Helping someone catch that perfect spot in the wave and not wipe out. Nice.

I wish I was this kid

I think that man is the dad now? I'm not 100% on the implications of this..
arthurvanhoudt
Thing is it is EXPENSIVE!! Private day costs $90.000 for a day (somewhere else it said $50k-$70k). And that is for 8-12 surfers. So around $5k for a day p/p.

I am so confused by this wave. I know it is a wave made by science, but I BELIEVE it is magic
Kyzyl
This shows so many things that are great about humanity.
EstellaOsoka
Is that Lt. Dan?
Come2Japan
RummageSaleBubbler
Oh, this is a wave induced by the train on a floating bridge.
SteepedGardenMrsChen
So what's with the handoff? Was that intentional?
XennialDad
Yes. He's not doing a kind deed per se, he's a trainer.

I'm sure that costs hundreds of dollars but man I would love to get a lesson like that.
SirButcher
Based on the above, 7-10k! Per person!
Sinasohn
Wow. I'm sure it's worth it but it's way out of my price range.
GreenMnM
That man handled that extremely well. I learned the hard way that when you're taking a wave someone's already on, they get real annoyed and try to hit you and drown you.
ThailandExpress
Not real surfing, no tourists to dodge /s
JPRiddles
You say /s but I don't think you really mean /s
ThailandExpress
That probably is correct, but I didn’t want to shit on the kids effort, standing up is hard when you are just getting started.
bbherMlemPlayer
I'd like to try that! Umm, I am 80, would that be as problem?
trigonman3
Just sign these waivers...
feryooday
First you gotta see if you’re able to get from laying on your belly to standing on 2 feet in one smooth quick motion. if you can do that, then you’re set! my dad surfs daily at 73
TheDeucer
At least his fourth rodeo
nickelrocket
Can we see the drone footage?
lightfoot2
And a new surfer.... is born.
awesalots
Where is this? That wave is so consistent. I assume it’s because of the train?

Yeah, the train is the wave maker at that location

Too expensive for normies to surf tho

Thats uncle tito
JackieDaytonaRealHumanBartender
thought the same, also is his board backwards and upside down??

I'm assuming he's training to become a pro, but what do I know.

@op you can add this to your description

Person in the white hat was never seen again.
ThisGostakIsHereForTheDoshes
They probably work with the trainer and brought the kid into position. They give it a push when the handoff happens, and their job is done.
Emuc64
Trainer just sends in the next minion. /s Yeah, I figured it was an assistant who keeps the customer upright until the hand-off, but wasn't sure.
CheezitBaron
I thought itbwas another kid who just wiped out and was forgotten 😕
goatmFitBeast
As did I..... as did I.
StephenDaniels
Imagine how fast Keanu would have learned to surf if that guy taught him instead of Lori Petty screaming at him for half the movie?
aThingWithTheStufAndTheJunk
What if you're into Lori Petty screaming at you?
StephenDaniels
That's all well and good, I'm no fetish shamer; but positive reinforcement and confidence building are proven to be superior for learning physical skills.
iamamentat
He was a college quarterback and probably used to the screaming.
LullabyJones
“I’m your daddy now, kid.”
Wyrdbunny
Fuck that first guy, lol.
XorKaya
Oh thank god. I was never going to learn with my real dad.
deaththeunholy
The absolute control on a board is incredible
Anarchduke
I didn't even notice it. Went back and watched his board. Damn impressive.
TsubakiTragic
... all with just his knees directing the board to stay right in tune with someone waaaay less than his body weight. She's going to remember this day forever.
Apothecarius
Master mode.
BrdCdn
No kidding. Surfing is deceptively tricky. I wake boarded, snowboarders and wake surfed tons and was pretty competent but sucked ass at surfing when I tried.
AlmightyThor117
Yeah, I mean I’m sure he’s surfed his entire life, but man, there’s no shake, there’s no wobble, no correction of any kinda, the guy rides the board so smoothly it’s mesmerizing
DidItForScience
It's a perfectly unchanging wave too. The benefit of a surf park.
deaththeunholy
He even controls his forward momentum against the changing wake while kneeling on it to stay low enough for the boy. I’d buy this man a drink just for the show
MakesUMad
Not a damn twitch. Dude...
EvilleBob
I'd love to know where that surf park is. The idea of a perfect break every time is just beautiful and the engineering behind them is awesome

gardengnomeii
beautiful and Lemoore are not typically found in the same sentence.
Birdnose
Pretty sure this is the Kelly slater surf park in California, but there may be more than one of these.
sparklepantsthedestroyer
The internet suggests you can go there for only $50-70k for a day. A cheap vacation! /s
sirdouglasbuttersworth
Cheaper than skiing/snowboarding
sparklepantsthedestroyer
Where tf you riding, K2? Olympus Mons?
sirdouglasbuttersworth
I missed the 'k'....thought it was $50-70 a day
sparklepantsthedestroyer
Ah, yeah, that's an important component. I'd spend a week there if it was $70/day a few times a year.
flarflarf
i didnt realize this was a park until way too late, i was thinking "jesus where do they have waves like this its like it was made by a machine!!" and it was actually lol
DidItForScience
Only place I've seen a wave like that is on the west coast of South Africa, fucking amazing break. Only seen it on film though.
redsmerf
I thought that was the south coast of South Africa?
DidItForScience
Yeah you're right. https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=Cape+St.+Francis&ia=web&iaxm=about&iax=images

Endless Summer is a very good movie
DeVermisMysteriis
If it's Kelly Slater's place, it's located in beautiful Lemoore, CA. https://www.kswaveco.com
Goldensands
Oh, america. Oh well
IAmGodot
It is. It says "Surf Ranch" on the jet ski near the end.
Crazyaussiecanadian
It is. And that is Kelly Slater helping the kid.
Ryebread91
In the white hat?
donjohngamer
lol no Kelly is fit still
GiftedGoldfish
I've heard alot of things about Lemoore but beautiful is not one of them
suitebbyjae
Yeah it’s more like Satan’s Cheesy Armpit
RobertBunda
I’ve smelled a lot of things about Lemoore but beautiful is not one of the either.
Itslukus
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...
SmergBlaerghl
Well, if there are beholders there, I'm definitely not going!
L1ttl3J1m
No, there are only eyes of beholders there. They can see you, but that's about all they can do

Don't forget the crazy insane energy use!
unluckyandbored
Yeah, moving this much water requires a shit-ton of power..
DarkSock
ur left nostril requires a shit-ton of power...
SeeJenJen
Surf Ranch has been 100% solar for more than eight years.
unluckyandbored
Good to know.
