TEAHUPO’O PADDLE SESSION CHANGED WHAT IS POSSIBLE!

[@NathanFlorence]

Back in action with a heavy video drop! The channel angles of the extreme paddle session that went down at teahupoo, enjoy guys, this was one of the heaviest ive been apart of with people willing to go on anything and die for the glory of changing what is possible!

[@ponolovefarms3926]

Respect 🤙🏻

[@nickortcoski6769]

Nate, that was a really really heavy session. What got me about this day was how difficult the drops looked, so steep and so fast? I'd like to hear your thoughts on comparable drops, Choppes against Pipe against others and let us know what you have to do to make them? I'm getting too old to handle those wipeouts but would hand in hand ask about how heavy are those wipe outs are after not making a drop?? Nic puts these little credits in the corner when someone rides the wave so you know who it is, found myself asking myself " who is that charger" on a few of these... Want to see that MD deep tow one!! Respect to you and all who gave it a go out there this day! Aloha

[@scottmcwave9479]

Daredevils for sure! I liked the one when you looked back into the tube!

Insane. What length boards were you on?

Such an inspiring edit! Gets me pumped to paddle out my 2-3 footers! 😅😂

Almost makes Pipeline look like a joke.

[@goncalofilipe7259]

Matahi Drollet is insane... I think he knows this wave like no one! So solid!

[@hassannizar2561]

Agreed mate. Malik was the one before him.

Is Matahi the Goofy??

[@lavapix]

Excellent all around. Other channels blast you with unnecessary loud and terrible music. Yours simply fits in.

[@shrimpflea]

Music not needed at all. Wish it was just the sound of the waves and people.

[@lavapix]

@@shrimpflea In an ideal situation that would be great but often there are too many unwanted sounds you have going on in the background, especially when people are around. Cursing, commentary, etc... All too often the ocean sounds more like static than water.

[@drewfinn2]

@@shrimpflea like @3:33 just the entire time ? sure if that’s what floats ur boat. i’m just here for the boogie Boarding. these guys ruin the waves by standing up every time they drop in.

[@lellamas2778]

Reminds me of Norse Gods of the sea

[@nikolai_art]

Best surfing content on KZbin easily. Heavy sets, heavy music, great GoPro shots, and that look back on Tahiti a couple times. Perfect vid!

[@joshuaanderson4311]

OK, so first things first...... THAT WAS EPIC!!! The intensity of the music perfectly matched the intensity of the waves and the surfers riding them. Second of all.... glad no one got hurt! That wave's hydraulics is mind blowing. The wave comes in from such deep water that the draw of the previous wave is pushing it back up. It really is a freight train rolling over at 30 mph. Ya'll got some big ole' brass ones on ya. Keep up with the intensity and stay safe. We all want to see more and more of this. Ty for your shared journey.

[@orion8829]

I think you mean hydrodynamics not hydraulics

[@robertchiarizia9463]

@@orion8829 I suppose it could be hydraulics if the wave breaks on you and squishes you into the reef, then rolls you across it like grating cheese for dinner. Liquid is not compressible, why hydraulics work and air in the system messes it up. Air is compressible, why a barrel spits and brakes get spongy with air in the lines.

[@phyllisatbraniff7097]

Exactly!!

[@Bloktarino]

The was the heaviest edit I’ve seen this year! Is there a prize for that? There should be.. absolutely stunned. You guys are the best!!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@Punt_tv]

This is it right here. This is why we’re all here watching. That story of Matahi sitting out the back for hours waiting for the wave of the day was rad to hear the locals are nuts. Von froth is a charger that line up sounded so heavy. If you say its intense and heavy it is. I thrive off this it makes me want to push myself harder and harder in bigger surf. It’s literally your going or not there is no in between. Nate your a madman and a absolute legend I can’t wait to see more keep charging brada ya buddy 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💪🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼

[@nancykunik4370]

Most important factor here is total respect for each other and the waves... I think Nathan's face at the end shows such humbleness about what he just experienced.

[@jameslowe2979]

Loved the shot of the Redbull ski being chased down by the wave, it's good that these bits are captured as well as the surfing. Awesome job and incredible surfing from you and the rest of the fellas out there.

[@fzxman1]

Great choice of appropriate heavy music for such a heavy session Nathan! Glad everyone survived! TEAM FLORENCE ROCKS!

[@JettScott]

Thanks once again for showing such boogie love. It means alot coming from someone who's at the pinnacle of surfing take the time to even do that.

[@maxsurf]

great video, good idea to comment in the end of the video. This is the perfect format, this is what we all want. Keep creating, thank you Nathan !

[@lesfin3265]

Respect to all the warriors who paddled that. Insane!

[@s.z.9517]

Perfect choice of music man.

[@mothereartha7]

This is so well edited, the music matching the intensity of the surf, the photography faultless , the textures and colour, and drama, a friggen feast for the eyes. Deserves a movie or something.

[@treepaul]

I love the breakdown at the end, it gives us that much more of a full picture of what the day was like. Bless up, thanks for sharing

[@petermcguinness8222]

Nate...dear God...I don't think I blinked or breathed during the whole second half of that vid. The best.

[@NathanHarrison7]

The music you guys selected for the wave riding sessions, really captured the energy and spectacle perfectly. Probably the best music I’ve seen paired with wave riding in any video. And yes; the local boys were very present in the video.

[@tomw2687]

That wave is crazy insane!! All who attempt it make it, don't make it or just full on charge are bad ass in my book. Great footage Nathan!!! Unreal and beautiful wave and island.

[@richardwatkins7957]

I'm constantly impressed by your crew of surfers charging hard .I no I couldn't take that on.but I am 60 so respect men.and nathan your charisma, story telling and surfing gets me amped..

[@joshkellerman4553]

that Jetski clip was insane

[@BoogerBox]

Yeah I don't think people realize how fucking gnarly that was

[@beauchamp1763]

Your living a great life Nathan Florence, you and all the crew charge it hard and I can see that your humble and thankful for the life you lead, and we love tuning in to watch. A big thank you to the locals for sharing such a beautiful place and THE break that is Teahupoo. Hi from the west coast of Australia 🇦🇺

[@jon3113]

The Bodyboarders must be bummed. Usually West swells were their domain. Taking off at the pinch and then hop scotching car sized foam balls takes alot of skill. I am also going to say alot of luck too, because it seemed apparent there were many bailouts and little serious injury. Thank you Nathan. I was thinking while watching your Lookback scene that you have the same initials as Nathan Fletcher. Remember his epic Teahupoo wipeout? Bon Voyage.

[@anotherworldviewispossible]

5:54 - you didn't count that as a "make"? Looked like a pretty solid Bodysurf ride. You were tracking pretty well in that one, for a while. Is Mike Stewart jealous?

[@davidteitelman3890]

This is the very epitome of surfing ... IMO. Great shots from different views guys . 👍

[@ripstickish]

Wow touching on a new realm of what is possible paddle surfing on waves like that. You have paid the band and are definitely dancing on the edge of what is almost impossible. I find it truly inspiring that you push all the boundaries and limits of your surfing abilities knowing that you are so close to the impossible. Take the drop and ask questions later….
