Perfect Surf at Raglan - New Zealand's Longest Point Break

[@kurtw491]

IIRC this break was featured in The Endless Summer, when all we had was long boards. I remember when anything shorter than 8 feet was considered a short board, hah !!

[@jeffbezos701]

looks so beautiful, my dad used to surf here 20 odd years ago, very nice

[@goofy29f76]

New Zealand the perfect land . Beautiful . Thanks .

[@c.p.1589]

I remember sitting on my deck 20 something years ago looking down at this at10ft plus as guys shredded it and three Orcas tore up a couple of seals in the middle of the line up. It's a special place.

[@Phil-ww1dv]

A thousand thanks, mate. Trying to get down there ASAP.

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Oh man that is so good. One of those days when you never want to stop surfing until your arms fall off. So jealous of that sitting here on my iPad. You lucky lucky surfers

[@ericecho5118]

Gorgeous drone footage. These shots look incredible - great video!

[@derekflow]

Just beautiful, you really got some great shots!

[@sparkyandeliza]

This footage is so epic! I've just joined the Mavic forums and saw you post link to your channel - look forward to seeing more content :) - Eliza

[@dbayang7962]

Love the music!

[@zacvanderwesthuyzen3446]

The waves are awesome. I lived in NZ for 10years but now in South africa Jeffreys bay

[@KandMe1]

Maybe the longest. Mongamanu is a very long point break right hander but it doesn't break all the way except in the northerly cyclone swell which does not happen often. If it really was a fact that raglan broke from indicators all the way through whale bay to Manu bay then yup it would be the longest but I never heard of it happening ever. I think it's a myth. And I would rather take my chances at indicators than flappy Manu Bay Just saying. but it is really cool love raglan its a place of beauty and most times can get a surf at Manu Bay it's consistent compared to most. this brings back memories. Raglan is an awesome place beautiful, lush, fertile land surrounds. Green hills lush terrain oh wish I was there now.

[@brucedee3019]

It's like a nature version of Kelly's wave pool!

[@grant5603]

Without the barrel

[@anrudo]

May be Kelly's wave it's an artificial version of this. Nature is always better.

[@michaela7759]

No way, Kelly's pool is great but has dark swampish looking water

[@nicothomson8532]

Michael A that was the first test its perfect now, raglan wins tho bro

[@diehardsurfing]

[@MarcoCantieni]

Really nice work 👍🏻

[@JurisicSantiago]

So much hate in the comment section, instead of enjoying the video.

[@logandoerr9480]

I know it's sad

[@IllinoisCitizen]

I'd rather hear the waves. KZbin producer seem to think people want to hear their music. Otherwise, great footage.

[@aaronarmstrong86]

If it weren't for the music you would be listening to the bee hive sounds of a drone. Even a microphone from shore wouldn't match how you saw the video.. why don't you mute it and play your sounds of nature playlist.

[@ben3989]

Looks a lot like Oregon’s seaside point.

[@tonzray]

wow bro .luv what you do ..

[@henryssurfshowcase]

That looks so fun

[@kiwinka7414]

Indicators!

[@Kaikoura72]

I believe this title should belong to Shippies in the Far North.

[@9unks]

Yup longest point break is not Raglan but it is definitely one of the most consistent

[@NikHazell]

Really? A few guys managed to link up Indicators and Whale Bay whilst we were there - if you make it through to Manu Bay as well that's gotta be a couple of kilometres of riding!

[@9unks]

Nik Hazell It might have been my mate he was there not long ago and told me of his epic wave! But yeah Shippies is longer but swells that deliver that kind of wave are not as frequent

[@NikHazell]

Definitely gotta check out Shippies next time we're surfing in NZ then!

[@aaronarmstrong86]

Shippies is amazing. No doubt.

[@Andy_M986]

Fiordland coast is bigger and wilder,just not accessible,you need a local guide that can get you there.

[@rotsen995]

I like to surf but damn surfers are snobs when they comment.

[@subsamadhi4124]

rotsen995 most of these fucktards arent actually surfers. If some of them are ripping on the skills of fellow surfers its.becaise they are either horrible themselves or have gotten their asses kicked by real surfers at some point

[@bilbobaggins2083]

True

[@paulminisini1436]

How's the fucking loser that presss the don't like button. This place looks like heaven. As an aussie im hanging to get there and have promised my son & i we will surf this paradise soon. But as always totaly and much respect to the locals first and up most👍 Only then do i have the right to enter the water. ..

[@Jon-h2z]

Ahipara shipwreck bay...nz .blue house to the sand trap...7 km ride wen it 8 to 10 foot.

[@macss6615]

Cool ass vid that with a great fooking tune!! Topwork ;-)

[@alexbabcock03]

[@michael69040]

Would a long board work on this wave?

[@rockinrollinntrollin616]

it did in 1967-1970...not too sure about now ? when we had to walk down to that break .!!

[@hudsonquay]

Absolutely, in fact I'd say longboard is the most popular choice in Raglan

[@PBGSURFER65]

Don't bash the surfers, it's just a big cruisey wave. I wonder if it got better later that day, when the tide went out a bit.

[@daswack889]

whats the name of this break?

[@NikHazell]

Raglan!

[@yanallewell1669]

That particular break is 'Indicators', Indies for short. Strictly Locals Only! Don't even think about it.

[@daswack889]

@@yanallewell1669 thats what i thought I checked that break while i was in new zealand and it was completley flat

[@rhyleesmumX]

Manu Bay

[@Stopthegreed]

@@yanallewell1669 we all would hope it was locals only. Fact is 70% of the surfers out at indicators are tourist's.

[@jennyallica8500]

what music is this thanks

[@markrowland1366]

The longest ride on earth. Several miles. A taxi back.

[@Stopthegreed]

Raglan points even if they linked together they aren't a mile long. And no taxis needed.

[@christophrathgeber7567]

I honestly live at the wrong side of the earth :-(

[@chrisberge9775]

Nice drone footage bro and that section of indicators through into the valley is sooo much fun, especially with a bit of size...but I'd question the title of new zealand's longest wave

[@edgarzavala9131]

[@BassSwirls]

And wheres the longboards?

[@finreid5486]

song?

[@nyyankees4296]

nice saxophone

[@brendonleary]

That would have been proper fun to surf with a tracker. Something that could make use of the fatter shoulder. Maybe even a short thick twinnie to generate speed and get some proper carving going on, and project up over the crumbling lip... I think the few surfers we watched seemed to have the wrong kit.. They just were not able to find the pocket and work with the wave... Yet I am positive, the wave could have been ridden in a lot more pleasing fashion...

[@brendonleary]

@Joe Cool We are all always trying to get better. I think the surfers all seem like very competent surfers, and they do surf the wave fine for what they are riding. My major point was I think they are riding the wrong boards for the waves. If they had different boards they may be able to get more out of the wave.

[@kevysrandomstuff5835]

OMG ditch the music please

[@greenhouseproductions6475]

It's longboarding wave!!! Slow an no power

[@marcusgraham8539]

It's not a long boarder wave at all. The footage is taken at high ride at indicators. And its not big. If it was 6 foot + and a lower ride the place is completely different. Snappers is a great wave but the crowds make it a monster of a place. I have surfed indicators for hours with only 3 guys and haven't stopped paddling and riding waves. But it needs size to scare off the punters. I love Australia but the east coast has the worst crowds on any of the good points. Even with size it's unbearable. At Raglan there are 3 points. Manu has the barrel. Whale is the fat point. And indicators has both. But the place can fire.

[@greenhouseproductions6475]

marcus graham the east cost has 5 star waves..raglan is rated a 3.. Iv surfed Raglan plenty of times and have never seen a hollow barrel out thea....at raglan there called pinchers

[@marcusgraham8539]

greenhouse Productions the Gold coast has great waves yes sure and my family live up on the sunshine coast. But when it gets good every man cat and dog go surfing. I've seen snappers firing with 100+ guys out. I've seen Noosa 8 foot with 100 guys out. It's really hard to get anywhere pumping without masses of people. I have Had Raglan dozens and dozens of times with very few people and pumping waves. If you have surfed indicators when it's big and perfect you wouldn't ever call it a weak longboarders wave. The points in Raglan are not GLand. But still produce amazing waves. And when I go for a surf I don't want to climb over 100 guy's then get dropped in on by 20 down the line.

[@marcusgraham8539]

If it was just about wave quality like how hollow and long a barrel can be ridden then you wouldn't fly into NZ and surf Raglan. I've spent plenty of time surfing Aussie and NZ and love both. But I've also like many people spent years in Indonesia. And If I want amazing waves I go to Indo. I would never do a surf trip to the Gold coast not because they don't have amazing waves but the crowds are the worst I've ever had anywhere in the world. But I meet some guys in Byron running the channel islands surf factory who raved about going to NZ and surfing different spots. One of their favorites being Raglan. Because the waves are great and little to no crowds.
