Nate Behl’s 5’5 Webster Served Him Surprisingly Well In Pumping Indo

McNasty is at it again.

Nate Behl wants his respect too.

The man they call McNasty has been on an all time heater. Every edit features a smattering of waves that would make any commoner squeal in delight. Five months ago we posted this, 3 months ago this, and that’s all before mentioning Nate’s downright filthy wave at Growers, which is deservedly placed as the ender to the above.

Nate hits Indo every year to get his fix of ridiculously long barrels, yet this season was different for many reasons. Sneaking in on a visa, Nate was able to score what was a highly fruitful late-season run of swell with some of the lightest crowds Indo’s seen in decades. 

The waves and the Rona weren’t the only things that made this season a delight. Nate had a particularly good batch of Webster surfboards, telling Stab that the majority of this edit was filmed on a 5’5. For the everyman, this would seem obscene, but when you’ve all but mastered getting barreled on normal boards why not switch it up?

Every wave’s a banger so please, check your attention span at the door, you won’t wanna miss this.
