What an amazing person. I hope one day instead of a documentary Jimmy Chin makes off someone else, he should make one about himself and his inspiring adventurous life!
I travelled with Keith Malloy around 2006 for the NSL. Solid guy and incredible surfer. Stoked to see the brothers helping Jimmy. Peter Mel helped me at Puerto Escondido and I’ll never forget the barrel I was able to score.
"We're going to some hollow, outer reef. Sounds pretty casual" Lmao! I was trying to eat when he said that, Frick! Lol. At first I thought he was a little known pro surfer. Then i saw his reaction to that tiny outer reef wave. Now I realise hes a climber, not a surfer. I will now continue watching. Love the Malloy's boys as well. Yep, totally worth watching. Thanks
Thats ridiculous. What exactly does a surfer look like? These guys are all highly skilled athletes and beyond any sort of stereotype. Surfing is a sport, surfing is a pleasurable pursuit, surfing is not fashion.
What an absolute legend is Jimmy Chin. A human to aspire to. And how great are his friends for helping him do this? An inspiring video indeed. Now I just want to go get shacked AF!!! 😂
Its funny, despite finding people like Jimmy extraordinary, I have never wanted to BE someone like this, but I have really wanted to STUDY them. Like, their anatomy, physiology, their brains... because there are some people just so outside the norm in not just their risk-taking, but their success when doing so, that you have to wonder “What is different about this human? What can we possibly learn from those differences?”
this was great! from someone who took their first surf trip in january, i can totally relate with Jimmy (which is something I'd never thought I'd say). thanks to the team who put this together and told this epic lil story :]
Great video. Jimmy Chin is legit. And what a great crew for him to be with. Could not have asked for more experienced watermen to guide Jimmy. I bet the next episode will be Jimmy getting shacked!. Nice job Jimmy, Mark, Jeff, Keith, and Dan!!!!
Jimmy is a BOSS. Thought for a second there he was going to compare the force of that wave to the avalanche that almost killed him. The man is a glutton for punishment.
wow. winners, retrospectively just do things , take challenges heads on without bothering about the results. that is exactly what makes them special. and that is exactly what one should live for. the EXPERIENCE! cheers.
Great vid! I've been going to Nica every year for the past 8 years, and that place is NO JOKE when it come to powerful barreling waves. Just the fact that Jimmy paddled out at Outer Reef Popoyos says a lot about the guy. If anyone wants to take an awesome surf trip with uncrowded waves, go to Nicaragua. Look up Chris Conner at "Another Day In The Life" Surf Guide. Chris will make sure you score great waves every day whatever your skill level. PURA NICA!
i was actually there for this swell and got absolutely murdered that same day they filmed at popoyo. coming from 1ft east coast garbage, i was not ready at all for 10ft popoyo hahahah
Wow so crazy at 4:29 Keith says that jimmy climbed Everest and skies down and today IN THE LINE UP that thought crossed my mind wondering if any has ever climbed it and snowboard or skies down it.
beautiful video. i wonder what it does to someone's personality to have had so many friends die in climbing accidents. i also love how he has access to a fortune in north face clothes but was wearing an old white undershirt.
I like that that's super cool giving somebody the chance and experience the only kennel only one can share with others that have the knowledge that is aloha
After being a mainlander who spent a couple years in Hawaii (beginner surfer) its insane that this man with ZERO surfing experience went and surfed double overhead outer reef. I got caught by a 6 footer at Diamondhead and thought I was gonna die.
Loved every moment of this video! So much story in a rad little video. We'll get Jimmy barreled one day; maybe try Snapper Rocks in Australia instead tho or a nice day at Blacks in San Diego instead first haha
Jimmy Chin is really living. Genuine human. Love it
@Bird Dawg of course there’s someone like you who comments nothing meaningful and has an issue with SOMETHING
Awesome, what a great attitude. Thanks for sharing this.
I'm living vicariously through Jimmy Chin videos.
What an amazing person. I hope one day instead of a documentary Jimmy Chin makes off someone else, he should make one about himself and his inspiring adventurous life!
he has, it's called Meru
I love this. The quote at 10:10 is inspiring… also if you’ve seen Meru you realize that Jimmy Chin is one of the toughest athletes ever.
This guy is everywhere. Everest, meru, El Cap. He is a beast.
Jimmy: getting barrelled is not contingent upon exiting said barrel. Personally, I think you snagged one. Keep at it! Aloha.
So amazing,this guy is living life to the full.
This is so awesome!! Jimmy Chin and all of you are incredible.. so fun to watch! Surfari Charters you ROCK 🙌!!!

Why does jimmy look like the only surfer and the rest of the guys look like serious alpinist lol
hahahaha underrated comment

@@WjB_96792surfing isn’t a sport, it’s a way of life. It’s a way of looking at those waves and saying hey bud, let’s party!
@@londonscarabin Go easy spicolli you are obviously a 🤡🤡🤡. Surfing is very much a sport and im a huge fan. Its even an olympic sport.
Haha...was thinking the same thing!
4:59 that's a loong bodysurfing ride
Legends! Super solid sandbagging gents! That wave is perfectly appropriate.
He’s just the coolest dude ever. Looking back I can totally see how his genuineness carried over into free solo.

@@kelistratton5067 from may to october during the rainy season.
I feel like all these guys found the real secret to life. Wishing this was longer!
Jimmy you LEGEND
Never get tired of great story telling.
Jimmy, Sitting here at Shyline MN and have a huge smile on my face!
That was amazing and refreshing.Enjoyed it thoroughly
My first reaction was he surfs?! Then I said of course he does!
a huge respect
what an absolute charger wow. legend!
Jimmy is going to make a movie about surfing and win an Oscar.
Awesome video. Awesome trip. Awesome everything ✌🏼
Keith was the ray of light 😆 100% barreled! Jimmy's gonna stay in the green room so long they'll have to charge him for late check-out 🤣
Dig it, This was rad, like... well... basically everything else Jimmy has a hand in.
JC and crew are awesome.
Jim is not shy at all, well done man!!!
One of the coolest dudes. Fun watch, thank you!
Wow so crazy at 4:29 Keith says that jimmy climbed Everest and skies down and today IN THE LINE UP that thought crossed my mind wondering if any has ever climbed it and snowboard or skies down it.
What a great group of people!! One of my dreams to learn how to surf and have great people likes these fellas teaching me. 🌊🌊🌊🏄♂️=freedom of soul
that’s one of my favorite breaks in nica
Don't Jimmie me Jules :)
Excellent one!
Great film, what a legend!
I have no doubt Jimmy will get barreled! Question will be if he intended to…..
this was epic with an absolute epic crew
Great episode. All these guys are rad.
Jimmy Chin is my ultimate crush :)
Jimmy going "it wasn't as bad as some other things I've felt" (like an avalanche) will never not be funny.
beautiful video. i wonder what it does to someone's personality to have had so many friends die in climbing accidents. i also love how he has access to a fortune in north face clothes but was wearing an old white undershirt.
🧗🏻♂️ If this was Jimmy's first day of surfing he easily gets the coconut award 🥥 for the best guy out! ✍️))
NICE Sheesh!!! RESPECT BRO!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊
This is FULL SEND - pretty cool to hear the back story and going for it. Well done. 🤘
Amazing film
the art of adventure
Yes Yeti! I've just discovered your channel.... really epic real authentic adventures souls, really diggin what you guys are about xx
Huge fan of Jimmy!
Great video, made my day.
Nice! Water looks sweet!
I like that that's super cool giving somebody the chance and experience the only kennel only one can share with others that have the knowledge that is aloha
Love Jimmy
Yeah jimmy🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
That's what surfing is all about
Go Jimmy.
Freaking awesome man.
After being a mainlander who spent a couple years in Hawaii (beginner surfer) its insane that this man with ZERO surfing experience went and surfed double overhead outer reef. I got caught by a 6 footer at Diamondhead and thought I was gonna die.
Nice rooster fish 😎
Wow! F###ing inspiring!!!
Dude got covered at least. Enough to get stoked. He looks like a young Mark Foo.
Surfing and climbing. Same stoke for me.
Straight rad
Legend.
Respect bro!
Nice..Nicaragua, Outer Reef Popoyo. Was my home the last 8 years.
Amazing ✌🏻
Way to go 🤙🏽
Loved it xx
Yeti pushing quality content. Will definitely pick up one of their tumblers... lol
Loved every moment of this video! So much story in a rad little video. We'll get Jimmy barreled one day; maybe try Snapper Rocks in Australia instead tho or a nice day at Blacks in San Diego instead first haha
Nice Rooster Fish!!
need a part 2!
@BC Bob So we can see JC get barrelled!
Finally saw Asian in Yeti videos!!
Popoyo ... awesome fun
This guy survived an avalanche, way worse then a wave for sure for sure
Great little video story. Where is this filmed? Looks kind of like Nicaragua.
I wonder if someone would get run over by a freight train @8:38 would they say it felt like a triple overhead?
I knew this was Popoyo right away. The best place on earth. I have a photo zine/book I shot there!
the privilege of this life style with drive, will , time and money. It doesn't get any better!
Where is it please ?
Anybody know the song at the end?
Is this the first time he surfed? He looks like a fairly competent surfer.
He was already a surfer. This trip was for him to get barreled. 🏄🏻♂️
make me feel 'I wanna get barreled too'
Interview wearing North Face hat lol
Yo!!! Jimmy looks like Pete Carroll!!!!
What kind of fish was that at the end
