No such thing as free lunch I guess. Got bitten on the face by a tomcat (you wanna google it) but just couldn't keep myself out the water with a pumping swell like that. It was worth it 🙌🏼
Awsome vídeo ... Been there in 94 and 2011 , such a sick wave ... However If you think It is good , Java , G_land IS insane ... Cheers , god blas you !!!
Nic, I love the fact that you’re showing the accommodation at DP that you dragged your chick half way across the planet to stay at. I’ve stayed in that exact same spot with my girlfriend and almost left single. Also, sucks you got bit by some type of an insect. I got stung by a giant red hornet in Bali while riding a moped, damn near swerved into an oncoming bus. Amazing how something so small manages to hurt so bad. But, things could always be worse, like lack of swell…
I almost thought that this video was a rerun I can remember your last encounter with a spider bite to the face and that one looked way worse May you have a speedy recovery my friend No worries and Thanks for sharing another epic session with us mere mortals Be well and God Bless You and Yours 👍🤘
met Nick several times on surf trips or comps here n there... Such a cool dude and nice to everybody in and out of the water! Super Role model for the up and coming rippers! thanks for always showing hospitality Nic! Mahalo
Only an easy wave if you’re Nick Von Rupp. Truth is that beginner intermediates should choose other waves. These guys make it look easy .. but it’s not easy. If the rip doesn’t drag you out to sea, then the razor sharp coral will slice you up on your first mistake. Proceed with caution.
What a day at D.P....Your eye looked better after your surfed..the saltwater cleaned it up....Great tubes especially on the inside..Thanks for sharing ...
Epic! I just made a comment referring to 1988. Boat only. No crowds. If you tried to land or camp, it wasn’t pretty. Some guys got really messed up. It was great time to explore and find places see things never or rarely photographed/ filmed.. ✌🏼
oh man! respect keepin the vibs up with such a nasty bite! amazin waves!!! never had the chance to go to desert point, had one great session in gili 14years ago , back these days was still really hard to travel deep in lombok, but indo magic days!!
This one is a raw version and you can watch all the parts we didn't put in the edit 2 years ago. That's what with aim for with the raw cuts, to get you guys closer to the action
i really wanted to see th paddle out didnt look like a channel or was tht like a hour long next time if its narly paddle speed it up please but keep it in
Thanks for the feedback. And no there's no channel, you gotta walk on the reef and time it right so you can start paddling in between the sets. It can be quite easy but it can be hell too.
Well we used to surf it with zero amenities or people and if you got hurt - which was always - then you'd face real problems. Amazing you are whining about it when you've surfed some pretty out there waves.
there is literally no visible reaction on our face , you absolutely are one of the best goofy footer's on earth, you charge to the point where you command respect, from all of the surfing community , but you have become more and more unlikable with your progression through life, as a person, this is not a knock on your surfing ability at all, you used to be such a nice kid,
