Wow that Billy Kemper ride was unbelievable!

[icedbannanas]

Wait....so now they're not just riding these monsters, but doing tricks and playing around on them?! RESPECT. Amazing stuff.

Haven’t surfed in over 45 years but for ten years, it was my life from 13 to 23.

My heroes were guys like Greg Noll, Eddie Aikau, Rick Grigg, Pat Curren, I reckon the pioneers of big wave surfing. But unlike Kai, who’s doing things unimaginable in my day, my first time at Pipeline at 8-12 nearly killed me and since had enough fun and thrills at 6-8.

We thought we needed heavy 10-12 foot skinny guns to get down the face with the wind trying to hold you up. The guns helped tame the chop but Kai is using them like a jump ramp and flipping aerials and playing in the pocket that I was trying to outrace. Of course my biggest was no bigger than 15 and I wonder, with towing, safety vests and skiis ready to assist, would I have tried big waves?

Nah.
I was out at Haleiwa at 15 by accident. Couple of waves and one two wave hold down and I never liked going out over 8 feet. There’s fun and there’s scared out of your mind, fighting for your life.

Huge respect for Kai and the big wave guys. Always gets my heart pounding and my mind and body feeling it... even after 45 years.

Have never been surfing in my life, but i love watching Kai ! Such a great series!

[TooDaft]

Just a couple years ago guys were only being towed into these massive waves, now there's like 20 guys just paddling into it.
Absolutely incredible. Just insane progress in the sport. Love to see it!

[lovebiota]

This was so exquisite.
The soundtrack and sound editing is mind boggling.
The cinematography...illest. Direction: manifique!
Epic! Thank you!

17:23-17:48 May be the best ride I have EVER seen!! Billy, Nate and Kai are my heros!! You guys push the envelope so hard! Mahalo !

Crazy energy vibe everything. I know every (extreme) sports is a little enclave in our shared existence, but these folks are just completely on another level. So in tune with the primal forces and raw surrounds of nature. And having fun with it. Absolutely crazy. Never late to try it out. Greetings from a 34 year old skateboarder from the Netherlands.

The editing with Kai in the barrel slow mo and then kicks back was INSANE.

This is such a good series. Really really well done by the team involved. Kai seems like a cool dude too and he’s great on camera.

[traviss]

hands down some of the best wave riding I've ever seen. that barrel billy Kemper got was something else...

[leeberry]

Loved it, the bit where he feels true, pure, wondrous, soul, tingling, FREEDOM , I knew exactly what he was gonna say, because I could not only see it, I could feel it deep in my tingling soul😎

[bamm]

People are getting so damn good at riding these monster waves. Can't imagine getting anywhere near those things. Kai has some serious competition, too many killer surfers out here

[johnswimcat]
