Opening Day at JAWS! Almost made my Longest and Best Big Barrel 10/18/23

After a long summer... Pe'ahi aka Jaws finally woke up. It wasn't easy, the strong winds and long interval swell made it very difficult to paddle-in into the waves. But there is always the diamonds in the rough and I almost got the best barrel Ive had out there.

It astonishes me how far surfing has evolved since I began in 1964. Insane talent paired with cantaloupe sized balls. This is some great film footage. Holy crap !! Huge respect to all da boys.

So much beautiful imagery!!! Kai looks totally comfortable in stressful environments. Years of being there, and knowing he's got the right gear and team behind him. Well Done!!!

Hands down best wave rider on the planet! In the ocean and on land, what an awesome human! Joy smiles and trust is his frequency and it’s totally infectious. It’s like the brother, father, son or friend you wish in your life to have because you know you can trust him when your life is in his hands.

The positioning for taking off in the right spot on all the sets...putting yourself a little bit inside of everyone while waiting for the set to jack. Pretty fearless

That barrel you committed to at 5:17 is without a doubt the heaviest piece of surfing I've ever laid eyes on. I could've drivin a mac truck through that barrel. I've been searching for my lower jaw ever since. It's gotta be on my living room floor. I'm 56 and have been waveriding since I was 18 living in Aptos, cal. Kai you're a legend amoung beasts. Ya that rainbow ends at Jaws.

Another great visual of Waves and riders. MESSED UP with PERSONAL MUSIC CHOICES not EVERYONE likes!!! Especially the volume between REAL natual sounds and the ( your music). Also all the preliminary ultra anoying Yap and GEEZER PATROL guys. Somebody in Hollywood needs to give all these video Surf punks Lessons in SOUND productions.
