Mason Ho Surfing Very CRAZY Waimea River

- This week, the Hawaiian Islands were battered with days of 40mph storm winds, massive waves, torrential rain and even hail. With the weather finally clearing, Mason Ho grabs his trusty '96 Fish from ...Lost Surfboards and runs down to Waimea Bay to catch the river overloaded and ready to blow.
Always Listen to the lifeguards and Merry Christmas everyone!

We need more Mason Ho in surfing. Way more entertaining than pretty much any video surfline puts out.
Jamie and Mason are nuts for riding that!
Gnarly doodes
It’s crazy that the ocean builds up that sand again in almost no time.
Is it?
@@mr.smithgnrsmith7808 It is to me!
I was there in 2014, and we saw the river come to life as guys dug it out. We didn’t see it get quite this big, but it was just so cool to watch the standing waves form and guys go in.
So insane!! Glad y'all are okay and you even came home with those beautiful boards!
Got sucked out at night...paddle in was one of the most scary situations of my life.
Dude gnarly
I get sucked too sometimes
I'm *always* down with getting sucked
@@apache5841 And you should get a paddle in for that one.
A big wave surfing friend almost drown here.. We lost sight of him. He ended up way down the beach throwing up. He said he just couldn`t get to the surface. And it wasn`t as big as this!
Almost in my backyard! 🤙🏼👀😆
Absolutely terrifying, I would never think of going in that. Boys got some stones that’s for sure.
I'm old lol. But...I did have an early morning slop session with you in 2004 before ECSC in VA Beach. Good to see the legacy continue. Mahalo
I love the lifeguard on speaker “if you fall in you’re going out to sea” 😂😂😂 and when the dude belly flopped and they all in unison went “ohhhhh” 😂
The Ambassador of Fun Mason Ho Ripping the Waimea River Love it. Merry Christmas 🎄🎄🎄 and Happy Holidays to all the Ho Ohana 🌊🌊🌊🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
JOB was ripping
HO just stood up
Insane! You have the coolest boards on the planet!
Brown water advisory... stoked you didn't die!😝🤙🏽💪🏽
Mahalo! Some of the best and biggest river break riding yet.
Stout, kudos for hopping in this sans PFD. that is some gnarly WW
*So rad 🔥*
Best damn river surfing in the Ho world 🤙🏼🌺
Haha...insane...I saw it when ya'll started digging it...Nope...I kept driving east...so much water in that thing! plus 12ft shorebreak. Viewers have no idea how crazy that was.
You are right. I have no idea whether this is dangerous or not. Can't really tell. But the fact that at the end where the wave is biggest and steepest people weren't going for it suggests that this is actually sketchy? Is it easy to drown there? Break your neck?
even riding a 2ft standing wave can be scary
@@martinbiehl4596 its way scarier, you literally get stuck underwater in a washing machine
@@martinbiehl4596 double black diamond shit with a shorebreak that size. You'll get rocked and then sucked out into a rip
@@boogieheads I know that water is dirty, but that's scary if people are throwing old appliances in there.
Watching Danny Duncan surf that was very cool.
The river was a giant firehose nozzle for a while there! awesome thank you
Wow STUNT SURFER doing it again loved that clip stay safe mason yo thx
Great video…. Mother Nature never gets it wrong…..🙂🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
2 FOOT HAWAIIAN,SLIGHT RIP & MINOR UNDERTOW!
Nice artwork on those boards
You guys are INSANE! Stay safe and have fun!
This is first river wave I've seen with an actual lip.
It almost barreled
look up african river wave zambese i think ?
Absolutely mental! Still one of my most favourite places in the world. Spent 2 weeks on the beautiful north shore in 2013. Great vid guys.
Time to go again ❤
@@saipan4209 it's such a great place. We stayed at turtle Bay resort.
@@saipan4209 where is it located
At first I was like "What's the big deal?" That was gnarly af.
That escalated quickly lol.
the Gnarliest i ever seen it !!! jaimie on jerrys board toward the end was over head !!! awesome fun i like try think id need fins after getting sucked out to sea Aloha DSC777
These guys are the guys who made the river at Waimea in which we see today, let’s be thankful they did this
My first experience surfing was on the little break created by the sand bar created by the river running out. Also, the first time I caught a fish was in that river there (I let it go because pilau water) I went to Waimea Bay sooooo many times as a kid!
For me it was Eastern Lake ((inlet) Seagrove FL) when it was unblocked to the gulf and when the tides changed!!
What kind of fish are in that river?
Hope someone got some footage of that sandbar 😂
ITS LIKE VERTICAL.. ts like awesome.. ITS LIKE LIKE
Wowww, sooo cool. You guys!!! 🎉😯🤩
So much moving water!!!
I love it when they do that
Intelligent and ecological !!!! 👏
Bueno hombre, deja que los chicos se diviertan; a quien cuernos le importa la sequía, el daño medioambiental y que la 1/4 parte de las personas lo tenga jodido para encontrar agua ? (se notó lo suficiente el sarcasmo, verdad ?)
Yeah dude that was mental, I saw that river and was like that's no joke, super gnarly. listen to da wisdom brotha
Is it dangerous to get between that river and the ocean?
Surfer of the year
Looks like so much fun, Mele kalikimaka from San Diego!
so gnarly!
Awesome 🤙
These videos are always so entertaining
That's the gnarliest rip I've ever seen.......
6:10 Nice paint job on that Surfboard.
Broooo wot🤯🤯 this is unreal
gnar! crazy spot
All the freshwater fish are like, "Ahhhh, it burns this water burns. Is this fish hell?"
The overflow eventually happens. It’s part of the rainy season, probably one more strong rain would have triggered what they did. I live in at a beach in Nicaragua where this happens every year in all rivers.
@@pregooooooooskio add to that, if the river is not emptied before it gets this full many homes up waimea valley get flooded. This past rainfall caused flooding because they didn’t breach it in time
@Alberto D. Prego Estrada Good to know. I was wondering if this was bad or good for the river.
I would never let my kid anywhere near that, to watch as a bystander.
That sand can just wash away in no time.
mental. Always wondering how the beach recovers afterwards.
Swell and current brings all the sand back and river runoff is actually very healthy for marine ecosystems to flourish
It's a natural process. Rivers do this routinely.
Do you guys make it happen or does it just happen. I find it so cool. We don't have that in Scotland lol
@@fraser15432 Both. In the video it was dug out, but if people don't breach the berm the river will do it eventually when it's raining.
Is a ambiental crime.
This looks like fun.
That section at 5:48 is gnarly.
Weird question! But does that go back to how it was and if so how??? Cool video though
Does that section of the beach ever get filled back in, or is that permanent??
Pretty Wild & it happened soooo quick
Yeah pretty sure tides currents and waves fill in all the sand again. This happens naturally they just sped it up a little haha
I was there 3 days after this storm and while there was a low area, the sand was back and the river was blocked again. Pretty quick
double overhead waimea river, hows that for a surf forecast.
awesome
How long was river blocked for?
Is it better to let the water go on a high tide or a low tide? That looked pretty knarly and fun👌
Mason doing foreplay on the bump😆
Biggest one yet!!!
Actual deathtrap
Yeah, full send..
That was wild
thats looks so funny!
Sick!
Pretty cool
Does this happen every day with the 🌊 tide
That was crazy
I'd love to see drone footage from above as it goes from a trickle into a torrent.
Wow, at the end, there was some serious water coming out of The river shooting into the ocean. Pretty scary.😮
Does the river heal from this?
Massive!
I shattered my collarbone on my honeymoon on that beach one winter. It’s called “breakneck beach” for a reason. Most beautiful place in the summer with no waves when I went back. Got to swim with dolphins.
Epic 🔥
Eddies on Sunday.. No fear surfing
you should use rope between to have something to catch to... in this fast water. river surfwaking :)
1996 "fish" as in made in nineteenhundred and ninety six?
Legend
GNARLY!
It looks almost as hectic as a big day at Pipe.
Curious, is this a man made thing, and is it just a ton of beach erosion?
Stick to dry reef surfing, it's much safer.
😂
Why even surf reef...surf at a wave pool even safer..
Don't look too dangerous mate 💯
Shhhh
@@gen.arnavpoe4633 why even surf? Just stand it's safer
Wow.
It seems that even Mason was out of his depth this time.
Where does all the sand come from? Is it being pushed in from the ocean or being pushed out by the river? Awesome video! And love the artwork on your board!
pushed/pulled out by the river when they break the natural dam formed by the sand, but the ocean does dump all the sand off eventually.
I got an ear infection out that way and the doc gave me a handful of blue antibiotic pills, he handed them out like candy, probably gave me 30, and said on chocolate days to take a gram after surf, once, to knock out whatever, lepto, dunno, other bacterias. seemed sketchy but I did take them once or twice I think. mason got the natural immunity
Sick
That thing did get serious hahaha
Eccolo!! YEWWW
1:20 bruh I thought that was a mermaid 😂😂
is it legal?
Gnarliest Waimea River
Would love to see a Drone view of were the lake water meets the ocean water.

@@marcelodeandradehernandes5499 Wow dude that was sick as hell. Thanks for the share man.. 🤙
Gnarly
For a second I was like who’s that old guy with grey hair that’s going to send it. I did a double take because I saw no soft top log!
Hello pro🎉🎉❤
