About this video:

Out of all the extreme big wave locations Teahupo'o in Tahiti is probably the most feared. With only a 25 year history Teahupo'o creates the fastest, thickest, biggest barrels on the planet.
You need to be good to surf big Teahupo'o and even then your going to pay a price.

Maximum respect for everyone who has the courage to ride this wave when it is monstrous

At the age of around 10, my parents and I switched from the south coast of france to Hossegor (south west) for our summer vacations. There i learn to surf (I'm not very good at it but I enjoy it a lot). Being a place that holds one of the surfworld tour event, there's a lot of surf culture there.
I remember that in a surf bar (the rockfood), there was this giant picture of a wave that I just couldn't comprehend at the time. It was teahuppoo, its still one of the first answer on google image where you see a few surfer on the foreground and then wave in a circular shape wich sucks the water in the background.
To this day I just cannot understand the people who ride these wave, I would be terrified just watching from a boat on a safe zone.
Kudos for the vieo it was awesome

I dont surf and most likely won't ever surf but I've become addicted to these videos...its just unbelievable the power these waves have, and the bravery (or insanity) of the surfers

[policedog]

Keala Kennelly! 5:02 to 5:15 That was a rather brave trajectory she took at the beginning. And I love that she never gave up and was motorvating til the bitter but glorious end

[williamkerr]

That first wave defies description, fantastic content.

[Bearded]

That footage is insane. Great job, production team.

Soooo heavy
Seeing the pros getting absolutely smashed reminds me that the ocean is not something we can ever claim to master
But I still want to aim for improvement
