Biggest Wave Ever Surfed

One of the biggest and gnarliest recorded swells to detonate the reef of Cloudbreak Fiji, the best big wave surfers in the world were in the middle of the Pacific Ocean to throw themselves over the ledge during this historic session featuring Kelly Slater, Laurie Towner, Kai Lenny, Ramon Navarro, Makua Rothman, Dane Gudauskas and more.

— Season 2: Episode 2 —

After recovering from an MCL injury, a swell popped up for Skeleton Bay, and it was my only chance to go for all of 2019. My friend Rob Brown and I dropped everything we were doing, and booked a last minute flight to Africa, only to be greeted with what would end up being the biggest Skeleton Bay swell in 5yrs.

On one of the craziest days of surfing I’ve ever gotten to be a part of, both Rob and I score waves of our lives, a few times. It was a day I’ll never forget. The GoPro footage does no justice to the size of the waves… I’m stoked to have a couple land angles to reveal the height of some, but still nothing shows the size of some of those waves in the evening.

Day 2 brought the longest barrel of my life at 24sec! Rob Brown gets one just as long too!

Sitting in the middle of this manmade lake in Queensland Australia, sits a giant machine that creates waves designed for surfing.

Using compressed air, it’s pushed upwards, when dropped, it’s shape displaces a perfect ring of water that travels outwards, until hitting several manmade reefs, creating different height surfing waves.

Visitors can choose between 5 different areas and wave types, such as a gentle rolling waves for beginner surfers, all the way up to fast and demanding waves for expert and pro surfers, they even have waves specifically design for bodyborders.

According to Surf lakes, the system allows for up to 200 surfers and learners each hour. It’s the largest surf lagoon on the planet with its 80 megaliters of water volume.

► 5 Waves World Firsts

♦ Simultaneous wave types: 5 types of waves, each of which vary in difficulty, size, length and shape, at the same time

♦ Most breaks in a wavepool: 10 separate waves (4 left and 4 right reef breaks) plus 2 beginner waves

♦ Largest surfing lagoon in the world: Water volume 80 megalitres

♦ Largest wave face height: Up to 2.4m face height. 2.2m achieved at mid-level prototype testing

♦ Highest wave productivity: At full commercial capacity, 5 Waves will be able to produce over 2,400 waves per hour, allowing up to 240 surfers in the lake at the same time, all catching 10 waves per hour

I drove 7 hours to Long Beach New York today to witness some of the biggest heaviest waves I have ever seen in person!! But I didn’t drive all the way there just to watch haha. Gave myself a pep talk and charged it as hard as I could. Some super fun waves, a couple barrels and an overall maxed out stoke!! Can’t believe I paddled out and surfed in 10 foot monster beach break conditions. All time day, all time waves. FOR THE DREAM!!! 10/10/19 #cvlogs

Huge waves pounded the North Shore on Wednesday, putting on quite a show for those who made it out there. And there were a lot of people who just did not want to miss this swell.
