Gold Coast Madness | RAW POV Surf Session
Well, if there ever were a POV session that accurately captures what it's like to surf one of the Gold Coast's famous point breaks, this is it.
It's easy to point the finger at the various characters in this clip and accuse arrogance, ignorance, disrespect and the like, however I really think that this is the chaos that ensues when there are simply too many people in one line up. It's unavoidable and once you relax into it a bit, don't take it personally, you can actually observe it with a smile.
I'm not uploading much this year. Extremely busy with coaching and also some big life transitions which is lovely :)

Did I technically get barrelled at 6:40??
Met your brother out West recently. He’s my sisters mate and their kids are friends. Top guy with a lovely family. Hopefully get a few waves with ye both out West sometime 🤘
u did a cutback😭
3 things that are certain in life. Death. Taxes. And….getting dropped in on by someone with a foamie if you surf at Currumbin. It’s science.
😂
or on a foil, or on a SUP, or on a longboard...
Hahahah my dude. Well said
Foamies 4 lyf
No point yelling out down the line at the alley- they are all deaf in the left ear 🤣
Looks fun Kale, That long ride was enough to send me in for the day
Thanks for sharing! Amazing clarity in that video. So excited to see the new mid length!
thanks Kale. good comments in your video overview, too. awesome spot when conditions are good
🙏🏽
Cool vid man , thanks for sharing! Havn't surfed Currumbin in about 20 years it was nice to see, felt like I was back out there :)
when you are doing turns my upper body literally subconsciously moves with you as if im the one surfing
😍
POV is great there was a couple of waves in there that fully had me engaged and riding it with you 🤙💯👌
Great to hear! Thanks for watching
So sick! Rail game is looking solid 👏
🙏🏽
Legend has it that he never let a wave go by without paddling for it
Currumbin gets crowded sure but Snapper is another level of frustrating.
Kale looks like fisher now thats epic
Haha Mark dropping in on the foamie 😂
That board looks sweet Kale... easy paddle in and still good on the rail. What dims/model?
It’s my signature mid length thruster :) launching sept / Oct 🤙🏽
@@KalesBroccoli woooow look like the perfect oct bday present for me^^
This day was particularly f**ked! I was there too, spent the session out wide so to avoid collisons, good ol' Goldy 🤙🤣
Hectic - the SUPs don’t help haha
Happy for a video! Do you think you'll get back to the normal upload schedule soon? Also I think the bald head gives you Kelly powers.😂
Thank you! No, I’m not sure we’ll ever get back to regular uploads as my coaching work is taking up too much time. Unless I can manifest a helpful business partner who can take over all our media operations!
@@KalesBroccoli No worries bro. Just keep doing what you love. We're all really happy for you, and it seems like your having great success with your coaching, so keep going at it. Maybe one day you'll get a media person, but for now just keep grinding the coaching. Maybe one day I'll get out to do some sessions with you.
Hi Kale, what is your board plz ? Thx for the video, always a pleasure!!!
It’s my signature mid length thruster! It’s coming out in Sept / October :)
@@KalesBroccoli OHHHHHH MYYYYYY 😍 What size ?
Looks amazing Kale! Is this shot with the DJI ? what mouth mount do you use?
Yep! I go over the setup in detail in my How To POV video! Check it out 😉
Great video, Can l ask where was you camera mounted?
I use a mouth mount have done a full video on this recently :)
@453 thats why I preferr to sup point breaks. Paddling back out is easy.
the alley used to be solitude ish back in 2003 , looks like www. has taken over. i used to camp in the carpark. bet thats illegal now too...ffs worlds gone mad
Was so impressive to try to over take the guy who dropped into you with a floatie ✌️
😂😂
Currumbin is more hectic than snapper these days
Not even Steve Irwin could handle all those snakes 😅
Did you use action 4 for recording ?
Correct
That’s Currumbin for ya
👏🏽
Hows the adjustment with the head shave? Still forget to take the hat
Great. It was early morning so don’t really need it.
Good stuff! Hey - what's surfing without someone dropping in on you every know and then? - lol
Haha
Bruh.... yuou gotte anounce the shave off no way backos...Enhance the change for life lets ogh!! cuz
What surfboard do you have...???and can you tell me , size...??? Thank you
My signature thruster - comes out later this year :) it’s the 6’5 version that’s all I can share right now :)
What mouthpiece do you use? Thanks
Have done a full video on this recently check it out 👍🏽
@@KalesBroccoli thanks! I did think that after sending the message, I’ll go find it 🤙
ohh no way your on the gold coast i would be a very happy grom if i met you i live on the gold coast and go snapper all the time
I much prefer south! Generally I only Come up for work or travel from the airport - but we’ll be doing a meet up later this year for sure stay tuned via Instagram buddy!
@@KalesBroccoliand if you got a bit of Free time I can only recommend Galicia in Spain, there are some beautiful places to surf with almost no one out. But🤫
@@seangerst6561attention, somes aggressive locals there!
what board are you riding?
My signature mid length thruster - due out later this year!
@kalesbroccoli what are you surfing here mate?
My signature mid thruster :) be out in about 3-4 months :)
Doesn’t seem as busy as Sydney’s northern beaches. Is it?
This looks way more quieter than usual for Alley
It’s the middle of the day so there is barely anyone out. Usually u can’t even get more than one wave
Man, that looks kind of stressful. I'm ok with drop ins and kook and dickheads, but the one lineup issue that makes me uncomfortable is people cluelessly sitting on the inside. I would just really prefer not to send someone to the hospital while breaking my board.
Magic… I could watch this all day 🤙
Hey, fantastic video! What is the size of your surfboard?
My signature mid length thruster in 6’5 - more coming soon!
In all fairness you had a GoPro with you….so that’s like waving a sign that says “burn me”
How often do yall see Americans in AUS? I Wana come visit😅
Currumbin alley
Lucky you've had Mid Coast training for this sort of scrum.
😂😂
ya snake again 7:27
Nah. Thankfully the GoPro donkeys mostly stay away. It’s probably because the waves always suck.
You got berreled by a SUP 😅
There’s no place for beginners at the Gold Coast 😢
Paddle boarders are cyclists of the ocean
😂 Ever tried to ride one mate? Maybe have a go and see how much harder it is than the easy life.
@@Megahegs not surfing, it’s shit.
only kooks get burned at the alley
Typical sup riders at Currumbin 😂
1st part so sketch
ur a snake 2:50
You’re *
He was probably just waiting to see if the guy will take the wave successfully and when he did he jumped off
@@Ancient88Wisdom would you say 7:22 is the same as that ?
Alley is the worst place to surf
Absolutely ridiculous!!
Always love watching you surf amigo! Great vid. Cheers
👀🏄🏼♂️ thanks Col!!
The GC is becoming apocalyptic.
🚀
Has been for 20 years!
Surf is so cool, lots of little marlin around 😊
I think they were garfish or longtoms - but I’m Not an expert haha
Those are garfish.
Sure guys it is garfish, great bait, but due to head shape it looks like a little marlin hey :-)
