  • Why don't you pull this clip from "Riding Giants" and pass it off as your own!! I'm sure you are Llaird Hamilton or one of the guys in that movie! Lol There are only about 100 people in the world with the skill to ride one of those waves. The rest of us just dream that it was us in the movies we get to watch about them. Hahaha nice clip though!! I believe that's Jaws off the island of Maui.

  • @professorx97 The surfer riding the wave is Mike Parsons. Hi is one those guys you mentioned. He has one the XXL big wave award and has been a professional surfer for decades. This clip was pulled from the Billabong Odyssey, not Riding Giants.

  • Yes it's amazing cinematography.  I have a stupid question: do they shoot this from a helicopter? The camera seems so steady, but I guess helicopters have a smooth ride...

  • @MaxwellsDemon9

    Helicopters don't have a smooth ride actually so we use gyro stabilized support systems. They take experience to opeate. I specialize in aerials for action sports. Thanks for the note. Let us know if you need a good production team for anything.
