    This video is so beautiful! The ending nearly brought me to tears! I love how you’re not only surfing in a beautiful foreign country but you emerge yourself in its culture and with the natives! I love the ending is so wholesome and to me I saw Humanity. You’re so respectful and kind to everyone you met and it shows how much you care about the earth, wildlife and people! Much respect and love for everyone in this video 🤍🤙🏽

    Hole in the wall!! I went there a while back but the waves were to small to surf through it and it is much more sketchy to surf through it than it looks on camera so I probably would have chickened out last minute😂 so we ended up just surfing the ankle high reforms

    When I think of the best memories, enjoyable times it's unquestionably surfing with my closest friends in Florida in College. I bring this up because you are living it all around the World. Quite humbly I might add. Enjoy your life - keep going!!
    Really enjoy your vids 🤙

    As far as I know, South Africa is known to be very sharky. How do you decide where it's safe to paddle out, especially when you are exploring like this? Props to you for the awesome adventures. Liked and subscribed.

Dude every episode is crazy with the challenges you guys and girls have to do in the competition, but you guys and girls are killers on the wave. Keep on surfing dude and God bless you and your family.

    Hey Koa,
    I've heard you say you get Sea Sick....I'm a surfer and a sailor and always got Very sea sick and tried everything and nothing worked until I found out about this..."STUGERON" also known as Cinnarizine.
    I take wrong to 30mg 1 hour prior to boating and 1/2 that amount 8 hours later if needed.
    I'VE NEVER BEEN SEA SICK SINCE...You can't buy it direct from the USA...I order it online from Canada...you can also get from Mexico. Its AWESOME!!!!
    Any questions let me know....
    I'm not a Dr. so do your own research.
    PS...love the vids, keep them going!
    Later

    UN/WEF says Namibia has the best road infrastructure in Africa. Their claws are sunk in for the 4th Industrial Revolution... same as India, Singapore, Malaysia, S. Korea, Davos- Switzerland & So on... Targeted areas of "The Great Reset" Blockchain crypto control & Artificial Intelligence 24/7 monitoring(smart cities) What is the Great Reset going to do to these folks that live off the land? UN/WEF want every single green bean to have individual bar codes, every single farm animal to be closely monitored to avoid disease outbreaks, every single human vaccinated with GMO MRNA Experimental Vaccines... Having to show their papers to enter grocery stores? Indigenous Cultures are about to be all but erased from existence as if what has happened up to this point is not bad enough. A Global Control Grid is being hard wired to our new digital society & they will simply delete whom ever they decide... Just like they are "Canceling" people for thinking differently simply because they know they have the power via technology to do so.

    Koa and Sam you guys rock I love the interaction of the locals and of course the wild life, unlike the other Koa that he loves to do more talking than surfing but I can’t say anything bad about the guy “FACT” because he rips in any lineup.
