This day at Teahupoo- Aug 27th 2011 during the Billabong Pro waiting period is what many are calling the biggest and gnarliest Teahupoo ever ridden. Chris Bryan was fortunate enough to be there working for Billabong on a day that will go down in the history of big wave surfing. The French Navy labeled this day a double code red prohibiting and threatening to arrest anyone that entered the water.

Kelly Slater described the day by saying "witnessing this was a draining feeling being terrified for other people's lives all day long, it's life or death. Letting go of that rope one time can change your life and not many people will ever experience that in their life."

All images where shot by Chris Bryan using the Phantom HD Gold camera. To see more of Chris' work check out his website.

El pasado 27 de agosto de 2011 en Teahupoo, durante el período de espera del Billabong Pro, es considerado por muchos el día mas excelso y grande surfeado en Teahupoo de todos los tiempos. Chris Bryan tuvo la suerte de estar allí trabajando para Billabong en un día que pasará a la historia del surf de olas grandes. La marina francesa calificó este día un código rojo de doble prohibición y amenazando con arrestar a cualquiera que entraba en el agua.

Kelly Slater describió el día diciendo "fui testigo de la sensación de estar aterrado por las vidas de otras personas durante todo el día, testigo de la vida o la muerte. Soltar el invento pudo cambiar su vida, algo que no muchas personas han podido experimentar".

La cámara utilizada en la grabación de Chris Bryan fué la Phantom HD Gold, capaz de seleccionar velocidades de hasta 1.500 fps en Alta Resolución.
