Nic von Rupp and Minute-Long Tubes at Skeleton Bay

Nic von Rupp has proven a master at being at the right place at the right time. Getting to Namibia’s Skeleton Bay, you have to be sure it’s the right time. The journey to that part of the Southern African continent is epic, to say the least. But choose the right swell pattern, and things end up looking like this. Nic captured more incredible footage of the famous left-hand Barrel that seemingly goes on forever. Check out the barrel at the 5:43 mark that goes for nearly a minute as the water folds over Nic in perfect symmetry. This place is amazing.
