    I’m sorry for all the comments but this is perhaps perfectly put when it comes to water sports.
    Thanks Kai for the thorough visual and poet way of showing us the courage it takes to hop off the rocks. Any rocks. Around the world those who leap with courage and trust in themselves is what a watermen is all about.

      I'm reminded of Angelo Dundee's book about boxing: "anyone whom swings their leg over the rope is brave"

    I never knew that paddling out was so difficult. That was insane.

    Possibly the heaviest experience in surfing.. paddling out and then back in at peahi, not to mention actually catching a wave out there..

    I knew it was hard as I have watched some paddle out videos of Jaws but this was by far the most intense. It looked like a life for death situation. The way it washes over the rocks without loosing any power.

      @0warami_7oo 3 дня назад

      Actually it does lose all its power right there on the rocks! That’s the end of the journey for the energy !

      @@0warami_7oo yes, you are right. I was just trying to say that it was rushing over the rocks with such power.

    Can you imagine how many shatters and lost fins these guys boards would have when letting their boards go and smashed against the rocks!!!?? 😂😂😂Worth the paddle out get a jet ski save yourself the embarrassment’s of getting in by yourself 😂😂😂😂😂

    360p adds to the roughness quite well, not to mention the added "kaBOOMmm" sound of each wave lol

    Picture a big, hinged acrylic tube floating on the water with pontoons under it. Waves just go under it. Some big waves go over it. Put a powered pulley in the tube and latch on like it's a ski lift.

    Kai Lenny my neighbor just lives minutes from here, and I think he surfs a lot here because I follow him sometimes, and he always ends up here, or the grocery store in Tehi! Meh halo

    You gotta have balls of steel to even attempt getting past the rocky beach break......once accomplished said balls become titanium, provided your surfboard is still in one piece...... after that if you actually catch a wave your balls turn into diamonds !

    What about paddling out from pawella cove. Used to surf in there when the swells were big. Nobody surfed Jaws then, & didnt even have that name. But we saw perfect huge waves that had no good jump off or paddle out. Did see the wind surfers hit it first. Which is why I ask would the cove be a better place to get out. The paddle would be longer but as long as the cove wqasnt closing out I would think that would be a better option even for the skis.

    Why don't these guys know how to duck dive the waves these are just in shore waves that are small can imagine when they start getting out there shouldn't be out there if they can't even paddle out from the shore give me a break

    • @SamSam-ny6gt
      @SamSam-ny6gt 2 дня назад +5

      You sound like an absolute kook. These guys are surfing one of the most dangerous waves with probably the most dangerous entry from the shore in the world.
      You don't even seem to understand they're riding guns which you cannot duck dive, even if they could duck dive them (which is impossible) they still would not avoid the power and turbulence of those waves.
