[@austinhewlett1793]

stoked on surfing with family. but really glad dad got no credit for organizing the road trip and getting snacks and making it happen. I thought I was the only one. Good on ya dads all over-not doing it for the cheers-doing it because we love our families.

[@chazschuck9017]

Nice to watch guys surf with style for once! Dad and son both rip. Lived in NZ for a couple years when I was younger, and fondly remember surfing in Taranaki for a few months! Great waves, and quite uncrowded by my Cali standards.

[@tai_vs_dad]

Thanks

[@paperbarktree8895]

Such a beautiful video. Makes me want to go back home to the west coast and spend the days surfing and laughing with family. You fellas give off such nice vibes and shred too. Get tai onto the twinny hey dad... once he sees how much better they work, he’ll never get off it ay. 🙏 😊 🌊

Great video mate..!!!!!!! Congrattulations , that's the way to guide a surfer son, for the loving and the care of Nature's Greatness. God Bless you.

[@kennicolson9124]

cool vlog man..father and son, awesome..the kid rips so we will see him in the nationals soon. he also has a really confident attitude. will carry him a long way. good dad..good role model

[@KandMe1]

Just 17 when I first went to Taranaki from Chch looking for surf adventure. Went back and spent 4-5 years there at the age of 19. It's cool to watch this thanks. Seeing the mountain for the first time was a highlight. I remember seeing it from near Stratford I think it was so amazing and other times coming that same route at night the moon low out over the ocean looks so big it really is an amazing place. Yeah not to mention the surf haha.

[@madebyfy7260]

Just trying to ride out my lockdown level 4 blues and this was sooooo good to watch. Reminds me of my youth as a Whanganui grom, heading up the coast with my God father and his son and freaking my shit out at Mangahume in a 4m swell, on a soft foam boogie board I got at Kmart... 30 years later and still a grom!! Beautiful surfing to watch, by the way. Cheers for sharing.

[@haydentumata178]

Awesome vlog keep them coming !! U 2 are Ripping and having fun whanau yeeow

[@surfdog306]

Killing it on the fish cuz!!!

[@guyfitter3006]

Brilliant work guys. Best viewing in ages. Yes!

[@a.lame.username.]

You were so lucky to get that most southern spot so good! Epic video 👌 Thank you.

[@tai_vs_dad]

yeah we were and still are so stoked

[@miketkong2]

Loving those fishy lines and the family vibes. Nice cuzz~! Ripping!

[@Sanderman1]

Man loving the vids bro. So epic sharing these special times dad and son 🤙🏼

[@jasonpine3539]

IMHO, great father, rips, pushes his stoked grom into waves. Super great video.

[@jamesbadham9665]

Super-nice vid. You and your kid surf well but don't talk about it. You got an easy vibe. And, well, New Zealand. Been there a couple of times. Would live there in a minute.

[@asafshatz3007]

Great trip and surfing. Nz is the best. The skate is very cool to watch. Thanks

[@telycasta]

Epic matey. So good to share with the young un. 🙏

[@rodbarrett1581]

Watching your vids are enjoyable and torture at the same time. Nothing but crumble and closeouts here in So Cal for weeks on end. Despite what the surf mags say , it rarely gets good around here. Watching all the points you guys are blessed with over there is mind blowing. Some times you guys pass on breaks that are firing and I'm like " Noooooooooo" !! Your killing me. If I had the worst of New Zealand's waves here where I live I would be in bliss. Would love to come visit your land but not wearing the face diaper or getting the jab jab. Enjoy !!!

[@chazschuck9017]

As a Santa Cruz native I lived in NZ for a couple years and I sorely miss it. Waves in Santa Cruz are actually quite similar to these set ups in Taranaki from the video where I lived for a bit, but way more crowded here... Definitely miss NZ. More points on both coasts than anybody could imagine with 1% the number of people on them. Special place.

[@ronmorris1151]

Great vlog ill be keeping an eye out for more good kiwi surf and surfing .

[@azzanaki6368]

Awesome mate, I like your style on that board your flow is nice.

[@MegaMr28]

best way to spend time with ya kid.. I go every april/may to NZ surfing.. love that place..surfed all those spots last april.. I should be there now but we are all on this lockdown craziness.!! I hear in NZ you guys aren't allowed to surf..crazy.. Sydney beach's are closed but a couple hrs south we can surf.. well for now anyway.

[@jamesdouglas657]

[@bobryan8793]

What great family life impressive good on ya

[@supernaturalbassjigs]

Great Father Son adventure documentary! Thank you for sharing. Years ago I traveled from my home here (East coast USA) to NZ, I surfed up and down the east coast of the North Island, hit some really obscure places, Whiritoa, Whangamata- The waves were really fun and the people were fantastic- The best part was I left USA in January- freezing cold- and of course NZ was in summer. NZ is one of the best surf destinations on Earth!

[@jonsalvador5051]

[@gypsywilliams778]

Keep the vlogs coming guys

[@allanstill867]

Surfed Mungas and sky williams for 20 years great waves when its on

[@xkoociesyt6870]

Mungahume never worked much , more ridable waves at Sky Williams , not so good after the bay was dredged for shingle for the on shore Maui at Oaonui. Before this Sky Williams was lined with kelp . The dredging also caused a lot erosion causing a loss cliffs and lost the road to the beach . I owned that property for a number of years .David Harvey

[@Hayden-sp1ol]

My kid runs from me...... and burns me on waves! Gotta love it

[@kennicolson9124]
