Please add more story telling and explanation in future vids. It‘s also very interesting when you seriously talk about yourself and why you‘re doing certain things. Please tell us about pipeline, maybe also the line up organization of the crowd. Great episode!!!
"Not much going on at the North Shore"... just a quick look out the window behind Jamie and you see Lake Pipeline, yeah I would say not much going on but Waxson is in town again and would love to see a meet up.
Loved the vlog today! Sitting down in front of the camera to explain to us what you do and why you do it is something so special and very interesting! Appreciate that JOB! Staying PSYCHED!
Brah honestly a 5-6ft face at Waimae hurts like a 10ft face at most point breaks. The way it folds on itself and slabs on the sandbar is just heavy. That left by jump rock is mayjah lol
@@808bboarder Doesn't take much of a wave there to get tossed right on the sand. Great way to get hurt. Crazy to see Jamie charging huge shore break there, but he is smart and has a ton of knowledge of the ocean. Bailing feet first should be the big takeaway for groms watching!
@@GrooveDuude After getting tossed on the sand a couple times at Waimea I decided I'd rather not end up in a wheelchair the rest of my life. Some of the stuff these guys do with shorebreak (and jet skis!!!) is scary!
Man it makes me so happy to watch you post this. After getting wrecked over and over here in CR yesterday and loving every minute of it this gets me so stoked to keep paddling out. Thabk you for this!!!
And Log Cabins when it's huge is so scary but definitely waimea shore break has fucked me bad even at just 5 and 6 feet faces at waimea when the life gaurds everybody how dangerous the break is and telling all the kooks to get out of the water every 5 minutes on the microphone 🤣🤣🤣. For real when waimea shore break has just a little power those lifeguards are on it with their speaker phones LOL but log cabins just scares the hell out of me especially since I went snorkeling over there in the summer and I had already served log cabins like a hundred times before I went snorkeling and saw the bottom and it scared the shit out of me
Hey Jamie! Can you make a series of how to surf please? I also was thinking of how cool it’s be if you make a series called “Will It Surf?” Where you get a bunch of gnarly boards or random objects to see if they’ll be surfable 😅 JUST AN IDEA
Brah?!?! I almost drowned when I was 14 at Waimea shore break on 10ft on da head. Caught the perfect close out,could fit a truck inside and survived. But got caught inside no leash so was just me and waves dat was doubling up. Went under and couldn’t figure out which way was up and had to kick off the bottom. Best and scariest day all at the same time.
It's nice just listening to you chatting and describing the breaks and sessions you've had. Not that I dont enjoy your other vlogs but this one is particularly cool.
Love watching your videos Jamie because your live for surfing and living is infectious….. but that keiki shore break looks absolutely mental. 👍👌 stay safe, don’t break anything.
This is *INSANE* 🤯🤪 🌊🤙🌊 The biggest shore break I ever played in was 5-6 ft max and it felt pretty intense. I mean I am nowhere near a big wave surfer lol, I love to hang out right in the knee to head high waves, novelty is super enjoyable for me, I just can't even imagine the pounding as I watch this. Absolutely incredible. I can understand the draw though. The power and suction and pounding and roar of the shorebreak does something to your soul. It is so therapeutic. It makes all the difficulties and challenges in life feel so much smaller, the rumbling and roaring when you are under and being pummeled and tossed around just imbibes this power into your being...... at least for me. It is cleansing and you come out excited yet deeply calm. I can't even grasp how much bigger these waves are than what I experienced it is awesome. Awe inspiring. I love this video so much. 🥰
I remember I was a little keiki just getting into water sports. 1st vid of yours I watched was Freakside. Changed my life. And from that point to the remainder of my youth I was in HASA. Thank you for that. I'm so happy that you are out here sharing your passion, knowledge and lifestyle with those all around. 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
Aloha from Texas! I got the privilage to go to this beach twice last week and I Loved it!! Much respect to the surfers who have that passion like a flame. See you guys soon next year! Mahalo!
Crazy and Gnarly waves Jamie. You and your crew hard core!!! I like watching your V Logs. Older now and more brittle. Keep Charging Brother!!! Aloha, Tom.
Great vlog as always. You mentioned "people have drowned" , thinking back to the 70's growing up on the North shore (go Red Raiders) and the friends I surfed with who are no longer with us. One in particular is Ronnie Burns, one of THE best and most influential surfers back in the day, and is no longer with us. I'm wondering if you could do a segment of these guys, maybe show some clips, just to help keep those memories alive. Aloha.
Jamie your willingness to take these insane sketchy shore break mega beatings is crazy. Every time I watch I fear for your spinal cord. Don't stop 'cause it makes for the best vlogs lol
This was so helpful - and accurate -used to drive up there (summer ) mornings , on airline layovers from Ala Moana . I’ll stick to your school at Tina Size Turtle Bay
Notice Porto Escondido is out Close out and crowds now.. Back in the day the train ran but sometimes you seen light.. Jamie you could tame the Mexican pipeline maybe next year you paddle.
I grew up in the 60 s and I get it we had the wedge all to our selves before it was famous we got pummled there and thrashed beyond belief I love the shore breaks it would kill me now lol great vlog loved it Jamie!!!!!!!
Waimea is my favorite spot for a bit of smaller wave body surfing. The shore break can sometimes suck ALL the water off the sand and the wave crashes right into the sand. Gotta watch out for the rip current in the middle. Waves come in the sides but go out the middle.
I wish I would have went out to Cali when I was younger. Always wanted to learn to surf. I'm 56 way outta shape and over-weight to do that now. Love watching your videos.
Dude you are FEARLESS! Either that or you're a masochist 😉 Going for those Keiki closeouts is like jumping into a lion cage wearing a toga made of raw meat! And that one backside shore break wave you made at Waimea was freaking EPIC!!!
Me and my mate Bernie used to surf a close out, wedge style peak every summer when the on-shores would whip up these nasty peaks, this was in northern NSW in the 80's, and it was same thing, late drop insane barrel, then smashed on the sand. What it did was make us better surfers when the surf was actually good and heavy, it gave us courage and skills to go after big heavy nice waves on big swell days. We would maybe make one wave in a 100 on those closeouts but we went for everything and constantly egged each other on to take a more gnarly wave than the last.
JOB - I dig how you gave an overview of these spots in this vid. Nice way to change things up. Here’s something that I think a lot of us would appreciate…Can you do a video where you explain what you’re doing with your body inside a close-out barrel to minimize impact/damage? Since we can’t see you in there, how are you contorting your body inside the closing tube? Are you trying to shoot yourself straight out the back to avoid being slammed down further by the heavy lip? What are you doing with your arms/hands? Any insight to share on that would be awesome. 🤙🏼
Even the one you made was like.......... a" Hail Mary " ride ! For the record it looks to me like any session you survive surfing that shore break at the Bay is a successful session !
I miss this place. I was a little girl facing those waves in the 70s. Before kids died from stuff lol. I still have dreams of being pulled down the slope, or clinging to the rocks with the waves lashing at my ankles. Priceless memories. They are not ptsd kine, but very emotional to me
If you have been surfing long enough, shore breaking waves can be all for you to enjoy. Once at upper trestles i found a inside lil left, the guy shooting rolls was with sufer magazing. Verbally got my address and sent me 2 full rolls I was totally shocked. Now Im A doctor in rural health, but I was a surfer, before digital and internet. Also filmed at Campus Point Isli vista. Love the edit
I met this dude in prison many years ago. Mike Darahbond RIP plenty hours kept trading stories about our home turf. His stories about pulling into Waimea shore break when they where keikis was legendary… I always thought of Waimea being a big wave spot … more then that a spot where legends are made ! A Hui Hau Aku No 🙏🏾 #legendsneverdie
I dunno know....I think Cabo west cape (sunset beach in front of Pueblo Bonito) shore break on a big day, and a couple southern Oregon spots near me are way gnarlier. I lived on north side Maui, Mexico, Cali, and Oregon and by far Oregon has them all beat for size.
How’s it Jamie? 1st everyone who surfs loves shore pound. 2nd Pinballs was my first experience at the bay in 1991 I was 15 and stoked out my mind 3nd Keiki Beach park get heavy too, very heavy Stay perpetually psyched brother from another mother🤙🏼

The shore break at my home break only gets to like 5-6ft max and it gets mega shallow and SKECTH. I can only imagine 12ft Waimea 😳😬

Seems more like a body sacrifice ....a broken neck is a high price for a closeout..... IMHO
Word. I dislocated my clavicle at 3-4’ Windansea shore break, hockey checking dry sand. 😂
@@GrooveDuude After getting tossed on the sand a couple times at Waimea I decided I'd rather not end up in a wheelchair the rest of my life. Some of the stuff these guys do with shorebreak (and jet skis!!!) is scary!
Actually one of my fave videos this year. Especially having you explain what attracts you to the shore-break closeouts =)
Surf knowledge... please keep sharing, I think it adds another element to the videos. Also thanks for the GP10 (best B-Day ever!)
Yes, get into the deets brah
Stay blessed and have a good day Braddah Mike 🤙
I'm not even a surfer but enjoyed the lesson.
Lots of closeouts at home has been really frustrating. Thanks for a great lesson to keep trying the unmake-able, or maybe just break a neck. Respect!
Man it makes me so happy to watch you post this. After getting wrecked over and over here in CR yesterday and loving every minute of it this gets me so stoked to keep paddling out. Thabk you for this!!!
do one on Off the Wall.... which is the only place in my mind more scary size for size than keiki

FINALLY some insights! Love it, makes it way more special!
It's nice just listening to you chatting and describing the breaks and sessions you've had. Not that I dont enjoy your other vlogs but this one is particularly cool.
Jamie!!! Thank you 🙏 for coming through.
God speed. Good luck with everything.
Your a legend.

Absolutely insane boys....pure psych!!! Yeewww
So fun to see this video. Thanks to share knowledge to improve the practice.
Only very few people can do what you do. It‘s absolute extreme sport. You make it look so easy.

Stay Psyched!!!! Love the vids Jamie
A favorite quote of Jamie's from a Keiki session "complete detonation" that sums it up I think. Stay safe and keep surfin.
Love it. Want it. You guys rock!! You’re golden

You must have one hell of a chiropractor and spine doctor. Love your videos.
The Biffzilla Montage was awesome!
I used to love the shorebreak when i was younger, leaner & agile. Maybe try again with a softy….
Biggest shore break ive ever gotten was over here on maui. It was about 13 ft. I pulled into the barrel on my body board. Psyched!!
This was a cool video James. When Tina & Sally going to get a Barrell. that would be a great series cause it would be a series of

I was lucky to be there that day at Waimea shooting photos, what a day! I got some amazing photos.
I'm sore all over from watching this. Goodness....good stuff!!
jamie, ur music for the edits is killing me brotha
Great video JOB ! I have the wedge. Where i live i keep missing you.
If you have been surfing long enough, shore breaking waves can be all for you to enjoy.

1970. Butch VanArtsdalen taught me how to do cut backs. He was with Eddie as a lifeguard at Waimea Bay. Fearless!
Awesome! My late drops into large close outs at Jordan R, were worth it lol
chaotic. sick video - way to charge!
These explainer style vids are great man! Would love to see more.
I coming in December to see this Psyched Break!
That is so heavy. Props
The 3 second ride....what a thrill
Did you try Its beach in Santa Cruz? VERY heavy too and the water being cold is more dense.
Love the insight!
I'm chasing tornados today in Missouri, and even I think you are nuts!
love your energy
I’m just amazed you don’t have more injuries - titanium man!
Wow so sick that’s a power trip don’t get hurt man stay safe
