Best Wave Ever

[TheLightning565]

Only Americans could make something this epic fucking gay, by having bullshit interviews...

[sxr951]

AAAA++++!!GREAT E-BAYER! WOULD BUY AGAIN! oops! wrong window!.lol

[JoeyWoz15]

pretty rad. not the best ever. 90 feet off portugal. g-mac kicks lairds ass. come at me bro.

[UtterCrapProd]

dude what the freak

[Convisis]

really, who clicks dislike on something like this?

[RamboFreedom]

This is an experience just watching

[jorge1995ful]

i beat half of you guys wouldnt even surf this so stop saying this is the best wave coz for me is 5 foot right handed wave barreling thumbs up if you think so

[armenbob]

Godlike MoMoMOonster WaVe

[mpv81]

It's an awesome wave yeah. Mind Blowing for 2000. The thing is that now guys are paddling into waves like this. Look at the recent monster swell at CloudBreak. Hell, watch CJ Hobgood's paddle in Teahupoo bomb from "Campaign 2" from 2005.

[Torn80cj]

Tsunami hybrid.

[megakillatronV1]

its beautiful

[wavesmag]

incredulistic

[freebeerforthumbsup]

i got goosebumbs watching that..... and i didnt breath the whole time he was on that wave in slowmo :S

[zuluamuse]

Beautiful! and to ride it back hand. Also, look at Drollett's wave at the same place.

[youdontneedone]

i dont know about you guys put i think a good wave is 5 or 4 foot i dont want to die

[JeD9671]

that is from riding giants

[WILDBOY122]

man that shits impossible you dont do that LMFAO!!!

[Joecaddy]

speachless...

[FatTonyCologino]

natural physicist

[Michaelmop]

Fucking awesome...

[Bethalaine]

I think I shit my pants

[Theboardsurfer]

That is not a wave. That is tons of water moving over an open reef. That was definitely the sickest wave ridden at the time.

[homoporno]

thats not a wave u morans! THATS WAVEZILLA!

[muddwell]

That shit is crazy. Check out how high the spray is at 1:22. Balls of fucking steel.

[imadSKATEREEF]

Oh  Nice (l)

[santaslittledude]

take a speed boat off the top try to feelof how it feels.

[seblemer]

HOLY FUCK AT 1:05

[hardcoremore13]

There are far sketchier and dangerous waves out there.

Still incredible though especially since he is on his backhand

[ionutzz02]

That's not a simple wave..THAT'S A TSUNAMI!

[geneaoforum]

um yea

[21WoOoW1886]

this wave is fucking crazy!

[shiryet]

Waves are not "fun" it slams you onto the ground as if you were falling off a tree.

[5thElementTV]

fuck that shit is insane

[billysurfboy]

i have this movie. riding giants is the bessssssssttttttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!

[SexWaxSurfer100]

Jesus! I Forgot To Breath! Love The Way Laird Rides... Thnxs M8..

[sumthinotherthanthat]

Vintage video. Ledgendary ride. 'Nuff said.

[deluxairhead]

Well well Jaun Kemps would have paddled in !

All the time thinking maybe that 5'10" twinny would have been the stick to ride !

Cos it aint surfin if you don't turn !

He da the man Jaun Kemps.............

[warz0mbie]

I think Teahupoo is the hardest wave, not the best one

[ilovebodyboard]

to be honest, its not THAT great but it is awesome

[Jitpring]

Exactly. There's lots of exaggeration here, lots of hype. It's a great ride, but I've seen better there.

[Anntelope]

I'd die if I even saw a wave like that from two miles away on the top of a mountain. LOLOL.

[MetalheadPwd]

"maan, that shits impossible, you don't do that". ahahaha

[dredelapinia]

notice how the top half of the wave turns into the lip inmagine that thing hitting your directly in the middle of your back

[nematoad7]

lol 1;01 hes not going back to teahupoo

[xXxafraptorxXx]

thats a monster swell

[Flamefoxez]

whoa that thing is AWESOME!!

i dont even think chuck norris could destroy that thing

[smileypie22000]

When Chuck Norris roundhouse kicked underwater in the ocean one day Teahupoo was the result of the tsunami force.

[SmoothSkating]

ahahahaha genius

[Dubskies]

@Flamefoxez

Obviously you are a moron, Chuck Norris farted underwater and made that.....

[Jevhova]

@Flamefoxez Walker Texas Ranger went off the air because chuck norris died trying to surf Teahupoo

[illestoftheday]

biggy up respect

[bodyb0arder]

one of the best feelings in the world probably

[catherinaalkazam]

nieprawdopodobne!;D

[kmations11]

Holy shit man thats just a crazy sight

[srfbum83]

wow sam george is such a kook

[vbvbvb1]

two words, Shock And Awe. Awesome

[Jitpring]

Incidentally, why so much hype here? "It affected the course of big-wave surfing history." Nonsense. Complete horseshit. A good ride, yes, but it hardly had such cosmic consequences. I've seen many heavier rides, as all of you have.

[colefire4]

chopus lip= 8 ft when its 20ft out there

[Jitpring]

Laird actually has a semi-barney style. But he definitely has balls.

[TeikiKimball]

Laird is the MAN.

[dzoolk]

did he ever do that again?

[david13395]

I am gods gift to women

[jlr6]

he inspires me!

[chamberzlad]

dfinatlyes evr ride

[Howtoown]

At the time yes hands down it was the most insane beast of a wave but know days there Ours shark park just tons of insane reefs but its still insane

[buddha713]

he just makes it look so easy

[ilovewater9]

this is off the riding giants video

[8795tg]

Its out ov sync other than that THAT WAVE ROCKED

[evilcheese439]

that wave was sick, but he barely got shacked.

[AnjelicaJonas]

1:11 that looked like it could snep his neck backwards!

[yeswithcheese]

hes such a humble guy with such apreciation for the sea

[justinhchawaii]

defining moment

[arsening]

ow that has got to hurt 1.03

[apiesboy]

Shane dorian got the best of laird in 06. look it up, much much larger wave at teahupoo

[kinkytwista]

i bet laird never felt so alive pulling that wave off.

im glad that monster let him pass.

[colefire4]

ive seen him catch 80ft waves over at jaws. but this has much more consequences than jaws since its like 2ft there and jaws is 10-30 ft deep

[kinkytwista]

agree! its not the size that matters...its the speed, volume and total power of this wave that is amaising....not to mention what happens if you get smashed onto this reef and pushed into one off the many crevices and drown. laird has balls of steel as well as the skill to pull that wave off (as not many others have).

[Tyrantid]

That's the most beautiful wave I've ever seen. Nice.

[ptbreaksurfer]

knar

[skatenerd]

iv got this dvd

daird is a king at bigwave surfing

[Walnut7Man555]

Rock on Laird !

[xx0gub0xx]

wow!

[HolyToledo0089]

uber gnar

[versaldude26]

love it just love it..would love to kiss teahupoo face to face..

[DubsWest]

It`s when people go to the extreme to make things happen.Thats surfing of the highest quality.

[sebastianhans1]

The emotions going through him at the end, when he has his face in his hands is something none of us will ever experience.

[Darkrider889]

OMG!!!!!!!

[LiveBaitFilms]

un fucking believeable this guy is a god

[wesurfeveryday]

i would say it was lairds best ride, but not THE BEST ride.

[ander407]

1:05 = owned

[alfa2389]

nice, but my grandmother used to ride that wave

[chenVcu]

i would die just from hearing the sound of that thing breaking lol

[allLightsonme]

wicked sick

[waitaminwtfmate]

man hes amazing, a superhero that was an amazing ride.. omg i could go on forever if you realised how heavy and large these waves are and how on this particular wave look close... cuz its unlike almost anyother wave ive seen and how laird truly is the most skilled and brave sufer out there so far... watch this show if u can it was on discovery channel

[smv2119]

what song

[smv2119]

wats the song when hes riding the wave at the end

[dancindolan]

RIP

[sexysurfer10]

thats a big ass wave!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!if he had a fell he would of died instant

[buddha713]

is teahupoo a country or what???

also Ive never gotten barreled in my LIFE and i have been surfing ALL SUMMER.....hehe JK

[Voloskaya]

Teahupoo is located in Tahiti

[kazuyajap]

France that is

[Voloskaya]

yep

[skyline708]

teahupoo is a reefbreak in Tahiti(French Polynesia) in pacific ocean and it have this MASSIVE wave!

[minibrophdawg]

how big is the wave exactly

[skyline708]

This wave i really dont know, but you cand find a clip called "Teahupoo biggest wave ever ridden so far-Manoa Drollet" and that wave have aproximatly 10 meteres. It is really the most MASSIVE wave i ever seen!

[minibrophdawg]

its such a big and thick wave and it shoots sooo much air and water out the end

[freerunner2450]

You guys, it's called Teahupoo, but pronounced Chopu. I would like to say that Laird is a legend, but Manoa took this tittle.

[StormyGirl10]

as for cold african, he blows as much as the commentator, until I see him in a video on chopu

[StormyGirl10]

hold your breath bra

[ad10am]

that wave seemed thick even for chopes, thats why I think it gets so much hype.

[coldafrican]

There are many before and after him... Americans r dramatic...i think the one guy commenting wants to suck laird off..

[coldafrican]

Hes not the only one to have surfed it that big. There are many before and after him...

[lookn0ver]

the funny thing about something like this is that it is not the end....there is always a something out there bigger and badder...but for this moment it is the first man on the moon syndrome and what may be the greater'' next'' is probably a ways off...for now my guess is people are going to tame this thing and die trying until it is so.

[backyards808]

Teahupoo has already taken a life...

[dimebagg3darrell]

R.I.P. MALIK JOYEAUX

[xicolong]

Malik died at Pipe...

[Swollzach]

lol the lip is a thick as the wave is tall, this video never ceases to amaze me....

[sublime95]

Wiping out is not an option when riding this wave. You are a dead man if you wipe out on this.

[poon5000]

OMG these waves are the best in the world and this is the best surfing video I ever found. Love it!

[DubSurfer]

I don't know about that, Riding Giants was a great movie (i own it) but the Billabong Odyssey is a great one also. If you haven't seen it you should.

[MRSBA7]

veautifull nature

[hazelfawn]

OMG!!

[valland55]

effin incredible!!! words fail.

[Fendy1]

Good stuff!

[ScreenEyes]

It IS the most incredible wave ever ridden because Larid actually takes a position on the board nobody has ever taken before, in such a powerful and monstrouous wave!

[nuthincomin]

wow ur gay

[perrbear615]

wow. just wow. that wave is the heaviest shit ive ever seen. amazing, laird.

[MasterKat]

The man has 10 ton titanium balls.
