How Surfers Act When It’s Crowded vs When Nobody’s Out.
Too many surfers, not enough surfers: thatsurfguy_ finds a complaint for either occasion. In the week's most-watched new upload, a surfer floating on his board calls the crowded spot a zoo. Cut to empty water, and the solitude suddenly feels less appealing. Suspenseful piano accompanies his anxious scan of the ocean.
"How Surfers Act When It's Crowded vs When Nobody's Out." is a staged comedy sketch, but the comments supply real-world variations on its premise. Viewers describe how shark thoughts arrive when they're alone and fade when someone else paddles out. One recalls years surfing a secluded Mexican point and welcoming the arrival of company; another nominates a small session with friends as the sweet spot.
The rest of the week's uploads find friction elsewhere in surf life: telling a shaper the board doesn't work, explaining beach time during work hours, and making life difficult for the person filming. That last subject currently has the most momentum, with "Surfers love making their filmer's life more difficult. @CityProApp" adding views faster than the crowded-water sketch. Core Lord also returned with a new encounter at the very end of the week.
Subscribers held steady, while daily views are running above the channel's usual level. Nearby in the sports neighborhood, The Overlap Cricket and FanaticsTV are having particularly busy spells. NobodySurf : Surfing Videos is also seeing elevated daily viewing, though thatsurfguy_'s contribution to the surfing conversation this week is less about the perfect wave than the imperfect company.

EVERY time i was the only guy out the shark thoughts start 😂 But if theres even one other person in the water it never crosses my mind
@1990sKookSee it on YouTubeYa, I surf a secluded right point in Mexico that hardly anyone surfs… gets a little creepy at times. Surfed it solo for years and was always stoked when someone would pull up and paddle out 😅
