The hike/bushwhack reminds me of the days before I took up surfing. I used to bushwhack and do obscure peakbagging where I hit terrain similar to this. Looks cool to hike there. Great video!
Yaaaaa! Sick one! I'm sneaking one in with ya one of these days! I swear! Your content is getting better and better brotha so fun to watch the progression. Proud to call you my friend! 🤘🤘
Thank you so much brother! Your kind words and stoke mean the world! I'm still reminiscing of some of those epic winter sessions we shared years ago, can't wait to link up again for another session soon! Much Love! ♥🌊🙏🔥🌮🥡
Full respect. I spent years surfing uncrowded waves on the Island of Cyprus on the easter reaches of the Mediterranean Sea. There were 6 of us and the occasional traveling surfer would pass through. I spent more days surfing with my shadow than anyone else. Israel, less than a 20 minutes flight from Cyprus, was always packed in the water with heavy egos and to be honest, shitty attitudes. For us on Cyprus, we had it all to ourselves. I spent on average 148 days a year in the water there for almost 13 years until the word got and then the vibe went to shit. Left in 2013 and came back to Vancouver Island. Treasure your secret spots.
Wow, thanks for sharing your experience! It must have been amazing to be surfing those spots in the early days when there were only a handful of other people. It seems in our ever evolving world whether it's in surfing or in other aspects of life, solitude is something that always keeps us searching and having to stay one step ahead as the world changes around us. ❤️🌊
@tofinosurfphotography Honestly, the best surf years of my life. I kept a detailed surf log that spanned 13 years. Moon cycle, water temperature wave direction, period, and more. It became my almanac. 13 coptic gails of that region that were based on ancient Arabic maritime charts. You could set your clock plus or minus 72 hours off the given date. I remember when the surf was relatively uncrowded here on south Vancouver island.
Sick video Keenan and the waves were glassy and fun! It was definitely worth hiking through the dense rainforest jungle in order to score those waves with no one around🙌
Thank you brother! Glad you enjoyed it. It was nice to have the opportunity to make a video that was more challenging and adventure oriented this time! 🙏🌲🌊🏔️
Kate yelling "oh sorry!" to that frog- omg bless her heart ❤ Ps. Forest goes super quiet when there are predators around- could be you, also- could be something else, always beware!
I’ve always wanted to hike down there with a board, but I’m always too scared it’ll be flat 😂 That was great man! Thanks for sharing! 🤙🏽 What was the tide and nearby swell that day if I may ask 😅
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! I never reveal information on sensitive spots, especially in social media comments. Call me old fashioned but I prefer to let people put in the hard work and time to figure it out for themselves. It's like a rite of passage if you want to score waves off the beaten path.
I truly appreciate your stoke and desire but I don't allow people to post public comments about any sensitive or remote spots on my channel. It's all part of surfing to network and chat about spots among close friends, but public comment sections and group chats are just not the right place for that kind of discussion. 🙏
Thanks so much bro! You've been dropping some killer videos yourself lately! Both of us are experienced in first aid and usually I carry a small first aid kit in my backpack for minor stuff like sprains or cuts, as well as a device to send out an emergency call if a situation did arise.
@@tofinosurfphotography thanks man! 🤙 that spot looks magic. Is it sharky at all? I’ve been surfing with a tourniquet recently if I’m alone in the water
It's not sharky here but they definitely do cruise around farther offshore. For some reason they've never really been known to come close enough to the beaches to be an issue for surfers. It's admirable that you bring a tourniquet with you and could make a huge difference if a situation ever arose. How do you carry it on while you're surfing?
I gotta say embarrassingly I'm so stuck in the cold water mindset I forgot all about boardshorts with pockets lol. We need wetsuit pockets, the little ones they put on the legs for keys are useless and you can't even fit any snacks in it haha. This year I saw a surf photographer in Nicaragua who was drinking water from a collapsible water bottle mid session. He had it fastened to his waist somehow and I thought that was pretty genius.
Surfing.......it's the right thing to do. Good stuff, thanks fer sharin'
Thank you for sharing the stoke! 🌊❤️🤙

That's awesome, no shortage of peaks out here that's for sure! Glad it brought back some good memories! 🌊🏔️

Always thought about bring my board in there before. Never thought it was worth it.

So true! That's why I always try to hike with a buddy out here. From bears to cougars to sasquatches you never know what's out there. 😉🐻
@@tofinosurfphotography I'm gonna have to ask you in person which trail this is.. I have a couple guesses!
Great vid ! Yewwwwwww
Much appreciated! 🤙🌊❤️
Great video bro
Thank you! ❤️🌊
Would have never thought to surf here, sick video dude. Must’ve sucked to do that hike with a board though, haha.
Much appreciated! Having a board definitely makes it a cumbersome mission to say the least haha.

I would also love to know where this is, can someone tell me?

Yea sorry dude! Rule # 1, never reveal the spot 😂
froooggsssssss

What is the plan if you get hurt out there? Sick video bro
