This was, in truth, much more interesting than many videos of people surfing -the kind of videos where it starts w/someone a second or 2 before they stand up, and there is generic loud pounding music, and some people making generic loud pointless commentary. This was beautiful too - the sound and coluors of the water and sky, seeing the surfer being swept back and forth by the power of the waves. Very interesting.

Haven't surfed in months and this just brought me right back. As fun as riding waves is, this is equally a satisfying part of surfing for me. The mental challenge and physically demanding nature of surfing on big days is what brings so much satisfaction to each wave. Putting in work like this and then finally catching a wave is what creates the dopamine rush and adrenaline that come with each successful wave. Thanks for sharing this raw footage, pleasure to watch.

Bigger waves can be such a pain in the arse, and you can end up getting nowhere (especially with huge beachies, where there's no channel out, or the rip isn't easy to manoeuvre. But for any non-surfers watching this demonstrates why most surfers have such a great physique.... it's damn hard work sometimes.

I never paddled out at Uluwatu but to me this was not a timing issue. I wrote this comment on Notepad before I knew who it was, but please tell me if I am wrong here, it's super weird to me that a famous guy can do this. 30 seconds of studying the currents show you that the water is pouring in off the cliffs on the left, sliding right, and then obviously must go out in a rip on the right (of of field of view). He paddles *against* the rightways current all the way left to the cliffs then out *against* the incoming current then back again with the rightways current and after 4 minutes he is a 1 minute paddle farther out than where he started from. After that at 4:24 you can see someone taking the easy ride in the rip I expect he would have been in if he had just paddled facing the horizon and let the current take him. A 2nd person again resting in the rip at 5:06. At 5:18 the rip is clearly demarcated. I don't know if there are rocks to avoid on the right (we never see in the shot) but even if there are I would expect the rip must pick you up before you get into them because of the huge volume of water needing to return to sea hitting those rocks and turning seaward. I'm not writing this to be clever. I'm writing because I'm sincerely confused by his comment saying he got the timing wrong. That first 4 minute paddle to nowhere and back (super impressive physically as it was) would have buggered any timing up anyway. Just super curious.

At his powerful rate of paddle I would have expected him to be able to paddle straight out though, rather than all the way left then against the incoming current. Like, angle diagonal left, so his actual movement is straight out until he is far out enough to allow a drift into the rip. Fascinating place though. Thanks very much for the explain.

There is actually a way to get out even the very biggest days with dry hair. You made the mistake the paddling hard to the left against the current, whereas if you just let the current carry you to the right, toward Padang, there is a good chance that if you time it well it will just sweep you out onto the open shoulder of Outside Corner, sometimes without even having to duck dive.

First time I surfed Uluwatu was BIG. I did not look and wait for the true sets so I was frothing after getting off the plane and paddled out with zero local knowledge here😳 Anyway, I made it out paddling very wide straight to the Outside corner. Then the real sets came.Hollow and powerful. I just made it under the lip of each wave in this mega set and as I duckdived I counted 7 seconds underwater before busting through the back of the wave 🌊 and was almost sucked over the falls backwards on the last wave in this set. I started paddling in and didn't even bother sitting out there. It was big. An Indo on a jet ski rode up from Padang and with some assistance i managed to get to the cave entrance and I actually kissed the wall of the cave once I felt safe. I was truly humbled. Uluwatu......you WON !

Only two times in my life I was unable to paddle out and had to give up. Both when I was a teenager in the 80s and the waves were just like this. Big an constant. Once at Cardiff by the Sea and the other at HB. I was in great shape and had years of daily experience under my belt, but after about 45 minutes both times, had to turn back and go to another spot. Sometimes the ocean defeats you.

Having dived, but not surfed in Indo, I can say that the currents are nuts, can remember an epic drift in the Gili's where on the tidal change we went one way, and then came back up to 5m and went back to where we started

I just went straight forward and let the current sweep me to the right. Then all the way around at a slow pace. Problem when its bigger, you might want a bigger board, but its harder to duck-dive. Get back soon before dark, you could be missing the entry of cave depending on the current. Then you need get out at Padang Padang in the dark. Thumbs up!

I always find on points like this. To paddle diagonal all the way out then up the point. Nath paddles in the current up the point here where the current is running down. I haven't surfed here though so don't know the currents. But it's weird you go twice the distance but paddle half as much
