The Skeleton Bay Shootout | Surf Contest At The Best Wave In The World

[@timotmon]

Why do surf videos never show the pop up? I would love to see how people get into the different types of waves in the world.

[@ninjagotguns]

EXACTLY!! this is what I've always been missing. Just the 5 seconds before the pop up as well, watching the surfers make the decision to go for it

[@josephooks]

check out surfers of bali

[@dacat8171]

Have a look at 8:46.

[@timotmon]

@@dacat8171 Nice! Thanks.

[@k_films-rz9yb]

It’s just this one

[@dantakeoff]

esus, boys that was breathtakingly gorgeous, more barrel time here than the entire pro tour over a year

[@NowNowMedia]

Cheers, glad you enjoyed it!

[@BoyHereWeGo]

@@NowNowMedia That was absolutely beautiful!

[@socalbeeremovalandrelocation]

This has to be the most perfect wave in the world.

[@Who.is.Clinton]

BEST camera shots we have ever seen at this break, well done chaps

[@NowNowMedia]

Cheers and thank you for watching.

[@alejandrotobienne8220]

Not really most angles are like this.

[@sferguson1130]

The vast majority of the sick SB swells I’ve seen, are POV, because the fog is gnarly.

[@HassanMcmahon]

It just goes on forever and ever!. This is some of the best surfing footage I've ever seen.

[@Son-ft7u]

Skeleton Bay must surely be the longest and best wave in the world, never mind in Namibia. That side angle looking up the point is incredible.

[@brantrichardson1949]

Natalia should get a little prize money for being the only one to attempt a top turn. Sweet footage. #1 wave on my bucket list.

[@NowNowMedia]

She did! And for her crazy barrels. Thanks for watching.

[@scottttttttttttttttttt]

Maybe she is in fact Bill Bryan’s offspring

[@EternalJourneys]

Props to the drone pilot at 5:55 Thats some tidy lines there 🔥

[@NowNowMedia]

Cheers and thanks for watching. That's Dale Staples flying the drone, almost as skilled in the air as he is in the tube.

[@ChrisRogers]

Great work guys! so stoked everyone scored! that's the most perfect I've seen it in a while!!!

[@NowNowMedia]

Cheers @ChrisRogers, much appreciated and thanks for watching!

[@margob99]

Absolutely loved this! Thank you! More please ...

[@dampaul13]

Just imagine the millions upon millions of perfect waves, all around the world, that were never ridden. Awesome do see these beauties with someone on them.

[@creature_of_the_undergroun261]

That was awesome to watch. Everyone scoring insane long barrels. Epic

[@NowNowMedia]

Cheers and thanks for watching.

[@troycreatlive4148]

Another great job. NOW NOW. Thank u that someone is doing this.

[@NowNowMedia]

Cheers @troycreatlive4148, thanks for watching.

[@doomaphotos]

Would love to see Clay Marzo surf out there when it was firing ! He would blow peoples minds

[@leeechee]

Is that you Clay?

[@f0t0b0y]

Totally. Pound for pound the best Surfer on the 🌍

[@jackgilligan417]

And he do it all in board shorts

[@gurpreetsemby5092]

bs. he not top 100

[@olsim1730]

It's hardly the kind of wave to highlight an individuals style...

[@Anmeteor9663]

Never surfed. Always a keen spectator. Great waves, great surfers, great drone footage. ✌️

[@NowNowMedia]

Cheers @nickmeteor9663 , thanks for watching.

[@maxnuccio2440]

Music bringing be back to the days of Transworld Surf on PS2 haha. Epic waves so cool to see a unique surf contest in some of the best and definitely longest barreling waves on earth to date.

[@NowNowMedia]

Cheers @maxnuccio2440, thanks for watching.

[@shainedupuis2649]

This is some of the best surfing footage I've ever seen😍

[@NowNowMedia]

Cheers @shainedupuis2649, thanks for watching.

[@sMVshortMusicVideos]

Cool format. great waves.

[@FrugalReefer]

Banzai Pipeline: I have the best barrels in the world Skeleton Bay: Hold my beer

[@leahjane8849]

IS THIS SPOT ON THE NAMIBIAN COAST FANTASTIC VID. 10:13

[@Jason-TheChad-Muska_circa1995]

This place is terrifying. That being said I hope to go back someday. There's an eeriness in the water that for me personally I have felt nowhere else.

[@zogy628]

Great waves would be nice to see a few take offs.

[@ricksurf60]

Brendon's wave was beyond epic!

[@mikejohnson5900]

It just goes on forever and ever!

[@jakemarlow8998]

My legs are sore just from watching them!

[@NowNowMedia]

Thanks for watching! Please hit subscribe if you like what you see. We’ve got more in the making.

[@jxbusic]

Great video and the drone segment at 5m 40s is absolutely brilliantly done. 👏

[@NowNowMedia]

Thanks for watching @jxbusic. The drone work is by Dale Staples - incidentally he's as good in the tube at Skeleton Bay as he is at getting those shots.

[@sandygilmour5444]

Unbelievable wave so cool how long it lasts and how many waves line up

[@seatoskyadventures6130]

So insanely Epic! Now Now killing it out there

[@NowNowMedia]

Cheers @seatoskyadventures6130, thanks for watching.

[@pg5420]

Nadia's stall into the tube was so dope!!

[@in2thewater]

OH MY BOEREWORS ROLLS

[@jeromemosetic7250]

Wowsers this is mental, I can only imagine all the other clips banked from the run off swell from all the other surfers, how about a part 2?

[@NowNowMedia]

Cheers Jerome. Definitely some leftovers...

[@banzospod]

Beautiful,would it be a bit too much to ask for clear blue water.😉😉😉😉🤙🤙🤙🤙

[@NowNowMedia]

Thanks for watching. Give this a play if you're after clear blue water: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJvMgaGtma6ggdE

[@banzospod]

@@NowNowMedia WOW,thanks for that.Cowabungaaaaaaa

[@dongaza6878]

Definition of the dream tour

[@NowNowMedia]

Would have to agree.

[@ErloBrown1]

Lekker vibes and even better waves. Thank you for this video!

[@NowNowMedia]

Cheers and thanks for watching.

[@billjohnson7706]

Bucket list for sure! ❤

[@gavinderbyshire5535]

Amazing to watch... great effort all round...

[@Steve-hs5le]

Dang I'm hooked,great video

[@NowNowMedia]

Thank you for watching.

[@stevenieves3728]

How often does it break like this? Just amazing.

[@Danilo0717]

Maybe Kelly added his pool machine in there! haha amazing

[@craigperry5729]

Incredible video...thank you

[@NowNowMedia]

Thanks for watching @craigperry5729

[@edwardmunhozmundy8374]

Wild, no crowd, a true wave machine. 😅

[@RamonHV]

Great video! I think its imposible to rate scores it those long perfect waves, everyones getting barrels!

[@NowNowMedia]

Cheers and thank you for watching @ramonhernandez5743

[@chrisculley3756]

Look like Max Elkington had the perfect setup with that thruster. He was just sitting right in the pocket. Making it look effortless. RLTW 3/75

[@bretthardin9239]

have to carry your lunch with ya on some of those rides

[@michael69040]

I started surfing in 1960 in Southern California. I enjoyed long board surfing maybe 5 feet max waves in a "stately" manner. All the crouching and hunching I see in these videos today makes me wince. It can't feel as enjoyable. An opinion of course.

[@venturefanatic9262]

Those Sets look like out of a Park, one right after the other like Clockwork.

[@johnhagan582]

So who won the cash at the end ? did I miss that ???

[@NowNowMedia]

Jordy Maree at 07:00 was main winner for the wave of the swell. But anyone who got a wave out there was a winner. Thanks for watching.

[@DeforestLCooper]

Holy cow! This is mental!

[@BirdHuffman-l7w]

Flat out Awesome!!!

[@rutasafa657]

Grande Nadia!!

[@leighgilmour1702]

Whoop whoop 🙌🏼 🎉

[@Cove-he2fl]

Every wave was a perfect 10.

[@michaelwillis6520]

This is as perfect as slaters wave pool except much bigger just knarly as hell wish I was there don't you?

[@danestaples4]

Yeww! Pits for years 🙌🏼

[@bertradmacher2623]

Bucket list f sure, got surf magazine about that serf zone

[@miguelbrzovic3495]

Como diria mi hijo Gaspar. Deditos para arriba. Viva el Surf!!!! Viva la vida!!

[@guilhermedias3275]

Why is this wave not part of the WSL pro tour?

[@markwaves9157]

Nadia, una máquina Española ❤

[@Kahuna54]

Think about Kelly Slater and these waves! Mind Blown!

[@NowNowMedia]

Thanks for watching @Kahuna54 - word has it that Kelly Slater may be there right now.

[@finzfan47]

Question. I’m not a surfer but thinking about getting into it. I always was into body boarding. But anyway. Do people who discover these spots get pissed when they get blown up? Or do they like sharing them? Skeleton bay was hardly even known 10 years ago

[@MobBarley00]

Getting to this spot is so challenging it’s not likely it will ever be packed

[@sferguson1130]

First time I’ve ever seen SB, not look absolutely terrifying ( excluding the wave ). It’s almost always exclusively low vis water, foggy, POV, that makes it look like they’re surfing on the moon, with seal colonies & great whites

[@MicahSimpson]

reminds me of a video game! so perfect!

[@SaturnRooster81]

Nadia was the stand out ❤

[@michaelnicholls8527]

Clean surf, the water cleanness is debatable. Aloha

[@NowNowMedia]

Thanks for watching @michaelnicholls8527 . The water quality is actually really good, the colour comes from all the sediment moving around and upwelling.

[@ryanstewart1521]

Dream session!

[@jhaysonfernandes4102]

❤LOVE This Wave

[@mikeobryant3367]

I remember first seeing this wave in the lost redux vid...it still just doesn't even look real!

[@Mo-wt4ks]

Clearly Jordy Maree did not need any sunscreen.

[@Who.is.Clinton]

This is the best wave in the world, just saying, this video (again and again and again and again) is the evidence...is the proof. Yisem chaaaana's!!! the stoke is real!

[@NowNowMedia]

Cheers and thank you for watching. Would have to agree - nothing quite compares to Namibia and Skeleton Bay.

[@henrymorgan3982]

Nuts. A machine.

[@lukebable]

Oh the cramps ! Worth every twinge...lol

[@upsidedahead]

Where's Barley, B. Smith, K. & Florence, N.???

[@NowNowMedia]

This was the swell before, they came about two weeks later on the bigger but unf messy swell that didn't quite line up. Cheers.

[@marcelosrocha]

Galera fez a cabeça nestas kilometricas ondas tubulares, parabens.Mahalo.

[@blaisemorris1301]

Where was the Braai with that beautiful Namibian meat afterwards?

[@amineouelji47]

I like surf and animals saving ❤

[@FeelJah2222]

Essa onda é incrível! Seloko

[@scottburrow8717]

Amazing!

[@johnhagan582]

One dude after another so deep inside the barrel that you wouldn't even see them from the shore til they emerged like 30--45 seconds later

[@briancanbefound]

brilliant

[@dreams2reality410]

Love how Jordy M is out there getting bleeping paid.

[@melcohen5578]

Always been the best wave in the world. For its size every other spot is off the radar.!!!!

[@NowNowMedia]

Would have too agree - no other wave like Skeleton Bay. Thanks for watching.

[@Pompomgrenade]

Thanks 👍 that was truly Beautiful 😍

[@NowNowMedia]

Thanks for watching!

[@joedirt8625]

Put me in the Game coach..Krazy

[@StaunchIndustries]

INSANE!!!

[@berndstanciu]

I hope I will surf this wave one day 🙏 it's very difficult the wave?

[@ZonNwar]

Cette vague est juste incroyable

[@alexs5394]

One of life's greatest tragedies is that this wave isn't a right

[@rockfree2639]

Beautiful

[@dronemanbigGD]

Only thing I can say is wish i was there

[@jorgeolivier3502]

Wow ! You guys were needing a jet ski to avoid the paddle.

[@NowNowMedia]

No jet skis allowed at Skeleton Bay, it's inside a national park and the locals instituted a no-lift rule back up the point to avoid people tearing around on the sandspit in 4x4s. Thanks for watching.

[@daninaylor5305]

​@@NowNowMediahow it should be!

[@nilsvondelft4742]

eeeeeeeepic!!!

[@tomlmn2036]

this place needs to be balified and PRONTO!!!

[@gregwilson9523]

Incredible ly cool

[@NowNowMedia]

Thanks for watching.

[@FawknHayn2986]

Man why cant we have a right handed wave the best wave. Its all lefts that the surf community says is the best Pipeline,oahu teahupoo,tahiti damn this is a bucket list place for me to surf

[@yournamehere6719]

Don't forget Chicama, Peru.

[@superorangeish]

Shaking head in amazement..

[@sean7841]

#DVG in in the mix again

[@yournamehere6719]

Does this place ever ratchet down a notch, non-tubing to where a good-but-not-remarkable longboarder could make use of it? Asking for a friend...

[@NowNowMedia]

Not really - Skeleton Bay is usually full tilt or flat. But there are other waves around.

[@tims6582]

Luke Thompson with the lazy boy lay back wowww

[@NowNowMedia]

Thanks for watching @tims6582 - he wrangled that wave like a champ.
