It's definitely a scene everyone can respect, surfer or not.... Did you like the film? We want to do a lot more like this and would love to hear your feedback...
@@RedBullSurfing just my opinion but i didnt rate it. reason being that it didnt really seem to have a purpose, subject matter or focal point. Just bits a pieces filmed over the event and thrown together that really said nothing, let alone of worth or offered any insight to the comp, locals, location or competitors. maybe i missed the point of it all and if so i apologies for my negativity and i just guess personally that this isnt the type of mateial that appeals to me. aloha from torquay
Wow good for you sheldon I knew you when you where struggling through life. We would always say hello to each other out in the line up super proud someone from the west side is representing.
Love the "Brotherhood" of surf'n. Everyone wants everyone to be successful, Herbie Fletcher is still "stoked" and the locals speak'n "pigeon" thus we have subtitles .... too Good. Surf'n and the "lifestyle" is the Best .... be kind in the water to Your Brother.
Stoked to have witnessed this great comp., @ WSL! Represent Long Island Balaram, wtg! BTW, I was privileged to have seen you compete at the QS-Pro NY 2011! Epic.
I don't know how to explain it but there seemed to be some real pain and darkness in the face of that Paishon guy. And in general his whole crew, including Rothman, had such subtly heavy energy, like people that have seen some shit in their life and went through the route of violence and assertiveness rather than vulnerability and compassion. It was so noticeable that it made for compelling if uncomfortable viewing. Such contrast with what most of us associate with surfing i wonder if anyone felt that way or has some background on the dark side of surfing in Hawaii
Interesting insights Sandro. Another perspective to consider is that the local kids feel a lot of pressure when it comes to the big contests on the North Shore. Every year, their sleepy community is bombarded by visiting pros, aspiring pros, and every surfer in-between, so the competitive level in the water is more intense than anywhere else on Earth. The local kids who themselves are pros want more than anything to show the visiting pros how it's done in the water, especially at waves like Pipe. And, next to the Pipe Masters, the Volcom Pipe Pro is considered the ultimate prize. There have been lots of great magazine stories written about North Shore surf culture, which you should check out!
A red bull advertisemunt for Volcom.. No soul.. Everyones tryung tu make a dollar off of surfurs butnthey dont have any soul left either theyre just conpetition robots doing what theyre told
dude where have you been?! lol, the 'youth against establishment' became 'the establishment' nearly 10 years ago when it was purchased by PPR whose umbrella contained gucci and YSL among others. its been sold again only this month to ABG whose umbrella contains brands like Michael Jackson, Nautica, Aéropostale, Juicy Couture, Airwalk, Vision, Tapout, Above The Rim, Marylin Monroe etc......looks like a fucking graveyard of brands!
love it when the boys are amped for each other
"You must learn my friend, ive learned from you too" 👌
I've never really got into surfing but god this scene looks so supportive everyone looks so nice and chill

@@RedBullSurfing I loved it I just wish I got to see more vlogs and everything about their lifes of a surfer and their friends and what they do

I bet ya behind the scenes it would be clickie as fuck like most surf skate and snow scenes shame ruins the sport
I feel like JOB knew Paishon had made a mistake and bailed. Might not have but respect if he did! This video is epic, get psyched !!!
JOB still a legend and because he wore the speedo.
Legend indeed 🙌🏼
@@RedBullSurfing so much so i bet he even bailed on purpose...
@Alejandro Tobienne Idk man... Looks and feels like he wanted little man to catch a win
Edit: honestly who cares tho about comps
He even titled his video in his channel. I did a comp in speedos. Classic Jamie .

Totally felt that vibe. Pipe is such a different environment than anywhere else
Felt it too

I noticed that too. Hard to explain but his eyes said so much.
@@lateapex9420 it's called being Insecure Punks and Thugs and Gangsters...Rejects!
I miss the good old days when corporate America didn’t own the sport 😕 but Jamie is still the man r
This was raw!! Loved it!
me-so-psyched. I need the board for 6ft warm waters. yeoouuhh
Hell yeah Balaram gettin some advice by Nathan Fletcher. Way to rep Long Beach NY.. makin the finals at the Volcom pipe pro.
There are few better sensei's than Nathan, that's for certain...
This is completely irrelevant sort of... but whoever was in charge of the microphone/audio situation for this video did amazing. 👍🏻
That Sheldon fella looks like he is going through withdrawal or something. Look uber tweaked
he was actually. good eye.
If someone could harness Matt Bemrose's intensity as a power source you would have enough energy to power all of Oahu :)
😂 🤔
More videos like this
Noted! 🙌🏼
Jesus now I know where Rockstar got their inspiration for Trevor from in GTA V (Nathan Fletcher).
great fun
Dahm I miss seeing people hug in celebration like that!
Imagine if Ballaram had won!!

@@RedBullSurfing excellent
