[@jarrodderr]

Pretty sure this is what the trip to heaven is going to look like.

[@malaihiboi]

I keep thinking what I'd give to experience a endless barrel like this before I die... I've gotta make it happen at least once before I can't. Maybe not somewhere as cold though lol. Thanks for the inspiration for so long man.

malaihiboi :....The Only place you are Ever gonna get a Barrel like This is at This particular spot.....Place is, Truly, Most Perfect Barrel in the entire World......

[@jahkgdm]

Furry Fox Vlogz there are a few places in indo I've ridden that come close -- 4-5 legit barrels on one wave.

[@ghgeueigfrfhaeztejuywy5494]

[@brockman562]

one rare move Botha snuck in at 6:29 where wave is primarily a bottom turn to set your fuckin line wave

[@bjjsalzberry13]

Dope!!

[@Carltheblackone]

Sick

[@Ibprius]

Its crazy how the longest barrel on the planet is also pound for pound one of the heaviest.

Absolutely beautiful.

[@jaysmith6238]

How does anyone give this video a thumbs down?

[@sandrarobertson4921]

In my next life, I want to be a surfer.

[@jamescant9116]

Why next go make it happen

[@MarkLiebrand]

Maybe you were in your previous life ;)

[@chrisemerson7743]

It’s pretty obvious I was! I read and watch it constantly. I keep thinking one day I’ll retire and move to a place with waves! I live I central Alabama and about the only surfing I’ve done are 3 trips to Hawaii and mostly behind a boat. How else can I explain this love I have for surfing yet I live 4.5 hours from the coast? I’ve always felt this way and I’m 45 now! Honestly all I need is a board, I’ll ride a bus or hitch hike to get there! Since I’m getting divorced and no kids I guess I should start making some plans! That would be nice!

[@dimsoneill]

@@chrisemerson7743 do it mate, you only have one life, and surfing is the best feeling ever. Get on the boog, it won't take you long to learn the basics. I will be years before you have anywhere near Andre's level of skill barrel riding tho!

[@maxdaniels4326]

@@dimsoneill I can't wait until a few years time once I've had both my shoulders surgery so I can properly get back in the water

[@darroncarter1678]

sickest pov

[@Saltycures]

Man I gotta surf this place one day!

[@alexwoolford8946]

Dude get there quick ‘cause the bank there is disappearing...

[@Laubabykong]

@@alexwoolford8946 really?

[@alexwoolford8946]

Yeah, it’s because of global warming, pretty much, there are more off season swells that destroy the bank at skeleton bay, and slowly but Surely the bank is getting worse, making the break more sectional and inconsistent. 😞

[@ghostfacekafka5152]

song is Uranus - Sleeping At Last

[@ziconess]

That is fucking magic Andre

[@pantone95330]

3:29 how long is that tube ! 3:24 nice seal bodysurfing :)

[@michaelmcgovern9881]

I don’t get it, is that a shorebreak? is it deep right there?

[@LIQUIDE]

hey bro, search about shorebreak copacabana mutant waves

[@seangreenhalgh2969]

So filthy Andre

[@LIQUIDE]

hehehe

[@diegovelazquez9461]

This is sketch, where there’s seals there’s sharks. Plus the water visibility is awful. Beautiful wave though

[@RNicolasRuvalcaba]

Someone give that seal a GoPro 3:25

[@julieoliver8170]

When are the real men gonna longboard this place.

All I need is money and time:}

Locals call it Donkey Bay....how did Skeleton Bay come about?

[@jack03kneeboard96]

oh i always thought skeleton bay and donkey bay were different spots, u learn something every day lol

[@charlieburger3701]

Coca-Cola anyone?

[@tneier]

Had to ruin it 😂 lol

[@LIQUIDE]

lets go!

[@williamtomlinson994]

stand and be counted.

[@kekoajk05]

William Tomlinson be counted as what exactly? I have a sneaking suspicion nobody gives a fuck whether you count them as anything.. there are plenty of places around the world where dudes like these are super important, with televised press conferences and shit, hence why guys like Botha and Romero can make a living traveling the world surfing.. I'll bet you'll never get that opportunity regardless of whether you are standing or not, so go on with your condescending attitude towards guys that have done more for water sports than you would have in ten lifetimes... great logic, but I'm sure you count so it's all good.. smh...

[@craigperry5729]

You're fucking crazy to be surfing with seals. Hello Great White

[@DanHomeAtLast]

dirty af

[@JD-tx9ds]

AFRICA yes #BLM #Bodyboarderlivesmatter

[@checkaneh]

My apologies for being anal: It is Skeleton Coast, not Skeleton Bay.

[@willemvrey]

This particular spot on the Skeleton Coast is called Skeleton Bay by the international surf community. The locals call it Donkey Bay..

[@samimoring1235]

shark infested&polluted water..why do you think the seals are getting out if the water..indos better

[@carioca56]

Shark infested, yes. Polluted? No.

[@lazydaze3134]

sami moring The seals are running from the sharks lmao.

[@tneier]

Indo has pollution

[@greggsmith7688]

Surfing has evolved so much, why are people still lying down

[@jahkgdm]

Gregg Smith I'd like to see you evolve but removing your fins(training wheels) from you surfboard. Didn't you see the stand up going over the falls? There are waves that you can surf only on you belly. Btw, most of the gnarliest waves ridden today were discovered by bodyboarders. Your comment only diminishes your integrity🤙

[@greggsmith7688]

Jah mon, My integrity is sound, Your humor is found wanting, surfed without fins plenty, fin missing plenty.Over the falls standing up, no so much but it has happened. Caught a wave lying down. Na, my integrity is in tacked

[@surfandjiujitsu2444]

Gregg Smith all that matyers is that you shoot out the barrel and out the back of the wave with a huge smile on your face evan some yelling doesnt matter what you ride.

[@greggsmith7688]

S and J, just having some fun, it really does not matter, just enjoy

[@greggsmith7688]

Lourenco, now it matters again
