I am sooo blessed to live a couple of Km's up the coast from J'Bay. I feel like I'm on holiday all the time. You captured our GLORIOUS sunsets perfectly. So glad you had an awesome time here.
I love my town Jeffreys Bay, South Africa 🇿🇦
Koa talking about having a braai makes me happy 😂

Daydreaming at work as we speak. Nothing makes the day go by quicker than watching a half hour of Jbay while at work.
Best waves ever, jbay is super
Great video! Awesome that you get to hang with Captain (Sam) Potter also. 🤙
KOA.... Awesome seeing You Guy's Enjoying AFRICAN Waves So Much... Beautiful Scenery captured... Just Love Your ENERGETIC LOOK even when You're Freezing.... Look forward to You GUY'S returning to SA... 🌟❤🤙❤🌟❤🤙❤🌟
Man, thanks for showing us J-bay and, mamma Africa, sooooo cool.
J bay is so good⚡
Mind-blowing! Poetry in motion!
NINA´S Place... BEST PLACE EVER. Great vidz
Amazing video Amazing trip and Amazing waves. I would like to know your opinion: when you focus on the line-up at 5:57 11:15 or 12:30 the Place does not seem too crowded giving the condition (especially if you compare to places like uluwatu or ericeira). Would It be manageable for an intermediate surfer? Thank you so much!
Omg! Love it! Definitely going here someday. Enjoy your time in South-Africa!!! 🤙
So epic that you're showcasing the surf in South Africa! Thx for the great content! And greetings from an ex SA surfer now living in Johannesburg!
I'm in j bay rn and they make it look so much better then it actually is but i love it
SOOOO FRICKING AWESOME!!! I LOVE KOA SMITH

I have nothing but respect for anyone who surfs in South Africa. I would be too busy checking the water for sharks than looking out for the next wave...
Goosebumps with this edit and the music man. Perfection! 👌🏻😁
