Did you just say "neuroplasticity"?

Years ago there was a pecking order, Lenny Foster, John van Ornum , Junior Beck, and I was a kid.. when they first built the jetties, it was amazing! Really enjoying watching you surf brother.

Aaahhh this reminds of a trip I had when a friend and I surfed 6-8ft lowers with very few people out back in 2014. Mind you it was pretty damn windy, but the waves still held their own and were a blast to ride. I think we surfed for about 5 hours straight. I was so thirsty and hungry afterwards I had a coke, a chocolate shake, burger, fries, and chicken fingers at Ruby’s diner that evening. And then shit my brains out the next day. Good times.

Amazing way to go Koa! Love this content!

Hope you never stop making these videos man, the film is great and it brings such a nice casual feeling to surfing, hopefully ill see you at 56th sometime, or rockies, pretty sure i was standing right next to ur house a few months ago right next to a little path down to the beach on northshore bc i saw a pickup truck with a this is livin hat in the back, found a grey fin near the trashcan while walking out and thought it might be yours Lol.

The trick for lowers: one person gets dropped off and takes the boards and bags, the other drives one exit up, parks the car and skates down 🤙🏽

4:37 Koa fsho knew the barney would have wax 🤣🤣🤣

Represent my braddah! For da boyz back home.. “ I’ll swing!” Yeah you!!! Thumbs up!👍🤙🏼🤙🏼

Man! You're making me miss home! Grew up in Newport, now in Austin TX and missing the ocean like crazy! Thanks for sharing.

Sooooo sick bro. Good to see you’re ripping

That first sesh was an all out expression session. Those waves were fast and you charged so hard to stay ahead. That was one of most agro sessions I've seen from you IMO.

Thanks for showing that bit of you talking to the guy from your surgeons office. That was cool to see your impromptu follow up

Ha ha it's so funny watching you about the way to uppers!

Glad to see you ripping my man! I usually surf uppers but might have to venture to lowers when I get better.

Loved the video you going back to Hawaii i like it there better the waves are better and much more beautiful stay blessed stay safe 🎸 on it is a small world.

I’ll swing!..haha..Classic Madhouse Session.🤙🏻☠️🤟🏻X

yo koa when is then next big surf trip with nate and all the boys ? keep up the great vids !!

You’re the best koa!

Can’t believe you’re passing on Venice Breakwater for Lowers! Lol. Hysterical video today! Look forward to watching you rip Indo. Goofies rule 👊🏽

Got to surf with you out there on Tuesday. Cheers Koa, keep ripping mate 🤙

“Crowds super hectic” *wavestorm washes in*

I’m a local in SC w/ a Sprinter. Hit me up if you and boys ever need a drop off. That walk blows haha

Glad you're enjoying California. Funny to see you at places I have been. Hit more breaks if you can. A skateboard or a bike would help at Lowers.

great vid

Luckily I have a friend who was in the military and we can drive down straight to cottons and we usually just hit that up since it’s less crowded and still fun.

You can find un crowded dawn patrol spots, but getting up at 6:30 in Venice and you are guaranteed to be at PEAK crowd hours for 56th. Newport’s crowd can stay in Newport, imo.

"I know my way around California" *gets lost and ends up north of Cotton's on his way to lowers*

Should have seen it in the" 1980s" where I became a very productive fighter( usually 2 at a time), it was not fun surfing in Newport Beach!

YEEEWWWW🤙🏽🤙🏽

Koa, dude I did the exact same thing when I went there, I went straight and went to uppers, I asked some young surfers on the beach where’s lowers, they were from costa, I had literally just came from costa to cali and they were from this tiny beach there where i had just surfed, kinda cool, and surfed lowers big w nw onshore, it’s a way more powerful wave than I thought, especially the left. I was super nervous the first time in that pack, I caught something but forget, and had to come in, but went back out and caught a legit left I got the priority in the middle of the pack, that was the hardest part. I didn’t realize the push the left had, I got to drop down some steps in the wave and it was a good wave rode it to the end, I wanna go back when it’s glassy

Nice one.

Brah that board looks so good under your feet

Always used to take the road to Uppers and walk down the beach. The MEAT bike generation (Me Me Me, MEAT MEAT MEAT) so seldomly gets to experience the humble trek down with just the bear essentials and Mom or Dad. There used to be a great long mudbank on top of the beach along the inside point at Uppers with lots of shrubbery. More compact earth made the walk easier. Now there is only sand. Also, a huge driftwood tree trunk (lizard haven) used to be the halfway house to stash your stuff and hydrate before surfing Lowers. The thick, deep sand is what makes going that way so difficult, although it's a shorter distance overall. (9:53) That was Trestles in its heyday (2002-2012). Surf Lowers all day. Get a big bombing left all the way to the beach. Step off on the sand. Then go take a post-session selfie with Uppers rifling off in the background. However, I haven't scored great waves at Uppers since Sept 2016. That day I had my own aromatic, potent homegrown seeded chronic. I even gave some away to a total stranger in the hopes that they might grow some for themselves. It was my favorite batch of homegrown chronic that I ever had. The mudbank may be long since washed away, but the herbal essence and spirit of sharing and gratitude remains, no matter how heartless the kids of this generation may be. Because today, what Lowers has come to be all about is no longer who surfs the best, it's all about WHO'S the best at bullying their way into waves. (Remember, ALL of Trestles proper is San Diego county and has only been open to the public for just over 50 years. Meanwhile, Lowers left itself is only about 40 years old.) 💯

6:29 a stranded kook in the water without his wavestorm out of the cam view!

Next time your in CA and have a good south swell get up to Lompoc. Hopefully you can get a room or camp sight. Jalama is worth the 3 hr trip from Venice if the wind is right. It’s usually good early. (Ps. No one read this except for Koa).
