I've been making VLOG's & posting on Instagram for over 7 years & it wasn't until 2023 that I've even posted a video that reached over a million views. This experience from my wave at Silverback's has been crazy! As of today it's reached over 8 million views & it's a fun conversation to have. Not only was it one of the biggest waves of my life, but it was also the BIGGEST wave of my life. Thanks for all the stoke & support FOR THE DREAM!! - Ben

I'm not a surfer but I tell you what, after spending more time swimming at the beach I've earned a whole lot more respect for you guys. I got ragdolled by a pretty average wave and was still in pain all next day 😂

And trust me,that for anyone to reach the point where you can surf with confidence takes a lot off pain,a lott of your body and soul,but when you surf your's "dream" wave for the first time with success,all the pain and Misery goes away in a split second. From then its enjoy life and surfing everyday if possible. To me it's the most rewarding fealing there is,to be able to surf as far as you can. Its going for me for the last 43 years and still have a lot off gas in the Tank. Just go for it,you will not regret a single bit,trust me.

The secret sauce in @bengravyy 1. Honesty (You don't edit out all the goofs) 2. Vulnerability (You called your mom first when you broke your collarbone) 3. Inspiration (You've told your story about drinking and your belief in your sobriety) 4. Family (Whether it's Cam, Sasquatch, Jordan, your brothers, or Dennis, they're all real, included, and part of the team) 5. Fun (You have made surfing fun again for so many who burned out on the crowds, hype, competition, and ill will) Oh, and you're as nice in person as the guy who appears in your VLOGs. Love you buddy, #skinndogg

You know what it's like to try and go viral. It's what led you to alcoholism and trashing your body. You're on the right path my friend, stay the course and thanks for all the inspiration. Self-value is never found in likes from other humans

@@tammy6992 I know how it works, seen it a lot in my life. I'm just saying he was doing all of the stunt work, going crazy wrecking himself and drinking his face off when he was trying to go viral. He'll know what I'm saying. Now he does it to spread a positive message and he's on the right path. Given his history all that should be self-explanatory, but it's more about what he was going for in reference to the current video instead of not just going for the likes and doing it for the right reason, like he does now

Ben, I'm not gonna say it wasn't big in Oregon, it was , and cold too , making things seem bigger and thicker, but it really was huge in Hawaii , outer reef , when Jamie and Kalani towed you in on , that was mighty big of those brothers to put that kind of faith in you, and share that experience, but this as a paddle in was hairy

... Congrats' - Ironic how some of the "biggest" waves of our lives aren't really the Largest. Interesting 8-minute 1-on-1 between Mr. and Mrs. (Gravy)... Seems a possible paradigm-shift of posted Content. (Or maybe just a natural-extension ??). A little of both, i'm Guessing. "Reality T.V." is based on Realism, duh, (or not). This seems about as "real" as it gets. Husband and Wife discussing the finer points of their livelihood, Career. Obviously a risk; you stand the chance of alienating a lot of your "regular" Fans - (especially the younger ones ??), Maybe... All Pop-Stars are faced with that "reality" at one point or another. What to do - keep posting the same content over-and-over until you can't pop-up No More ?? - Try to surf every country in the World ?? (I haven't done the math on that one, but it seems very difficult at-best). Or turn the cameras' inward and expose your more intimate sides to the entire World ?? ~ A tough question for sure, and one only people who become true "Stars" are faced with... Of course, your "Career" depends on New Content - (or Recycled Content), a mix of both ?? - Each day brings new waves of decisions and obstacles. I think most of your fans will be on-board for wherever the Captain chooses to sail... Just be prepared for some Backlash; Change brings chances for people both far and near (sometimes the nearest), to be critical, jealous, over-bearing, mean - i'm guessing you've already experienced some, or all of That - Don't let it affect your judgement and decision making - Keep giving away your heart/soul/dollars, and mostly Waves - people will remember that Forever !!
