"Code Red" Full Movie - Surfing Goes Huge At Teahupoo Tahiti

On August 27, 2011, the Billabong Pro Tahiti event on surfing's World Tour was placed on hold due to a massive swell bearing down on the famed big-wave spot, Teahupoo. With forecasts calling for unprecedented surf, some of the greatest surfers in the world descended on the island to be in the water, despite a "Code Red" called by the Tahitian Coast Guard, which sought to keep everyone on shore. See the historic day through the eyes of two surfers -- the young gun Laurie Towner and the veteran Dylan Longbottom -- as they catch some of the biggest, most dangerous surf ever recorded, much of it captured with the super slow motion Phantom Camera for never-before-seen imagery.

I did Teahupoo when I was 23 (last year). It was 7 -8. My scars recently have fully healed. I tried, succeeded 2 or 3 barrels, failed the rest(15 failed attempts). Never again. Well, maybe one more time.

Well if you can do it at all that's cool. I'm sure Laird Hamilton would be proud. What I can't figure out is how so much tonnage of water can be ripped off that shallow reef. It seems to defy gravity. Definetly E=mc2

Possibly the single best surf movie! I'd know... I used to surf all up and down California/ Mexico coast back in the late 80s early 90s. I actually surfed the same few breaks with Potts's dad! Among others from that era. I've watched near 1000 surf movies/ documentaries and this one is 3 songs, simple but the band that you hear is underrated and as you hear, they got it! And long bottom and towner

@liljnnaps1 9 жыл бұрын

heh yeah but you could put cameras onshore and show us more of a wider picture! I appreciate your comment Daniel Robinson. But my motive is that i want to see the location in its entirety as if i would be standing there on the beach or from another vantage point. The place is amazing and it would be great to see those sets rolling in from way out and how the water moves oveer the reef and inside channels etc.

@ConfusedCanadian403 9 жыл бұрын

Kiwifix It's not that they don't really want to show the other angles, it's more just that the swell for this particular storm made it hard to see everything from the beach because the wave breaks so far from shore. The best angles, and really the best way to showcase the wave, are from the channel where you see all this footage. You could the full look at the height, power, and really everything important about the wave. I'm sure if there was really good footage from the beach they would have used it. I just doubt with a swell like this and the footage you could get from the channel there'd be any point in filming from the beach.

@thomasrebotier1741 7 жыл бұрын

Because the shots are taken from the channel. The wave breaks too hard for a surf photog to be underwater. He would get killed, literally, on a cleanup set. I guess also this was 2011 there werent so many drones around. But even today I don't think a drone could hang above the breaking wave, the draft alone must gust over 25 knots

***** You need to get real man. Warning the world of the reality of Hell is not terrorism by threatening torture and pain in order to get my way. Get real. I don't want my way, I want you to be saved from the eternal consequences of your great many sins against God. You should stop throwing around serious words like "terrorist" when you're referring to a worldview like Christianity, especially if you come from a country that has been founded on such a faith. Stop accusing peaceful followers of the Lord & Savior Jesus Christ of "threatening" when I have no power to punish for sins, and if you want to continue in your sins down the wide road of perdition, that's your choice--go right ahead; but, my eyes have been opened by being born-again spiritually and I know that what God tells us in the Holy Bible is True, and, like God, I don't want anyone to perish and go to Hell. Do not equivocate this with a worldview like radical Islam that will try to force you by the sword to believe in Allah or else kill you.
