It's funny because people have no idea how scary surfing is. This raw just shows how fast and terrifying Teahupo'o is. These guys are nuts!

11:35.... bro's paddling into the impact zone to find you! Now that's crew you want in the water with you.

Thank you immensely. This raw footage is such a better experience than the regular mostly slowmo vids being produced. I felt like I was actually in the boat with you. The POV hold downs, the chaos around boats, the sounds of shock in people’s voices, all made my viewing intense & emotional. Job well done.

27.41 that was the biggest wave and biggest bail of the day............brilliant brilliant brilliant

Finally one surf video without that annoying background music! Awesome! Thanks, this is top!

I love how everyone is on the same wave mentally and sometimes literally. Everyone’s a team out there, I love it!

No music no slo mo. Best video ever

I must have watched this video 15 times, it NEVER gets old.

Every time I watch this every 2-3 months, every second of it gets better. It's like you add things to it, except you don't. One of the best surfing videos out there. Period.

I love the raw footage and live sound! Will probably watch every day for a while.

The long format gives you the experience of being there. EPIC!! ! !

Man...This is some the best footage I ever seen of Teahupoo...Up & close.

No big waves riding videos without Healey this guy is such a beast !

All we want to see here! Turned out incredible. The craziest wave at its best. Some Drama, differenct angles short interviews.... nailed it!!! Excited to see more like this!!! Keep it coming Powerlines! A bibg fat thumbs up !! The biggest I gave in a while!

Epic footage, thank you. It’s great to see what happens before and after the wave. Especially with big waves. That’s the most exciting part!

So sick. I've never seen that strait on perspective of Chops from the"end of the road" at the beginning of the edit. HEAVING!

A superb film - amazing pictures of these immense waves !

Truly one of the BEST videos on KZfaq! In ANY subject!!! but certainly for surfing. This video deserves accolades and awards...as does every single surfer videographer and jetskier who participated on this occasion.

Completely wonderful… Love the raw footage and the sounds, great with no music, Thank you!

Wow....the BEST VIDEO on KZfaq!!! No music, just shredding!

Great video! Thanks guys!🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊

My husband, was almost gone 3 times= World War II , Vietnam , entire unit passed, a sargeant... Fist time seeing him , in a film , Surfing, Flipped! He took me surfing Santa Monica---pushed me , to sur--on his board (little one, I heard him scream !while I was riding 7 mins. In heaven! Together 49 yrs!

awesome footage good to see the whole wave and aftermath no cutaways or edits!

My favorite upload of surfing, thank you

The. Best. Surfing. Footage. Ever. And I’ve been watching surfing videos since I was a teenager going to the Surf Theater in Huntington in the mid 70s. It truly captures the chaos, fear and elation of a big day in the water. Truly remarkable. Please never delete this post

excelent video mate, loving these raw footage...

Great content. I could watch Teahupo’s for hours.

I’m commenting 2 years late. Your very fortunate to have been there and captured this insane natural phenomenon. Thanks for sharing Garrett’s POV and other angles from his tow in wave. It’s comical how the GoPro makes this look “ soft and inviting “. It’s my dream to get to watch a wave like this when it’s firing in person. My reality, it’s probably not gonna happen. Thanks so much for creating these edits! My jaw was on the floor once the monster tow ins started, watching the surfers get pulled up the face faster than they can descend is unbelievable. The fact that people put themselves in these situations, and people like you are there to capture it is awesome. Thanks again, from Charm City Maryland! Liked and subbed

That's was awesome. Best vid I've seen in years

That wave is beautiful! But terrifying at the same time.

Thanks for posting. This gives a great perspective of what is known as an 'epic swell' in Tahiti. I remember when Poto was the only surfer known to come out of Tahiti, and no one had ANY knowledge of this wave. It took the tow in surfers to nail it, then the paddle surfers conquer and claim the wave. I couldn't imagine traveling that far (from the US mainland), catching & MAKING the wave of my life, only to have to dodge a dozen or so boats sitting in the channel to watch the surfers.

I love how you guys all look out for one another. I feel like when there are a lot of you out there it also helps keep the sharks away.

GREAT VIDEO!!! Love the raw sound!!!

Insane. The raw footage is the best!!!!!!!

Thanks for putting in those full tow in shots. Never seen that before

Had to watch again. Absolutely mental!! Like others said. It's like being there. Props to those legends charging that wave. Well done power lines!! Yeeewww 🤙

Seriously, this is one of the sickest things I've ever seen on KZfaq, new top 10, best of 2020 for me. Soundtrack excellent, definitely agree, no stupid music. Just raw, amazing gladiators at one of the gnarliest reefs on the planet. OMFG.

One of the best i have ever watched.. Fantastic ! Those Men are STUDS . Lets see one 52 Million dollar a year pro golfer do that.

Great video... ! Exceptional athletes out there for sure, ski crews and all!

I never get sick of watching footage of Teahupo

Great footage Kurt. Look pretty gnarly out there. Look like a lot of Carnage in the water. Glad no one was killed and everyone made it home safe. Keep up the good work.

Awesome raw video.loved hold down parts.

Amazing. Thanks for video wish I was there.

This channel is FANTASTIC! IMO this is the most effective way of documentary and portrayal of what actually goes down here. Chills down my spine. Much respect

That was some sick shit! Those waves at Teahupo'o amaze me. There is no back to those waves! It's like the whole ocean is behind that wave! Awesome video!

Even though it was a relatively small wave for Laird Hamilton ( 7:03 ) he shows why his name is so famous in the surfing world. His burst of speed from the start puts him more in control to slice across the face of the wave safely.

Best footage I’ve seen of that sea monster we call Teahupo’o

That is absolutely crazy how close to the impact zone those boats are!

This is the best video I ever seen in my life..might be the best video ever made of how to get in . Now I dont want to surf..Awesome

Those sets are relentless... So little interval between waves if you need to go rescue someone. And what about the guy who kicked out the back last minute, only to see Koa's monster wave coming straight at him... You witnessed something very special, thanks for sharing

Super gnarly, I almost couldn't watch.

What a video!! Amazing!! Total respect for all!

Excellent vid 👍👍👍

That guy caught inside at 29:40 is the craziest thing I've ever seen

It gives you a sense of the speed and power when you see how far these guys keep gliding off the back of the wave. Crazy!

Thank you powerlines for documenting and sharing surfing history !!

Absolutely insane footage 👍🔥🍻

I could watch that wave all day... amazing RAW footage!

Brilliant outstanding film of surfing... you guys really understand how to film edit and interview - it's the next best thing to actually being there, thank you!

Raw footage is the best! As close to being there as being there.

felt like I was out there . well done

Two thumbs up if I could. Awesome footage and agree with the comments about the raw footage without putting music over it. Love hearing the savage beast and the comments from the channel. SICK day and major kudos to those paddling!

Sick video. Great job!

Cheers I really enjoyed this!

Amazing quality content! Subscribed for life.

Best surf I ever seen.

How Mother Nature have created this mortal beauty of a wave ... this is so great, no music just the real experience of this spectacle

WOW! What a beautiful place, what a monstrous wave!

man I can't wait to surf this joint. like the comment before great video love the raw footage the sound and watching the ones go unridden and everything. thumbs up

The power of Teahupo'o is to be respected and is nothing to mess with.

It has to be sick dropping in on one of them . 👍👍👍 What a rush.😨😨

Crazy surfing! Respect!!!

6 years later finally. Awesome video. Look carefully at 4:30 as nathan fletcher wipeout another one in black suit got sucked by the wave and goes over the freaking fall. 10:09 DAN RYAN EPIC WIPEOUT*** 27:39 KOA’s epic wave towed by king Laird Hamilton !

thx for that awesome video

That was insane, another level guys!. respect!..

Incredible!! 👍🏻🇦🇺

Like freakin tsunamis...WOW!! Excellent experience... Thank you 🙂👍

"Grandpa said wear a life vest and a helmet, I said okay grandpa" love it, smart man

Different breed of human these surfers are. Mind blowing! Limitless courage and bravery

Couldn’t give you enuf thumbs up and subs . Thanks for the post man feels like where in the lineup .

27:40 UNREALL!!

Grandes tomas, se los agradezco...

Great video!

25:18 seems like a viable method for reaching orbit

That's gotta be the best 30 minute surf video of all time!! That was sick!! Takes big f@3king balls to charge that!!! First time I saw Peter Mel charging. I think he's a great commentator for the WSL events. Good to see him in action :)

24:10 The little Shaka by Pete Mel. Coolest claim in the history of man.

27:40 is the sickest thing I’ve ever seen!

Awesome video mate, as everyone else said, thanks for not putting some shitty music over it. Wipeouts and the aftermath was a good touch.

All the respect...Getting shacked and making this wave/taking it on the head and living to tell the tale are one in the same.

Anyone else finding themselves leaning toward the channel, cannot figure also the guys that drop in at the last moment only to find the bottom squared up thats just freekin mad, those big ones look twice as big as the others, big balls crew you rock........

Awesome content!

10:09 Is pretty much how I would expect myself to end up on my bodyboard. lol This footage is insane!!

Great upload!

O - man!!! The only word for this spot on earth is........... EPIC

The Best video of this wawe ice seen!!!

I was scared watching it behind the screen, very raw and real, bordering on a horror movie, but real

Wow!!! Insane!!!🙌🙌🔥🔥

Great video! Love the raw...watched every second!

The size and power of the waves was seen by your excellent position while filming. This venue has the perfect close catch zone along side the foaming disaster of the Teo reef. Great vid mate. Greetings 🦘🦘🦘🦘

Getting goosebumps after watching the set come through and almost wash out the boats in the channel at 15:30 - 16min.
