Towering waves crashed into a crowd at a famous big wave surf event in Hawaii’s Waimea. #shorts

Biggest Paddle Day in quite sometime as Jaws / Peace goes off. Albee Layer, Billy Kemper, Torrey Meister, Tyler Larronde, Kai Paula, Paige Alms, Ian Walsh, Fransisco Porcella, Nathan Florence, Steve Roberson, Othmane Choufani and more take on massive waves.

After the passing of big wave surfer marcio ‘mad dog’ freire (one of the first guys that started paddling Jaws early on ) a lot of the surfers out there were surfing with his spirit in their minds and everyone charged in honor of Marcio.
