Watching This Gave Me a New Appreciation for Surfing

This footage was filmed at Teahupo’o (south-west coast of Tahiti and world-famous surf spot) on August 27th, 2011 during the Billabong Pro waiting period. A lot of riders called it the biggest Teahupoo ever ridden. Chris Bryan filmed this. The French Navy said it was a double code red prohibiting and threatening to arrest anyone that entered the water.
