And to think compared to Nazare these waves are tiny

Konrad a - 5 years ago

These waves maybe aren"t as tall as nazare waves , but i think that, they are faster and also more massive when they collapse or it is my imagining that they are collapsing with more force :D. Also, when nazare waves are collapsing, they are collapsing into middle of the wave, here they are hitting flat water and every surfer is almost ending in the inside of the wave which is more hardcore in my opinion.

Manuel Federici - 5 years ago

0:40 I think it's the biggest wave I ever seen

George Henderson - 5 years ago

if you get caught in that barrel, how long are you holding your breath?

ItzSnowy - 5 years ago

George Henderson around 20 seconds. But the power of the waves make it seem like you are under water for 3 minutes

Has anyone ever ridden the ceiling in the curl upside down, come out on top of it and rode the roof down?

There are some amazing surfing guys in here, especially that guy who made it out through the burst of foam. And yes, I would take the chance at surfing if it included body surfing the leftover foam 50 feet from the beach.

sunshinegirl1967 - 5 years ago

After the first 2 deaths, I couldn't watch anymore. Did any of these surfers make it?

sunshinegirl1967 - 5 years ago

Heck I don't know but if they made it it was a miracle.

You dont really want to fall off your board on a wave like that.

Big wave surfing is so fuxking cool

Disapointed William - 5 years ago

I've lived in French Polynesia for forty-five years, and when I saw Teahupoo the first time in 1976 nobody had ever ridden this wave. I left Tahiti for the island of Huahine and stayed there for 7 years riding Fiti and Fare passes!! Great waves, but I never surfed Teahupoo and never will!! I snorkeled out there when it was calm and all there is at the impact zone is brain coral and holes in the reef, so when I see these kind of wipe-outs, I'm really surprised there has not been more deaths!!

Bmac 814 - 5 years ago

How are all the other people in boats and just chilling in the water not getting destroyed? Are they outrunning the wave and going up over it ? Surely sometimes people don’t make it. That shit is insane.

Bo J. - 5 years ago

They're in the channel. The spot is blessed with a deepwater channel on the left side that is relatively safe for boats and people. Even the biggest waves don't break there. That's why on that one clip you see the guys paddling hard, it looks like they're gonna get caught inside on that monster, but then they make it pretty easily. Most of the time the waves aren't even close to this big, they're actually a really amazing little lefthand barrel.

conspiracies are just great stories - 5 years ago

The new high def drone footage of one of these massive swells in teahupoo gives a fantastic look into how heavy the wave really is. It shows how the front of the wave is just a straight drop compared to the ocean behind it. It's not like a typical wave that rises up and above the ocean. Seeing a wall of water that people ride is makes me nervous as hell lol

upsidedahead - 6 years ago

Ian Walsh ?

Carlos Silva - 6 years ago

Obviously the only boards that made the suck out walls and bottom drop out. Had killer shapers make non sticking rails enabled slip slider in full effect. Everyone got sucked over the falls or. Negative tube vortexed into la la land. I should have shaped only licensed certified keapoontang boards, exclusive to point. Boardbuild.

Pipeline is way bigger

Trailrider 75 - 5 years ago

The power and suck on this wave is crazy, one little mistake and your board flies away like a tooth pic, I don't see that pipeline is on the level of this bone crushing monster

FETH - 6 years ago

Pipeline is like a toy compared to Teahupoo, the same with waimea compared to nazare

upsidedahead - 6 years ago

Peter Page at this size pipeline is washing through at 2nd or 3rd reef. Not crazy barreling like this. The only other wave that can hold this size and shape is cloudbreak in Fiji

JIMJAMSC - 6 years ago

As much as I DESPISE Chuck Norris references, "Did they died?" and "How can they float with such balls of steel type?" comments, in this case they are totally appropriate.

SpaghettiToaster - 6 years ago

JIMJAMSC as opposed to all the other videos you see them on, where they totally aren't and you therefore hate them.

Dabiznis TheCat - 6 years ago

Did that first guy survive? I thought the reef was only 3 feet under the water and is razor sharp rocks.

brett jackman - 6 years ago

WTF....There are 2 dislikes on one of the most amazing vids of Chopes..That first guys wipeout was the most brutal flogging ever

John Basiglone - 5 years ago

+Hal Shwimer is that what they call it these days, "floggings". Back in the days when only real surfers used the term, "gnarley" or "stoked", we called it getting "munched".
Back then, a short board was 5'10" Clyde Beatty Rocket Fish. Our surfing heroes we're Rabbit Bartholemew, Larry Bertleman, Buttons, Ian Cairns, Mr.Lopez, M.R. and of course Sean Thompson. Tommie Curren was just a kid that we were jealous of because he was an up and comer and getting all the press.

And for a So. Cal kid, surfing North Shore was an exotic surf trip for me and surfing Mexico was common and not dangerous from a cartel or federali perspective and most the time, five guys in the line-up was a crowd(except Malibu), even Rincon on a 8' to 10' day had maybe only 30 guys in the line up and many waves were to be had.

Just some perspective from a crusty old, now land locked waterman. My life has taken me down some some serious paths. Had a career as a Marine and military aviator. But in my heart, I'm that long haired 18 year old, cruising the coast with bald tires and in search of some inner peace and solitude in the blue/green liquid cathedral. Burning one enroute made it an enlightening experience. I really do cherrish those surfing memories. It was a magic time that can't be repeated, those were truly the good ol' days.
