This day wasn't just the best Cloudbreak ever, this was peobably one of the best all-time days of big wave surfing anywhere on the planet, ever. Without a doubt.
It does NOT get better than this. Training and over the top passion puts you in the lineup. If you haven’t done the work you’re nobody on this day. FACTS
I was hoping this clip would resurface. I don't think it's a stretch to say this is a contender for the best session in history. And this clip is easily my favourite
For me it was, watching from the comfort of my lounge room screaming at the live stream. Unforgettable. Very rare to catch a swell like that with so many cameras already set up. Great edit. Nice to see some of those waves from a different perspective. Nuts.
Ramon Navarro caught the ride of the day (3:14) and that's saying something given the volume of "wave of you life" that were caught that day. Then he goes and catches the greatest wave EVER a few years later at the same break. Legend.
Thank you for reminding me about this one. I came here because of an article that didn't even mention that. Oh I forgot! Ramon es apenas un sudamericano.
If I had video of myself ripping any one of these waves in this swell like anyone of these guys here, that'd be trophy for me there. Maaan! Hole nother level of commitment to pull off one a these. Scary as hell , terrifying. Serious day right here.
Would love to hear the comparisons of this size Cloudbreak to Chopes. From here looks like Cloudbreak is an easier entry. But is different down the line with tidal changes. And gets harder. Still! Great waves and surfing.
How can you go back to civilian life after a barrel like that "1:22". I wouldn't be able to sleep for a week after that high. Waves like this make me happy I'm goofy foot. Unfortunately, I'm not equipped with the 2 20lb bowling balls required to drop in.
That one wave at 2:42? That one cast a shadow, watched those boards to up that monster, slowly, detached cause whose gonna get dragged by that. Nobody rode it, that's death, that green monster.

I remember watching this on the live stream. I couldn't take my eyes away for a single moment.

No words for this. Beyond description....
02:44 insane. the soundtrack is so rad too. nice one guys.
The soundtrack? Ew no, just like no, lol
they snuck a tahiti wave in there
@@tfsurfburnitup I assume you are kidding. That was all Cloudbreak. Some of the giants sets were breaking like Chopes that day.
That empty one was easily the best. Mental power
Empty for a reason lol
@@Trousersz Total mutant giant! RAAAAAAAAAARRRR!!!
Not even "Bodi" from "Point Break" woulda rode that death train.
Best waves, ever. Not for mortals, but for huge, long barrels at the edge of paddle-ability, that swell can't be beat.
This video at cloudbreak is heaven itself , the music is just a distraction for you, what a session
Yes, the Arcade Fire cover is atrocious, lol
Sometimes the water is like glass. Beautiful!!!
It does NOT get better than this. Training and over the top passion puts you in the lineup. If you haven’t done the work you’re nobody on this day. FACTS
3:15 it’s so moving to see someone actually get the wave of his life at the exact right time in his life.
Only to then catch the greatest wave of anyone's lifetime May 5th 2022 at the same break.
ramone navaro
Reef Macintosh well done 👏 👏 nice soundtrack to suit this vid
The soundtrack? Uh no, just no lol
Most Beautiful day ever! Thanks for capturing the action in HD

Holy cow, this is next-level stuff! 👏👏👏 breakneck speeds there...
that's a beautiful looking wave, but it could punish you big time. Great footage, love the sound track too
The soundtrack? Uh, no lol
very nice waves and shots/editing.
My favorite wave

2:43 The heaviest wave I've ever seen in 60 years of surfing.
For me it's 75!
Insane footage!
Thanks!
I thought the wave at 0:54 was insane until the wave at 2:43 . Stuff of dreams...and nightmares
Same
Did the first guy who bailed and dove under make it? I have my doubts....
@@SD2OCsponger That wave at 2:43 was INSANE!
@@iblong9505God, imagine going over the falls on that beast!!
Amazing seeing a few guys stall a bit, pretty good
That wave at 0:54 is the most pure, raw, savage and perfect wave ive ever saw. I wanna pay 15 k and sit there only to wait for a similar one
Man it takes serious balls to padle into that thing.
1:00 is one of the best waves I’ve ever seen anywhere
At 1:10 looks perfect to me...just perfect!
Incredible, some metal ones. Great short movie, super sick 🤙🤙
Beautiful. Looks like a smaller version of chopo. Not to much smaller tho lol.
That wave at 2:44 was frightening. I think that guy got sucked over the falls too.
Cloudbreak is perfect from 2 feet up to 20 feet. Incredible.
Would love to hear the comparisons of this size Cloudbreak to Chopes. From here looks like Cloudbreak is an easier entry. But is different down the line with tidal changes. And gets harder. Still! Great waves and surfing.
I wonder if those guys at 2:58 pushed through or went over the falls? Insanely heavy...
0:55 and 2:45 two of the scariest and most perfect waves I’ve ever seen at cloud
Aww yerh , pity theem who left it too late to get over the top and went over the falls ::: big time - thanks for the time markers ;-)
What a perfect name for this wave
looks chopes & cloud mutation

is the tahatian wave teaphooo being mixed in this video as well?
You got to have big ones for this
At least the music is scaring all the sharks away😂
Waow. Wonderful. Thanks for the dream 🤙🤙🤙🤙
That one wave at 2:42? That one cast a shadow, watched those boards to up that monster, slowly, detached cause whose gonna get dragged by that. Nobody rode it, that's death, that green monster.
‘Poetry in motion.. ☝🏽🌊🏄♂️🤙🏽
looking like Chopes! some hellmen chargers
Beautiful wave forms. This must be the average surfers wet dream. In some of the shots the top lip of the waves look about as tall as a person.
webcast of a lifetime... hard to believe it was over a decade ago. that wave with healy's board in it D:
@2:48 you can that the 2 most inside guys paddling, are slowing down contemplating whether to stop paddling and start diving or keep going.
You could work for the WSL to film from the drone during comps !
Sick! 😮 when was this swell?
Just…….. BEAUTIFUL.
I rather enjoyed the music and the waves.
The music? Ew, just like no, lol
These are the waves I drew on my maths book
Speechless.
those giant walls It’s like some kind of alien movie.
Could you post the raw footage with original sound?
you never put this footage out before?
getting a barrel like that has to be almost like being in heaven
2:44 HOLY MOTHER OF GOD!
Some engaging footage with impressive videography but in addition some other angles of the action would further enhance the video!
White rashie did a full Nats Florence. 10/10.
The amount of force needed to push so much water SO far over the break for so long... man.
Great beat
For those asking how good the pros consider Cloudbreak to be, didn't Kelly say that this was his favorite wave on the planet?
Just let nature give us the “music”.
Check out the Raw session on my channel
Superb. 🤙
It was a day for eternity .
What do you expect from the pacific ocean? Nothing but perfection and raw, raw power.
Wingnut deserves the medal of honor out there. He’s going home
Who is wingnut?
@ its a reference to endless summer 2. They surft cloudbreak in that movie
No flotation?? Seems way too big to not have something
Was that last ride a tow-in ? He was hauling ass..😊
Pretty sure that's Reef McIntosh and no tow-ins.
WOW THE WAVE at 2:50 I think it for got to be at teahupoo 😂😂😂
Magnificent.
Just another day at the beach.🎉😂
What was the date of this swell?! Psycho!
Amazing.
that was crazy....
Damn, All Time !
Top 15 Riders of all time Jon Insco SfcA
Goofy foot heaven! It does exist!
This is where I want to die.
unbelievable wave
soooo good!
Best wave in the world
EVER THE BEST EVERRRR🎉🎉🎉
ah man the title had me thinking it did it again
Phenomenal.
Not heavier than teahuppo not bigger than nazare or jaws.But close enough to all of them. But I think this is the best big wave in the planet.
God has to be a surfer
@2:44 WTF
MUTANT!!!
God Wave
and to think this was during the contest window...
Kala alexander? Where? You forgot to mention ramon navarro
55 seconds in through 1:07 omg unreal
Cloudbreak looking like teauhpoo
Best one ever
We all look for that one
The best ever
If this is footage of the contest free surf way back when, then yes. Please acknowledge the time period of the video before asking that question.
Best wave on earth!?
Always more impressive at normal speed...
Oh yeah, 👌 perfect
