  • 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.

    I'm 50. Been surfing since 1981. Born & raised Ocean Beach/Sunset Cliffs San Diego Ca. Surfed some big spots, very big. However, I would never ever tow into this beast. Mahalo Chris for sharing your footage. Aloha, Uncle Bobby

      I’m mid 60s, surfed from age 10 till my mid 50s when the wheels fell of due to arthritis. Have been thinking a tow in on such a beast of a wave could be a great way to euthanise myself. Probably have to bolt a Zimmer frame to the board 😂
      If I made the fist one I guess I would just keep going until I didn’t.

    Most mesmerising wave. It’s the thickness of the lip that is just awesome.

    Wow, that may be the best surf video I've ever seen, and I've seen a lot. The ultra slow motion and high definition on my TV gave me that sick feeling I get when I paddle out on a huge day.

    I got scared in a too big for me surprise swell in France,.. 10ft with a 1ft lip. Just watching these walls marching in like an army standing straight up with an off shore wind felt eerily personal as if they had me singled out and coming for ME ... They had like a personality, i could've given them names... Really caught me off guard being a beginner and all. Really traumatizing to be stuck in between. I do not understand how these guys can commit to that level... has to be a near death experience just being there experiencing all that input.

    It is a Miracle every time someone rides the whole Wave, the whole way through until the wave ends and in actually calm water. It's dangerous but that is strangely part of the beauty. You have to have surrendered completely to God, and the Power of His Creation and your hopes to ride the wave and live(yes, really), all the way till it ends, long before You choose Your wave, commit with the intention that You will do what You came there to do, ride it till it ends❤️‍🔥.

    Horrifying to think this wave breaks in less than 6 feet of water. Basically the average man could stand on the reef and still breathe.

    The one guy that you couldn’t tell if he made it out or not was in what I call the dark. And he was in it, we only usually experience that in Florida when we have a hurricane and dirty water where the sun doesn’t penetrate and you get in the dark.
