there is quite not dangerous waves, mainly dangerous people.
know youself , know where you go or look and learn before practicing ,
if you doubt, don't go or protect yourself …. and ?
ENJOY ! 🙂
It’s coming. . .
No. The WEDGE owns that title. Mhofwiw.
1 cubic meter of water weighs 1 metric ton. Fun + accessible + shallow + powerful = body count.
Rebuild Haiku stairs. Reopen Sacred Falls trail.
Nazare- Hold my beer.
Nice to see helmets are more accepted, these days.

WHERE IS JAMIE????
🕷️💙🏄🏿♂️💙🕷️
bro the shot at 1:57 was spectacular. perfect imagery of what it's like to get ripped over the falls
There are dozens of hidden waves out there no one knows about, Secret spots. Manini’s 69’s hapuna point. SS. Hollywood is Hollywood Bradah (;
I know next to nothing about surfing, but Shipsterns Bluff looks much scarier.
The unpredictable high is a seductive death wish in disguise guys. Carefully choose your priorities in life.

Pipeline is the most dangerous place to surf.
Hands down.
Not even close.
I went to the NORTH SHORE in 2000.
The locals told me it was 4 to 6 feet.
4 to 6 feet HELL!!
IT WAS EVERY BIT 15 ft PLUS.
You could see the dead reef sucking up in about 1 foot of water.
I surf.
I've been out at CAPE HATTERAS on HURRICANE swells.
I wouldn't go out at PIPE if someone put a gun to my head.
However while I was there I did surf SUNSET BEACH.
It breaks way out in a channel where the water is deep enough so if you wipe out you won't get ripped to shreads.
Even then I almost drowned.
Got caught in the inside duck diving under 15 foot waves.
You stay under the water for about a minute only to come up for air with ANOTHER 15 footer coming your way.
Honest to GOD.
I kissed the beach when I got to shore.😅
Military guys underestimate the waves. We had to be “drownproofed” before being allowed off post.
It comes down to the body count… I think Pipe has the highest 🏄🏼♂️🎣🤙🏻
Teahupo’o
was about to say this is just clips from life of kais vid
Where was JOB in this, he literally lives a small walk away from pipe, tf Red Bull 😢
Absolute respect for these guys. I wear a helmet even on the small stuff, just to protect and for sun. Teaching my younger one to surf and i make sure she wears one too. You can see more people wearing them which is a good thing – no body cares or says anything.
ocean power💙
Only because it’s so crowded. If Teahupoo had pipe crowds, it’d have pipe beat by a long shot. A big swell at chopes makes 6 foot pipe look like amateur hour. Pipe also can’t hold anywhere near the size chopes does. Not to mention the reef there is very much alive, nearly dry and razor sharp.
No it's not, it's only "dangerous" because it's easily accessible to idiots that don't know how to surf it. That doesn't make the wave more dangerous, that just means idiots are a danger to themselves. There are plenty of other big waves spots that are far more dangerous
Is Pipeline the Most DANGEROUS Wave in the WORLD? Maybe. It does house the largest population of surfing narcissists and ass_oles in the world.
The birthplace of over inflated egos!
Lifeguards and ski drivers ❤❤❤❤❤❤ heroes!
Is Pipeline a place or a type of wave?
Got to be hot and crazy to be fun….😂
what if they just put padding onto the rocks
Sitting here recovering from a torn shoulder labrum surgery, and that was only from a 5 footer in a relatively safe area. This is absolutely insane.
