TEAHUPOO PADDLE SESSION WITH JOHN AND NATHAN FLORENCE September 16th, 2026
Ten days old, and the Teahupoo paddle session is still the video doing the work on Nathan Florence's channel. Nothing new went up this week, so the North Shore surfer's audience went back to Tahiti, to a day he shared with his older brother John, the two-time world champion, on one of the heaviest reefs in surfing.
The title gives the date, September 16th, and the description promises the weekly videos will keep coming. For now, the paddle session draws more views each day than anything else in the catalog, ahead of an August clip in which a crowd at Lances Right in the Mentawai Islands meets one very large set. That one, titled "“LANCES RIGHT” CROWD GETS DESTROYED BY HUGE WAVE (HTs)", is nearing half a million views. A quieter Mentawai trip, "TRYING WAVES IN THE QUIET CORNERS OF THE MENTAWAI", follows behind.
Without a fresh upload, the daily views ran below their usual pace, yet about 26,000 new subscribers still arrived over the seven days, the biggest gain by far among the sports channels near his size, from rugby league to snooker. Most of those neighbors are busier by views, led by RIP Disc Golf, and GCN Racing is having an unusually lively stretch. For a channel that bills its host as surfer, knife thrower and cat lover in equal measure, a week of Teahupoo reruns is not a bad place to wait.
