The Sketchiest Wave I've Ever Surfed (DRY Reef)

It's been a journey to finally get out and catch a few at the scariest wave that I've ever surfed. It's amazing to me that I've been able to continue to find absolute dreamers of novelty waveds along my journey for the dream! We've been experiencing some amazing surf here on the island & apparently there's more on the way! Thanks for everything!! - Ben

I just found your channel yesterday completely randomly while watching glacier calving videos, and haven’t stopped watching your videos yet! Surfing glacier waves in Alaska??? Marianas? Right up against & around a razor sharp reef??? Like, who does that?!?! What a genuine treat you are, Ben Gravy! Love your positive vibe, sense of adventure, fun, & pure joy! I’d never heard of surfing novelty waves as a goal before, but I’m super here for it! Your wife, friends, & team are amazing too! Keep on being YOU… For The Dream!!! 🤙

[@BenGravyy]

Thanks so much!!

[@andrejolly1]

Bro. You’re freaking killing it! Content adventures life everything! Prob one of the most entertaining and positive channels out right now. Keep it coming man!

[@chadgrabner4136]

This reminds me of clever street skaters turning urban structures into performing arts. Here Gravy has introduced street smarts to surfing with his innovative Wave Grind. His fins are the new axels

[@kalemhall5023]

Interesting to see how quickly you adapted to that wave... really dicey but one of my favourite videos this year. Thanks.

[@peacepuffz]

Doing your thing for the Boots & Shorts revolution, so many times I wished I had worn boots but was'nt brave enough & my feet got shredded.

[@s.collett1080]

I love all these pros on The ASL (Armchair Surf League) telling you how to improve and this and that. They are the one's saying it's not surfable and sitting over at Sandals having the time of their life!

[@barne3668]

The ASL...HILARIOUS! I love it. S. Collett you just made my day haha OMG LOL

[@rj8557]

You coulda got barreled and done a air over the rock at least

dude, Gravy stay living the dream in the land of Yarnia

Looks like a Mason's Ho wave. Im ready!

[@shockgtheshawnyboy]

That looks super fun, 🌞 out, warm/clear water, trunking it! Sign me up! Just miss that reef, so you don't do what I did before! I ripped my fin/fin boxes right out the bottom of my board one time hitting a shallow reef!

Some waves aren’t meant to be surfed. Ben : Ok

The best dry reef surf i seen. Da one you go barreled was the besr ever.Mason Ho's dry reef vids is second when it comes yo dis one. Dude, the last wave was sooo deep and you made it

[@mckdogdrums3543]

That gave me ptsd just watching how close you got man. That is clearly the definition of gnarly.. lol 😅 kudos man you got big kahunas. Most people would just watch that and not even imagine it a surfable spot but you went in for it!

[@Nellosphere]

It's ALL wavey in the Gravy navy This situation seems sketch ballz because so much depends on what the wave wants to do but Ben's intuition is phenomenal. FTD

[@wisdomoverfear2685]

If the wsl had a nutsack they'd make this a stop on the tour ! Epic !

Next time you're in Hawaii. Have the boys take you to 3rd dips Yokohama. Similar. Again, nice seeing you out in Florida West Coast couple weeks ago. Mahalos for the selfie.

[@FreeEditsForYou]

Dang Ben haha thats sketch, good stufff. Niice liittle barrel

[@UberMick]

On a slightly bigger swell and slightly lower tide that outside peak would be fire!

[@BenGravyy]

Absolutely!

[@cjhenry41]

There is a rarely breaking peak in San Diego , it's a peak in the reef area that breaks really short into a small cove. It is sooooooo hairball. Full sideways drop into the sketchiest boil and short barrel. Your spot is even less ridable.

[@saltyconvict7000]

Perfect for the boogie 👌🏼

[@bambina772]

I know Bahamian rocks when I see them 😂

[@barne3668]

Shhh...ben didn't mention the location on purpose. gotta respect that spot for the community and not the world of kooks. thanks

[@dannykish]

Respect the shitty waves man!!

[@magiccheeseball]

Yeah and I was thinking it was the Bahamas since they were just in Florida and now in a car with right hand drive steering wheel

[@shlermjuice8068]

@@barne3668 Honestly think trying to hide locations for spots like these is unnecessary, there is nobody out and it's located in the Bahamas lol... pretty small chance of it becoming an overcrowded spot... For places that are more likely to draw crowds though it's a different story.

The Bahamas looks epic!

Great video 🔥

[@laowai2000]

One of most memorable barrels is seeing a dry rock at the exit. Left through the back of the wave unscathed. Board was not so lucky, lost the tip.

[@daniel7___]

10:50 first wave in front of reef. And no barrel on the slab at all, which is what slabs are meant for.

[@Freeride_Traveling]

#ONTHEHUNT🤟🏼🤟🏼

[@bsmbB]

Sick! There's a break on oahu that's pretty rare to catch good and it barrels 2-3 feet away from a small reef shelf the sticks up about 2 feet out of the water. Great motivation to make the barrel lmao only gets 3 ft max but hollow

[@trentsurridge2679]

Love it💯🌊💪🤙😎

[@floearthling7449]

That slab reminded me of the Australian surf movie "Facing Monsters". If you haven't seen it, go watch it...it's nuts!!! Fully nuking🙌🤙

Gotta check that out ! I’ve seen the trailer

When are going to surf the pink sands of Surfer's Beach on Eleuthera? That is what I want to see.

shhh...ben doesn't mention names of spots on purpose. surfers code. just keep all that to yourself or the beach you mentioned and the one in the video will be overun with kooks...btw I've been all over Eluthera and the locals are freindly but don't want the place advertised on the net.

Faria park would leave you with nothing but dry reef when you tucked into a barrel.. there's a no name break a few hundred yards south of Supertubes that would grind 20ft from the granite jetty rocks that buffer PCH..

[@mikeoliver861]

Is this Costa Rica? I know I should have been following more closely and I would know where it is, my apologies.

[@barne3668]

shhh...you don't wanna know...ben left that part out on purpose. any time he does that it's for a reason. i've been to that island and the locals don't want the 'world' showing up because people blabbed on the internet. nothing personal but just beware that when Ben doesn't tell us because there's a good reason

[@mikeoliver861]

Well that’s not really much of a surf spot. It’s only Gravey’s awesome skills that makes it rideable I know I would never go for it, I’m not as skilled or brave as him.

[@scottyknowsurf]

Beach Break. Buts its a reef break! And then a slab aswell. Yeeuuw
