Watch: Nate Behl // Covid Caves
Here he goes again, first Mötley Crüe, then Ratt, now Nate Behl has backed his surfing with more eighties thrash in Metallica's 'Master of Puppets'.
But really, it could be Tiny Tim and you'd still be getting the chicken skin and heart palpatations 'cos every wave is either perfect or perfectly ridden.

Some serious heavy waves to be surfing on your relative lonesome
Hard Core
thought i was seeing things by the time I got to the last 2 waves.. wow!
I stretched the four minute clip out to six minutes repeating those last two waves. Incredible...
Well thats what perfection looks like .....big waves small boards .
...and a rather large set of gonads.
The righthander is Apocalypse I'm guessing. That's a pretty nasty section at the end of the wave aye. You wouldn't catch me out there that's for sure.
That's Bankvaults in the Mentawai.
Yeah most of it is Bank vaults, the last two water shot ones i think Riffles, he was staying at Kandui resort in October and scored both, few of these waves were shared on FB.
I didn't realise Bank Vaults had that deadly inside section. Looks dangerous. How'd you fare Indo?
It's not too bad, I've had it up to about 6-8ft and you can usually pretty safely eject prior.
More annoying is when you get caught inside and think you can paddle straight out again, that section just clamps down.
I thought they were all rifles. From memory Bank Vaults shouldn't have an island in the background?
Botik Island
Fair enough.
Those last two! What a mad c*nt!!!
Yeah perfect up to a point, right before they close out on almost dry reef. Gnarly. Both those end sections must of claimed so much human flesh over the years.....
How does he not get FA-logged straightening out on the right’s end section?
Do pros have magic healing feet?
Wow, those last two waves are special. Doing a fair impression of backlit 10-12’ pipe
My thoughts exactly. If that was me I'd end up having skin grafts in hospital for the next 6 months.
Great track and timing! I have been introducing my 3 and 5yr old daughters to heavy metal. They love the head bang and they ask some relevant questions when watching the vids. Why are they so angry? Where are the girl singers?
Those last 2 waves would have won Wave of the Winter for the last 10 years!! If they were on Hawaii. I love his clips, incredible, fearless surfing. His Webster’s go well.
Looks a lot like G Land
If you've surfed Deserts, those waves take on a whole other dimension. Falling at fraction of that size almost always ends up connecting with the reef...I have no freakin idea how they get away with that - especially that end section straighten out on 3 feet of water with a cascading triple over head waterfall behind you. Insane.
Full tilt - that was GREAT..
PS - I know a lot of people know the waves etc. they're in no way secrets, But do we have to name them? better if we don't I reckon... just sayin
Good call. I was just curious I guess but in hindsight I probably shouldn't have gone there.
Cheers
Those last two , if they're DP , hand that man a beer !
Barrel MASTER....MASTER.......so crazy Nate Behl, those giant DP lefts....fark that, all your's you mad charger. Yeeew
Deep.
