What Ben Gravy Really Thought About Stab Highway

“It all came down to one slice of pizza.”

Jacob ‘Zeke’ Szekely and Ben Gravy have launched a surf show.

Two sober media machines—one from Jersey, one from San Diego—pumping out YouTube content and branded merch with the kind of cadence that would make most ‘freesurfers’ shudder. While much of the surf world posts clips at the same glacial pace they chase swells, these two have built empires on volume. Two, sometimes three videos a week. Vlogs, challenges, giveaways, brand deals, lifestyle edits. The hustle is unapologetically relentless.

And it’s working.

Their latest episode covers everything from the Stab Highway East Coast finale to Stab High Japan to the Surf 100 prelims—complete with commentary on Mateus Herdy’s sublime aerial antics and corresponding brlliance in the DMs.

At the 21:00 mark, the conversation turns to Stab Highway, where Ben Gravy reflects on the heated season finale. His spoiler? “It all came down to one slice of pizza.” 

Give it a taste here.
