren't. Take some good vitamins, if you can. Laird Hamilton's functional mushroom coffee creamers are great. Host defense makes an anti-stress & anti-fatigue that are great for depression. Better than crappy pills! I'll be praying for you!✌️❤

@@vickryanI'm in the same boat. I bought Laird Hamilton's functional mushroom coffee creamer with my food money.. very helpful. Gives me energy to start the day, especially when I'm sad. My c-spine was replaced July 2023.. I've been worse off ever since. Depressed because it's hard to function. I miss working like a normal person & helping people.😢 🤙❤️🌊✌️ Hang in there.. keep your head up

for perspective... 1. no one out 2.ivan is one of the best pipeline surfers in the world and can hardly find a surfable wave. 3. nate so comfortable in ledging slabs loved by boogie boarders how good is nathan florence? what a great life for these brothers, and a remarkable blessing to be able to follow their adventures. long live the florence slab tour!

Most vids, the waves don’t look too menacing.. that’s bc we’re watching through a screen. Everytime I watch these POV’s I am reminded not only of his world class skill, and his ability to make those waves seem light work, but that these boys are in fact Kanaks🤙🏾🫡

For the record, this wave is called Cave because "cave" means basement in Portuguese. It's just that dumb of a proposition. I believe Tiago Pires was the first to surf it and I lived in Ericeira for a year and never saw anyone paddle out. All those locals who showed up, probably only did so because the rumour went around that Nate was in the water. They don't actually go out. Hats off to the ballsiest surfer in the world at the moment.
