is made by a company called Joby. Joby also makes this
microphone. This
video is sponsored by Joby. See you, sir, and you are blind
. How does this
work? to hear I first heard from Pete on Instagram. I found his account a couple of years ago and this
is what I was trying to figure out how to surf which is the hardest sport I've ever had to learn. do it Pete hey I hear you Casey I'm glad you made it nice to finally meet you yeah come on how did you lose your vision? I was born with a degenerative vision disorder that ate away at my central vision and then it worked until it basically took everything away from me, can you see anything?![how this blind surfer got 1millions subscribers in a month]()
I see light and dark. Peter is a fascinating guy. What he does for a living is a voiceover artist, which is why he likes to record voiceovers for TV commercials and movies. We were with all your movie trail er experience if you were to make a movie trailer for my youtube channel what would it sound like come on come on say are we going to cast you as a youtube hero or bring you the sensitive stories that the people need to see or is it like the action as Casey takes Pete Gustin to surf
this
weekend on YouTube you can turn it on that's awesome what I didn't know is he does all the recording and then editing he does all this
by itself despite the fact that you have Pro Tools open here on your uh on your computer, yeah do you actually edit in Pro Tools yourself?![how this blind surfer got 1millions subscribers in a month]()
Play medicine? So if I want to get rid of the words Ho Chunk gaming Madison, I have scrolled to the beginning. I'm going to look the other way, so now I scrolled through it and then cut it. I took out Ho Chiang player Madison so in addition to being a pretty decent
surfer
and world class voice over recording artist Pete also has a channel a YouTube channel this
is Pete's YouTube channel with 1.41m million subscribers
the videos on his youtube channel he writes, edits and shoots mostly himself tell me about his video the youtube video that went crazy viral i spent all this
time making blind
surfer
stories just telling people these inspiring stories of me overcoming this
or that challenge and one day I think I think my fiance went out to dinner with the girls and I was like I don't know kind of a funny story I'll tell people and I just remembered this
time I was at the gym and before I knew what's going on with this
woman in my face I can tell she's so far behind me because I didn't come here to be looked at and I'm like I have no idea what she's going. going on, but I quickly put two, two, two together.![how this blind surfer got 1millions subscribers in a month]()
I'm like oh she must have been in front of me and she probably thought it was like looking at her and seeing her in the gym. I'm like I'm
blind
I'm not looking at anything and the guy takes the card for a second puts it back in my hand and says yes but you can't make other gym members uncomfortable looking at them oh my god I counted like a 60 second story and at this
point the story you just told me has 40 million 40 million views super interesting guy and I've wanted to do this
movie about Pete for a while but now I'm back in New York City York, so he needed an excuse, a reason to come back.![how this blind surfer got 1millions subscribers in a month]()
California to go surfing. I mean doing
this
movie with Pete and you know every one of my Vlogs I've done. This
flexible tripod is made by a company called Joby and finally after years of using this
I got Joby to sponsor me and in addition to Joby making the GorillaPod that I used now they do this
now they make this
kind of microphone perfect for bloggers for YouTubers and considering that as Pete he's an expert on all things audio, it seemed like a very natural lineup, thanks. foreign at all so this
is with the Joby this
is i mean acquire the car far and up close it actually sounds very similar ok now i'll unplug it and you'll only hear the on board you're unplugged and it's terrible give me the review of two seconds, there were a million times different from you Wouldn't I if I were you?![how this blind surfer got 1millions subscribers in a month]()
I would be ashamed to put on YouTube what you had without the microphone. The microphone made it professional. Good job. well pete one thing i really like about filming with you is when i turn on the camera you dont feel so insecure weird i can just its pretty easy for me to pretend theresnt a camera on me yeah pete because you never have. he's seen me surf i think it's important that you understand how good i am ok i wouldn't say i'm the best
surfer
in the world top three yes top three ok i'm a terrible surfer
terrible surfer
in essence surfing is about the feeling i mean it would be a a million times easier if I could look ahead and anticipate that's the hardest part is I don't know what the wave is going to do I'm just reacting but if all my reactions are fast enough and I feel good then I wrote a good wave, is it really Casey? it's really good out there that's good you know how to dodge that yeah how do you know when the duck dies you listen well and when you hear the way to get mad mad mad then that's when you dodge pete what are you? what is the stick for? this
is it so i want to know when the waves are coming so i hold this
in front of me and when i feel one i turn around and drop down are you kidding right now? 100 kidding so when you surf with Pete like how do you let him know which waves to catch back and forth?![how this blind surfer got 1millions subscribers in a month]()

Slow down the speed. alright you're going to show up and go right on three two one and then i hope you liked it not hitting anybody to the bottom just cross my fingers and say it's coming pete thanks for being so generous with your story and going to browse with me and also thanks for helping me with
this
Joby mic review. I have not made a technician. review in a while and generally when it comes to audio for me I just want something that works like I want to plug it in and know it's going to work and I think Joby nailed that they put like an LED on the front so you know it's recording, it has some nice features made just for vloggers who wrote here in the box for professional vloggers.I appreciate that and I'm doing a bigger project with Joby where they take five YouTubers, five creators and here to New York City and together, we like to do a video where we're testing their audio and just making a video in general, if that's interesting to you there's a link below to check out, okay thanks again Pete thanks Joby and it's good to be back. be back youtube thank you
