11:35.... bro's paddling into the impact zone to find you! Now that's crew you want in the water with you.
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!
Try surfing at Nazare , then youll see scary , and im not saying this isnt amazing and this guys are amazing , but Nazare is fucking SCARY
@@raiospartaonick Well, I haven't been to Teahupoo yet but at least Nazare just beats you up really good instead of slicing you into pieces. Totally agree that the place itself is scary af, especially when it's foggy though.
@@raiospartaonick Nazare may be big, but teahupo'o is heavy. they are different monsters. Narare is like Everest where as Teahupo'o is like the Mariana trench. the barrel is deep, dark and heavy. ontop of that, you have a live reef and let me tell you, i have been there, it is not deep.
@@Fookiller1 Please share more, do you get pushed into the reef here?
@@raiospartaonick
teahupo is more dangerous than nazare. Teahupo is a faster and thicker wave that turns itself inside out and then slams you into a sharp reef. Nazare just has height which is still dangerous but the fatality rates don’t lie, teahupo is the most dangerous wave
My husband, was almost gone 3 times= World War II , Vietnam , entire unit passed,

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.
Thank you 😊
Agree. This video was remarkable
@@PowerlinesProductions No ,thank you for sharing the dream !
Yes!! Agree!
@@dhowe1001 TREMENDOUS
27.41 that was the biggest wave and biggest bail of the day............brilliant brilliant brilliant
The long format gives you the experience of being there. EPIC!! ! !
Looking forward to going back! Thanks for input ✌️
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 must have watched this video 15 times, it NEVER gets old.
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!
More coming, thank you for the input 🙏
No music no slo mo. Best video ever
Man...This is some the best footage I ever seen of Teahupoo...Up & close.
Thank you 🙏
No big waves riding videos without Healey this guy is such a beast !
Yeah he's a rare specimen 💪
I love how everyone is on the same wave mentally and sometimes literally. Everyone’s a team out there, I love it!
I totally agree!. I think the main reason is the seriousness of waves like these Really bring people together. I'm sure most people out there have gone to new spots and the locals were dix but if you shred then maybe you'll get some warranted respect. It was same with skateboarding in my day and the best times were when everyone is just stoked on everyone else ripping it and sharing the whole experience!.
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!
awesome footage good to see the whole wave and aftermath no cutaways or edits!
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
Stoked, thank you 🙏🏽
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
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!
That is why its dangerous. Its a thicc wave. And there's a reef right there in the bottom.
That wave is beautiful! But terrifying at the same time.
I love the raw footage and live sound! Will probably watch every day for a while.
A superb film - amazing pictures of these immense waves !
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!
Really appreciate the feedback. Aloha - POWERLINES
That guy caught inside at 29:40 is the craziest thing I've ever seen
damn I had to watch that couple of times cause it's so quick, but he basically tries to dive under but kinda dives face first into that huge brick wall of a lip, I can't imagine the beating he recieved, he's lucky to be alive..
In my opinion his only hope was attempt a duck dive or ditch and dive. Don't get me wrong it's to shallow to complete a deep duck dive but even with enough depth there's no duck diving this size regardless.
Could Slo Mo the clip but there's a lot of people who don't care for much slow mo.
@@PowerlinesProductions I slow mo'd it on youtube in the settings at 0.25 speed it's so even more hardcore to watch when you realise it was him on the wave before being towed in, he left his drop way too late, fell out of the lip wiping out with board still strapped to his feet, then bobs up to see that 'thing' in front of him to deal with...fmd talk about pay your dues...jesus fkin christ lol.
Dude learn how to timestamp properly wtf
excelent video mate, loving these raw footage...
felt like I was out there . well done
Thank you 🙏
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.
Completely wonderful… Love the raw footage and the sounds, great with no music, Thank you!
Great content. I could watch Teahupo’s for hours.
My favorite upload of surfing, thank you
Thank you 🙏
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.
That is absolutely crazy how close to the impact zone those boats are!
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
That's was awesome. Best vid I've seen in years
25:18 seems like a viable method for reaching orbit
Wow....the BEST VIDEO on CZcams!!! No music, just shredding!
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 !
Didn't have a good place to put it up, CZcams was the answer. We did a movie immediately following this session titled "Forecast: Barrels"
Killer video dude. You can't get any closer as a photographer. @27:40+ is sick!!! I watched the whole video twice, Better than Mav.
Awesome!
Crazy. That wave doesn't look real.
Not better than Mavs just different Mavs is actually more dangerous white sharks , cold water , jagged rocks from the land of the lost oh and huge heavy ass waves so it's a matter of opinion but I wouldn't say better
@@elnino4306 come on man, Mavs is "dangerous" because lots of granpa are surfing everyday there, and sometimes some of them die there.
Put Tehupoo in California and you will see hundreds of dead every year.
No one is out there in Tehupoo if they are not crazy and skill as fuck.
fishmemmo
Mavericks are more dangerous in my opinion just by a little. The water is colder, great white hunters, and all the rocks there.
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.
Thanks for putting in those full tow in shots. Never seen that before
Amazing. Thanks for video wish I was there.
Awesome raw video.loved hold down parts.
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
Awesome video mate, as everyone else said, thanks for not putting some shitty music over it.
Wipeouts and the aftermath was a good touch.
Thank you 🙏
Truly one of the BEST videos on CZcams! 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.
Insane. The raw footage is the best!!!!!!!
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 🤙
Great video! Thanks guys!🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
Absolutely insane footage 👍🔥🍻
Many thanks 🙏
Excellent video. Thank you for showing the guys after they wiped out and how they got out or picked up. That's almost always lacking in other vids and non surfers like myself really want to know what happens.
Thank you 🙏
And us surfers like myself want it too 😊
Great video... ! Exceptional athletes out there for sure, ski crews and all!
GREAT VIDEO!!! Love the raw sound!!!
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.
Seriously, this is one of the sickest things I've ever seen on CZcams, 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.
I never get sick of watching footage of Teahupo
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!
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
24:10 The little Shaka by Pete Mel. Coolest claim in the history of man.
Super gnarly, I almost couldn't watch.
Couldn’t give you enuf thumbs up and subs . Thanks for the post man feels like where in the lineup .
Thank you 🙏
Different breed of human these surfers are. Mind blowing! Limitless courage and bravery
Thank you powerlines for documenting and sharing surfing history !!
You know it! Thanks for tuning in 👍
Powerlines Productions Subscribed !!!!!!
@@jucimarsena4054 Psyched! Thank you 🙏
Powerlines Productions I also love all your videos from mavericks . Especially the old ones showing the 90's Santa Cruz crew .
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!
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 :)
Thank you 🙏
10:09 Is pretty much how I would expect myself to end up on my bodyboard. lol This footage is insane!!
Damnnn the feels on that one. The 'fuckk' before the fall
What a video!! Amazing!! Total respect for all!
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.
Raw footage is the best! As close to being there as being there.
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........
Best footage I’ve seen of that sea monster we call Teahupo’o
It has to be sick dropping in on one of them . 👍👍👍 What a rush.😨😨
Incredible!! 👍🏻🇦🇺
Thank you 🙏
thx for that awesome video
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!
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
Best surf I ever seen.
Cheers I really enjoyed this!
How Mother Nature have created this mortal beauty of a wave ... this is so great, no music just the real experience of this spectacle
Excellent vid 👍👍👍
WOW! What a beautiful place, what a monstrous wave!
Right on...
Amazing quality content! Subscribed for life.
Awesome, Thanks! More on the way 🤙
Crazy surfing!
Respect!!!
Most fearsome waves in the world, period.
shipsterns?
Shipsterns is gnarles but Teahupoo is the king of monsters imo
@@c.t.6314 Chopes in its day is legit insanity. The Right also looks horrifying.
But what would you think be more scary to surf?
@@c.t.6314 On its day? Probably Chopes. Not sure if The Right has a similar reef below
I was scared watching it behind the screen, very raw and real, bordering on a horror movie, but real
guysoceanharmonics the reality of it makes it even more scary than any horror movie.
Sick video. Great job!
Thank you 🙏
I could watch that wave all day... amazing RAW footage!
The power of Teahupo'o is to be respected and is nothing to mess with.
Getting goosebumps after watching the set come through and almost wash out the boats in the channel at 15:30 - 16min.
Tice films carnage
Great video!
Koa's wave was siiiiiiiiiiiiick
Like freakin tsunamis...WOW!!
Excellent experience...
Thank you 🙂👍
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 🦘🦘🦘🦘
Was scary at moments to video this sesh, let alone surf if you were one of the few out there!
O - man!!! The only word for this spot on earth is........... EPIC
Absolutely Unique Spot on the planet!
What a time to be ALIVE!!!!!
Great upload!
Thank you \w/
Grandes tomas, se los agradezco...
Wow!!! Insane!!!🙌🙌🔥🔥
The Best video of this wawe ice seen!!!
This video is not a cure for anxiety thats for damn sure.
Balls of steel with nothing but ice water going through their veins. I'm crazy. These dudes are off the chart insane.
Yeah ! Natural sounds and excitement ! , even for the armchair surfer ! Name derives from long linear breaker structure ? So much fun and bravery ! Awz , peace
