Can't wait to go sit in the channel and watch chop during a monster swell... I think that will be enough to bring tears into my eyes... It took Laird riding a monster for the same emotions, but for a lot of us, sitting in the channel could do it!

Lol. Dude that's great, my dad's surfed Teahupoo too, but there's no way you've surfed it like this...I'm really happy for you and actually quite jealous that you got to go on such a great trip, all I'm saying is that you might just be acting a bit too macho if you're claiming you'd be jumping the waves in this video on a jet ski...lol.

a normal wave breaks at 2/3rd's of its hight in depth of water a 30 foot wave normaly breaks in about 20 feet of water but teahupoo is an exception and it breaks on about a 8-10ft deep reef. with the water being sucked up it probably goes down to about 6 feet at worst.. this is still very shallow for the tons of water that fall on u at wipe out. teahupoo has already taken a life.

jiglojay

its 2-3 ft deep so if u fall from the lip ur falling 20-30ft into 2-3ft deep water with a coral bottom, then u get dragged along the reef like a cheese grater
jiglojay
jiglojay - 16 years ago
the boats sometimes get smashed by the close-out right that breaks on the other side of the reef, when a huge set comes all the boats go forwards. in the dvd blackwater u see a boat go over the falls on a huge day
