I love this kid, young lady
Bethany Hamilton is truly one of gods best creations so inspiring you go girl the world is truly your oyster ๐งโโ๏ธ#Queenofthewaves
Bethany you are soo brave I have seen your movie on Netflix and I was so surprised that you just moved on and dident want to feel bad for yourself and dident want other people to feel and for you and itโs amazing how you just kept surfing and started a family and I love how you inspired people itโs amazing!!!
Heroes get knocked down all the time. What makes someone a hero is that they get up all the time.
If she'd launched a steep bottom turn at 1:01 she'd have been right in the pocket.
Foi surf um the best
Iโm a famous surfer in Georgia and I won 6 times in a row
Full credit to her but at what point in time do you sit back and take stock of your current situation and assess whether the hooha's from everyone around you is greater than losing your life for that
15 seconds of glory and leaving behind your child… ??? and don't think it won't happen … Mark Foo … experienced!! .Dec23 1994 RIP… yes I do understand chasing our dreams
I moved away from the water and got back in the day I moved back to the water and I surf ๐โโ๏ธ ur the one that made me surf in the first place thx Bethany Hamilton
She is my role model
Super Girl!
I would have paddled in with you on that wave so beautiful <3 and if it kills me at least I was smiling on a gnarly wave
Yur amazing, Bethany !!!!
4ft Hawaiian
Just had a 2 wave hold down today after a 20 foot wipeout trying to prove myself on something I obviously wasent ready for I caught one so I thought I could again will never forget the feeling
Charger!!! Why didnโt she wear a top of line flotation vest? Greg should of known better. The second wave was kinda lame and she was surfing the wave like a beachbreak at home surprising. Carving straight down face, stalling out bottom turn and setting up late. It was a scary wave and she should always run for the shoulder in big surf like that. Props to her.

I know that feeling of being wiped out by a huge wave. I used to boogie board when I was 7 years old at Bellows Beach, and I was pinned to the bottom of the ocean. What saved me was that my boogie board strap was attached to my ankle. I kept praying to God that I didnโt drown. Time passed and finally I got a hold of my boogie board, and I was able to get back up to the surface. That was a scary moment. Another one was when my sister and I were swimming in North Shore beach, and we fell in this deep hole in the middle of the ocean. We had to take turns swimming to the surface, because a big wave came and took us with it. Time passed, and finally our dad saw us and he got us out of the water. We were living in Oahu for three years when my dad got stationed in Wheeler Airfield in the Army. Moving from Puerto Rico to Hawaii was a dream for me, even if I almost lost my life twice lol. Nature is beautiful, but at the same time itโs dangerous. That didnโt stop me from swimming and boogie boarding. I wanted to learn how to surf like you, but my parents didnโt let me. I will learn one day lol.
Ya gotta know how to read the wave.. when to pull in and when to abort.. comes with experience… sheโll get it.. hang in there girl..
Beautiful girl, beautiful spirit, balls are bigger than mine.
This comment section is so wonderful and positive. I came here expecting the usual garbage you expect on YouTube when a woman accomplishes something but instead everyone is cheering for Bethany! What a rad person and what a rad group of people here in the comments ๐
PS. Is this Laird Hamilton's daughter?
Respect to you bethany!!!! And you big waves surfer!๐๐๐๐๐๐
Is no one gonna talk about this dudes neck to head ratio ?
I donโt know many guys (or girls) that wouldโve dared to take that line, you have great instincts and truly belong out there in any condition the planet offers up. Keep charging ๐
Heart in mouth just to be out there. NOTHING BUT RESPECT!
She's such a legend. Would love to meet her
Such a humbling sport. For all levels of surfers! Keep charging!!
She's bad ass
