he will always be the best rode the lip felt the wave he owned it and dropped down to finish got me started 25 years age on the obx and i was 40, rode the 20 footer after stroms great fun on first st kdh
..To be streaking down the line full speed like that and know exactly when it was going to hit the inside reef is nothing short of amazing. That wave is a lot bigger than it looks too...much respect .... got the FIRE Mike.
mike ur the man. if anyone could do this as some of you said - why is he the only one out there(I see no crowd)!!! bodyboarding is about having fun knowing ur limits and pushing them when u are ready. mentality is the key.
I was born in Kailua and I haved surfed the globe.I live on the North Shore and have had the pleasure to watch Mike grow up and I have followed his career from kona to tow-ins at Teahupoo. He is a great waterman. Back in the early 80's he and Rock Kahele took body boarding and body surfing to the next level. Big Rod Kahele would pull into 12 foot barrels with a Mcdonalds tray and a pair of thrashed fins while Mike would be perfecting rollos and suicide drops in the heaviest surf the North Shore.
I was standing next to this guy when this video was taken. Almost went out but was too scary that day! Ehukai was walled bombers up to off the wall - the tide was waay out. It was on the Honolulu news channel that night, he went back out and saved some Brazilian surfers who were out there and got caught during a long lull and the sun went down out there...
you can hear danny black in the background having no clue how to work his camera and just blasting shots of everything! hey danny black youre a fucking kook who gives your shit away for free because you know thats all its worth.
actually youre right he has done a lot more for the surf industry than a lot of people have. like giving photos away for free! great job danny you deserve a big pat on the back! Hearing what actual proffessionals say about him makes me laugh
haha rock on randyp what a retard, and why are his photos always out of focus at the edges, he probably hooked up an set of binoculars to his camera phone!
the photographer is sitting at pipeline on a huge day. should everyone around him be quiet? the guys was prolly talking to the guy shooting the movie anyways, not the guy shooting the sequence.
Some idiot posted that anyone could do that. I grew up with Mike in Kona and trust me he revolutionalized bodyboarding.He would catch side wash at Magic Sands and do things with that wave that still cannot be duplicated. Mike is and always was a waterman...he does rolls and airs but that line at pipe was classic..for someone to say anyone could do that has never paddled out at pipe or known how someone makes the difficult look so easy. Much aloha Mike.
@gun5050nar I rode for Mike for years with Gyroll, then Viper and on to Science when they first started! He is a great guy and a GOD in this sport! I respect Mike to the up most! Who ever said they could do this? is a KOOK! Mike would laugh at that comment and move on to the next!
Still the best, way to go Mike! He is SURFING to the max. Not trying to outsmmart the wave, get air and all of that. There is something very pure and inspirational in Mike's surfing.
you gotta be kidding me. anyone can do that. he held the same line for the whole way. itd be different if did a reverse jam off the end bowl or something, but not just sitting there and holding on
lol no one is kidding you but yourself that was a grate ride he would have eaten that inside reef if he didn't charge it full speed ahead its not all about doing a 360 on every wave or a reverse jam as u call it, give a little respect
