BIGGEST WAVES SURFED KAI LENNY JAWS!!!

Big Wave Surfer and Hall Of Fame Waterman Kai Lenny rides one of the biggest waves surfed at Jaws on December 31st 2019. The day was filled with massive XXL surf and lots of wet weather. In the beginning of this clip you can see a windsurfer in the frame. While Kai was being towed into this wave the windsurfer ended up in between the jet ski and Kai which gave Kai no choice but to let go of the tow rope early and hope he had enough speed to get into this huge wave. After a few pumps the wind held Kai up at the top of the wave causing him to get in late on a critical vertical drop, this whole ride was scary and extreme. This is one of my all time favorite clips of what could possibly be one of the biggest waves ever surfed at Jaws, this wave was a finalist in the last WSL XXL Big Wave Awards for Biggest Wave.

Biggest, Scariest Teahupoo in Over a Decade

July 13th, 2022 will go down in history at Teahupo’o. Biggest, scariest day in more than a decade, prompting local officials to call a “Code Red” — no nautical activities for 24 hours — for the first time since 2011. And it was a session more than a decade in the making as well — most of the surfers who tackled these beasts were children during the original Code Red swell in 2011. They grew up in the shadow of its legends and this was their chance to make their own. Here’s the entire Surfline Swell Story, documented from all angles and with behind-the-scenes interviews from those who were lucky enough to experience this historic day. Surfers include: Matahi Drollet, Emieo Czermak, Noah Beschen, Lucas Chumbo, Koa Rothman, Tereva David, Justine Dupont and Billy Kemper.

Through the Lens of: Tim McKenna, Anuanua Lucas, Pedro Bala, Tereva David, Lea Hahn, Diego Balestro.

Teahupo’o Stream Highlights from This Season – Waves of the World 2022
Teahupoo is one of the most powerful and deadly waves on the planet for surfing. How do you ride Tahiti’s infamous surf break?
The story of Teahupoo and surfing is not a new one. The town of Teahupoo has seen surfers coming from all regions of the globe since the 1960s.

Back then, wave riders discovered that it was possible to paddle out to a reasonable surf break in only fifteen minutes.

The first surfer to claim the first ride at Teahupoo was Tahitian Thierry Vernaudon in 1985. A few local friends support his story.

The entire island is surrounded by coral atolls, making for exciting surf.
For Mike Stewart and Ben Severson – two experienced bodyboarders visiting Tahiti – this was almost the perfect wedge.

Following in the steps of Vernaudon, they returned to Hawaii from Tahiti and brought with them the word “Teahupoo.”

Teahupoo’s defining moment came in 1998, at the Gotcha Tahiti Pro. Teahupoo was going wild, pumping serious, breathtaking waves.

The South Pacific surf beast, affectionately nicknamed “Chopes,” grabbed everyone’s attention, and before long, the big wave surfing elite were arriving in Tahiti.
If you want to surf Teahupoo as a “once-in-a-lifetime” experience, first of all, don’t risk your life. Pick a head-high day and start getting used to the fast and hollow drop.

Then, after ten waves and suitable confidence, go for a barreling ride to feel the power and speed of Tahiti.

Are you unsure where to sit in the line-up? No worries. Depending on the direction of the swell, there are only three take-off spots in Teahupoo.

The hardest and most challenging spot is the southern surf peak. Expect a deep take-off, with no mistakes accepted.

The southwest is the most popular one. You can also have a backdoor experience on the western elbow of Teahupoo.

The Millennium Wave
The heaviest wave in the world has claimed lives, but it has also crowned unforgettable surf champions and their epic rides.

Laird Hamilton scored the famous “Millennium Wave” here, and Any Irons took the title of “King of Teahupoo” with him to the skies, forever.
The Tahitian pearl can quickly change its appearance if wind and swell decide to head in different ways.

The best and classic swell direction in Teahupoo is south-southwest, while a northern breeze will ensure its glassy look.

Teahupoo is a vibrant and mutant slab breaking over a shallow live reef.

Its wave face is much bigger than its back and, therefore, offers a heavy, liquid, tubular ride that can even be surfed in 45-foot conditions.

Are you ready for it?
