THE STORM CLEARED AND THE WAVES ARRIVED!

Video summary

Press to jump

1:14Nathan tests the powerful wind on a grassy coastal hillside, with his jacket blowing over his head.
2:32Nathan and Mahina scout waves breaking over shallow rock reef from their car.
4:24Coffee stops and misty countryside break up the search for surf.
5:11Nathan paddles out for a smaller-wave session along the coast.
8:44The heavy slab-barrel session begins, with tube rides over shallow reef.

Nathan Florence leans into an Irish gust hard enough to let it hold him up, before his jacket blows over his head. The ocean isn't the only thing supplying resistance in his sole upload of the week, "THE STORM CLEARED AND THE WAVES ARRIVED! ".

With Mahina Florence beside him, the trip involves plenty of looking before paddling. From their car, they watch swell fold over shallow rock reef and weigh whether it's rideable. Mahina's concern is direct: "I don't know if I want you to try that alone." Later, the wind shakes the car.

Coffee stops, misty countryside and a smaller-wave session make the wait part of the film rather than something to skip. Then come the heavy slab barrels, with Nathan riding inside thick tubes over shallow reef. The upload has reached roughly 150,000 views and is the channel's busiest video right now.

The comments have a particularly cinematic thread: viewers discuss the music, scenery and gradual build toward the bigger surf. One recalls watching surf films in a Huntington Beach theater in the early 1980s; another singles out the wave around the twelve-minute mark.

Nathan added 2,000 subscribers over the week, though that is a much gentler gain than his past month's growth. Daily views are also a little below their usual level. The Hossegor upload remains the next-busiest draw, followed by the Teahupoo paddle session with John that we reported here during October's pause. This time, Ireland supplies the fresh chapter, complete with weather worth leaving in the edit.
