[@matthewj9832]

I love sterlings commentary of foiling “eh eh eh eh EH EHH EHHHH!!!!”

[@batman50ish]

Nate, its not the dang marketing guys that are ruining surf companies. They understand that authenticity is critical and athletes supply the energy that fuel a sports brand. The real issue is publically held mega companies that constantly succumb to unrealistic shareholder pressure and unrealistic year over year. gains... without reinvesting in the brand.

[@saudigold50]

Yes ✌🏼

[@rm7095]

Glad to see you both back. I was watching your surf trips along the way. Not a surfer at all just love the ocean and watching you all surf the wild waves of the world.

[@turbowtime9611]

This is pre-olympics. This is old lol.

[@danbevins7959]

Nate and Koa, I watch all of your individual videos and podcasts. Along with JOB videos, and some of his podcast, but truthfully your podcast makes me feel like I'm sitting in the room with you, which I like. Also anytime JJF post a video I watch as well. But there is just so much surf content, and youtube shorts ruins people's attention. I like your videos, and I will continue to watch, my advice would be to just continue making it personal. People want connection, we can relate to you as friends, even though we don't know you personally, I feel like I could start up a conversation with you easily. Also, don't pump out so much that it becomes uninteresting. 1 video a week is perfect, especially if it's about the same time, don't over do it and dilute yourself. Keep it personal like you have, stay friends with your audience, and be consistent with 1 quality video a week

[@reuzbl7742]

I agree with your comment, and I always feel a personal, humble, and humorous vibe from both of them (but especially in Nate’s videos). I wonder how much of their audience is from Southern California, because the surf has been pretty minimal here for awhile. Maybe California surfers are more focused on work, school, politics and world events at the moment.

[@okiasurfing]

As a surfer, I find foiling another beautiful way to connect with the ocean and travel with waves. i have never done it but I'm soon to try

[@namaste3296]

Am in the only one here who has NEVER surfed in their life but love this channel?

[@christianblake2179]

I think foiling looks fun as hell, just wish it wasn’t so expensive

[@nickc3856]

Same. Idk how to even get started either, foilers gatekeep their thing pretty hard

[@johnw8945]

@@nickc3856Nah I don’t think we gatekeep, its actually an incredibly chill and welcoming vibe, like the opposite of surfing really. Its just very new and expensive and theres so many disciplines. The best way to get started is to do an e foil lesson, or get towed behind a boat/ jetski. Its also hard to say what to start on but if you can afford it the Unifoil progression series is really intuitive and easy to use.

[@eyeamtim]

Koa learning to foil next 😊

[@alanromero2123]

Spot on about saturation of surf blogs. I just stay patient to see what I like to see: both of your vlogs and the podcasts, which keep getting better. Imua boys, stay healthy!

[@kpslinger6030]

Get Chris Owens on to school you about prone paddling in the islands. He solo'ed the entire island chain. Legendary waterman.

[@williamhartlove7102]

As always you guys cover so many interesting subjects and experiences. Love the tales!

[@jake_m27]

Great to see you boys back on the pod 👍 might be due to all the wsl content through the season, I always find myself struggling to catch all your vids then as soon as your winter comes around I don't miss a thing. Love your work as always

[@angusrobinson9665]

Hey Nate and Koa, what do you guys reckon about doing podcasts in the downtime, you were talking about, when you are on location on surf trips, even if you two are in different locations? Could use video calling so you are both still on the podcast at the same time while interviewing people you are travelling with on location. Been really enjoying the podcasts.

[@tebiasmason8643]

Good to see the podcast back. I’ve seen every episode. And I look for koas videos every Wednesday. Watch em all. Nate, you’ll see a boost soon. You’re my spirit animal but regretfully… I’m not subscribed, yet. This video is old from the time it was made to when it posted so maybe the numbers have settled… but honestly vids from the home break with the boys are the best. The all time fave is Malibu code red. “Look at all the kooks going to be scared if this wave” the edit, the music, the surfing primo. But I lived in ca and it was relatable. But any collabs with the boys and the banter… makes the surfing a bonus.

[@JasonColeMBCSMIET]

Hello there , they do sweet tricks and flips and surfing them on a wave is amazing

[@loki475]

Foiling isn't kooky but kooks are usually foiling 🤷

[@bobsmith8124]

Kooks can’t foil lol

[@loki475]

@@bobsmith8124 lol ya it doesnt stop them from trying though

[@TruthIsNot4Sale]

Super happy to see you guys back chitchatting it up loved the episode. Makes me very happy. I don’t know what’s going on with KZbin but they just implemented watching super long commercials where you can’t skip them and they’re like back to back commercials that are minutes long I don’t know if that has anything to do with people not watching as much because people get impatient And I can’t stand the new commercial ads BS they have going so that might have something to do with your numbers being low not sure though anyway thanks for hanging out loved it. Can’t wait to see the next one.👏👏🤙🏼

[@joshsmith7999]

I want give foiling a go, but there is so much sea weed in Perth and big sharks to worry about if you get stuck out wide.

[@JJ-fq6zi]

Great to see you guys back! missed this big time.

[@CHARLIES23]

The wait for the pod is over! Welcome back boys😎

Love you guys! Thanks for bringing us another pod!

Foiling is so much fun!

[@Ziip47]

Ayyyy i have been watching all the old episodes. Perfect

[@AlexMuniz-fg6ce]

Great pod. Thanks for all the info. I guys rock

[@dolphin_dog]

foils are the razor scooters of the sea but significantly more deadly

[@isaacvargas284]

Foiling looks kooky when you get started but when ur good at it like kai lenny, it looks fun

[@Sol_Weird]

I live in arizona and there are no waves. (I Grew up in the southern Cal ocean so not a total kook...) Will be foiling lake pleasant as soon as I can get my hands on one!

[@discountedcashflows]

Why is koa pretending like he’s never been on a foil when he has one across from him in the room 😂

[@leannecuster1490]

I think foiling is cool looks like fun.

[@RoyceJakob]

Get your equity boys, it’s well deserved 🌊📈

[@globalbossevent7284]

You guys should do a pod cast on the effects of your global vlogs. How it creates overtourism and floods once empty lineups. Anything for a dollar these days.

[@davebrown2728]

Missed you guys! Hopefully see you again soon

[@ConorCopponi]

need to see some more workout/ foiling videos

[@yahwea]

I heard Nate say he thought he broke his back again in a recent video. Thanks for bringing it up.

Foiling looks strange, but supper fun.

[@LiftRunStretch]

Watch the back boys, I’ve just got thru a 1 1/2 year recovery. No surfing. Preventative maintenance, take small breaks if you’re over 30 and have pain before you go out.

[@KreadeSessions]

I really like these you guys are great

[@dolphin_dog]

SUPs are like a dirt bike at the skatepark - theoretically fun for the person riding it but really annoying for everyone else

[@jimmypurchas4140]

i like watching a few channels might not just be surfing, could be podcarts like this, your channels, Surfing with nos, etc

[@derfmctighe0108]

You guys turning into garmentos! Hawkin pillows, really!! Luv ya anyway got to make a livin

What!!!? Stoked for another ep

[@womprat2447]

Would be cool if you guys have a North Shore Grom or two as guests to see who’s up n coming and get their take on where surfing is going as well as earning their way into the lineup at Pipe.

pause

[@raildude270]

Foiling looks pretty dorky, but it’s kinda fun haha

[@justincreamer5404]

thats interesting the veiws are going down on yt for both of you guys. i would say that basically the only thing i watch on youtube at this point is surf content, almost exclusively (sorry koa) nates channel. but it is currently fall in north america so hopefully everyone is just busy getting stoked on waves and buying merch etc to support

[@tjtoobs]

Worrying about the way something looks is a really good way to limit yourself. Stop worrying about what others think because it’s directly rooted to what you believe people might think if you if your foiling. Fuck that. Style matters in surfing, but that’s really limiting

[@marctuor5882]

Amen brother

[@chaaapo_]

Might be fun but looks kooky

[@rocknjock9300]

Foiling along SUP is kooky AF

Those who haven’t foiled hate on foiling! It’s all about expanding your on water quiver for all conditions!!

[@arthurbialik]

Andras Antal from Budapest Hungary also surfs! He lives in Peru now. Sold him his first board and wetsuit for 100$ to attack the American dream :) I wonder who would win the heat of Hungary!!!!! Zoard vs Andras!

[@danielkoval6922]

Yes it looks kook koa

[@S292S]

Bring back the Pyzel funformance boards! Totally capable of being versatile enough to be your surfboard and hard enough to foil on. And who cares about just throwing one in your bag, they were nearly indestructible

Like ya never left. Love to see it

[@ts-ow3fm]

foiling is hella kooky - commented before nathan's sell

[@Optable]

Brands like JOB, Nate, John, Cola Bros, TIL, STAB, Kai Lenny, etc are what's killing the surf landscape. And they know that. They no longer have ownership over the footage, the merch, and the behind the scenes content. They have to compete for market share with you guys. What you guys push, is what the world is interested in. While it used to be a benefit for the sponsors alone, and to be seen by your audience, things shifted. The audience supports you guys for who you are and what you represent, so any changes you make will be met with support.

[@ghostx325]

My friends and I always call them guillotines when we see them in the water

[@vincentkr3w]

More pls. Thx

[@daveosland]

Hey Guys - In regards to the KZbin surf videos, there was definitely a difference the last few months in the algorithm that has been being pumped out to our accounts. Even though I continued to watch a lot of surfing and hunting and snowmobiling, there was less thumbnails and click-bait for those interests being presented to me. I think that politics and the election played a big role in that. I am noticing that things have changed since the election has been over. 🤷‍♂

[@Darkgizmo221]

I find myself watching more when the winter swells pop up. But also your videos just aren't in my feed as lately.

[@sam57890]

Summertime KZbin surf swoon. I’m not watching surfing videos when I’m out enjoying the ocean during warm months.

[@woodnbikes]

If theres no waves its not a surf session. Koa is right. Foiling is for dorks. Man up and skate! (But be sure to buy your Florence Marine X Foil board today!!)

[@julie.an.nalley9582]

Never miss a podcast 😎

[@bobsmith8124]

If Koa doesn’t have waves he just gets his daddy to buy him a trip somewhere… such a spoiled brat that’s why he doesn’t get it. Nathan is a real one.

[@kalikardebrum1585]

Comparing Cycling to Foiling is perfect I think - kookiest but high potential for fun.
