GNARLY downwind send! Maui to Molokai to Oahu on hydrofoil
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 июн 2024
- I have had this idea of connecting Maui, Molokai, and Oahu on hydrofoil unassisted for a few months now. We have raced these channels before but only with an escort boat. I called up my friend Hobey Moss to join me and he was down! Enjoy the RAW POV action.
THIS WAS PERFORMED BY TRAINED PROFESSIONALS. DO NOT ATTEMPT.
Imagine surfing at Waikiki, looking back for your next set, and all of a sudden you see these two approaching from the deep blue.
yea id be like thats a nice board. do they make them for men?
I’d only seen those hydrofoil boards with a motor attached to them, mind blowing how fast & far you can go with just the foils, leg power, and tons of youthful courage. Great adventure, awesome editing, great vid. Congrats to both of you - this one’s bound to stay in your hard-drive long enough to tell your own kids about it.😊
It has a motor lol how do you think it moves?
@@extremechimpout You couldn't be more wrong - the ones that do are called e-foils, where the "e" stands for their built in electric motor, which are the ones I mentioned I'd seen before. The ones this kid rides are fully autonomous and rely on water currents, balance and the pumping action you see him doing. The reason he makes it look so effortless is simply due to the fact that he is one of the best in the world at it, and his buddy is really good as well. The science behind this technology is fascinating and quite intricate - check out this vid explaining the physics of it all, though to be honest a lot of it goes beyond my comprehension - basically they work akin to airplane wings, where the water current as opposed to air beneath the wings creates the lift you see. Of note, all I've read since watching this vid mentions that it's extremely difficult to master them, and many suggest you need to be an experienced surfer first - the other option is learning with the e-powered ones.
Here's a deep dive into the physics: ruclips.net/video/fzig8JR2iT0/видео.html
He’s using the waves and currents also.
@@Ryan-go9wc Yeah and the engine
@@extremechimpoutlook at time stamp 11:32. No motor. These are human powered
I didn’t know this was even possible, that’s awesome, you guys are nuts!
without a motor it isnt. he barely pumps at all....
"You caught a nugget from outside? Bro, we caught this wave all the way from Molokai..."
Aloha!
I am so glad you two did this together for mutual support and also for sharing it with a comrade.
This is science fiction come to science fact.
Next is Hawaii to California.
Idk about Hawaii to California, but maybe California to Alaska ?! Great fun thought right ?!!
Looks amazing! Thanks RUclips algorithm, I got to know something cool that's new to me.
The blue of that water will forever amaze me!!
Epic crossings, I’ve crossed the Ka’iwi channel 5 times by sailboat from LA. Seeing those swells brings back a flood of memories. There’s nothing like downwind swell riding.😎
40 miles ?! Absolutely amazing man!!!! Fantastic fun!!!! Absolutely the greatest water adventure device EVER created: THE FOIL. 🎤 drop.💯
Incredible.. so stoked you made it ❤
Something so satisfying about watching the foil blade cut through the water. I need to try this. Thank you for sharing this adventure. Loved watching it. ...I'd need like a heavy duty mini umbrella that I could deploy to pull me when my legs get tired...that is one hell of a work out.
Epic ride!! It would be great to see the angle from on the board, right behind you. Those "flying" moments with your arms out - the viewer would just FEEL it with you, visually. So beautiful! Mahalo for this uplifting video! 🌺 🌺 🌺
Thank you Jack for the video! This is absolutely awe inducing video.
How awesome is that! Congrats guys❤
Absolutely awesome you guys, epic achievement.
Thank you for sharing this, really nice edit. The second downwinder with the violin music is particularly nice to watch 🤩. Also insane performance.
This was a really great effort! So glad you guys made it without any trouble!
wow dudes. This is my introduction to hydrofoil... 😂😂😂😂 coolest video ive seen in a long time. Great job
Insane, love it. Now you're voyaging!!
From ripping Blalock to crossing channels. You are living a good life! Hello from Oregon 😊
I never knew hydrofoils could surf ocean swells! What an amazing feat, thanks for sharing your journey. I’m envious of that freedom 😊
Fearless and brave!!
Well done both of yall
Super cool!! Just love it!
Madness. Props to you both!
🤙🏽 this video giving me flashbacks on my journeys through the Ka’iwi channel and Pailolo too. Na Wahine o Ke Kai 5x. Never a dull moment lots of mental thoughts tho. So awesome you guys did without escort boats. Just send um, one speed kine.. 😂 Solid. Mahalo fo Sharing🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽😂
Epic video. 🙌🏼
Great job guys. A true adventure. Very inspirational. I will save this video and may contact you soon for an even more interesting challenge.
The fact that this is possible is mind blowing to me. You guys kick ass!!
he did it with a motor he removed for the full shot of the foil to appear to be able to do something no one else can
Yeah Boys!!!! This gets me stoked on the July Races!!!
wow wow wow to this! Epic send braddas
Great video! Insane treck!
Epic lads, love from Sydney
the conditions at the end looked dreamy.. fast and clean..I don't do DW but kite and wing now. 65yo just started. From Alaska hard to be a waterperson LOL
Awesome vid!!
F'ing love it. Congrats. Keep pushing limits!
Amazing. I didn't know this was possible. Wow. A knee workout for sure
Nice Brahhh, you took off right down the street from my place in Napili. Aloha
Wow, so epic! Glad this vid found me :)
Wow the freedom of that moment in life.. I felt that
Epic, and what a magical experience to be out there with the birds (Laysan Albatross I think?) dynamic soaring the waves.
Heard pan pans bout sup boarders headed to Oahu from Molokai. Glad to see you guys made it.
i dont know anything about hydrofoiling but this is so sick!!!
Nice job boys!
I could feel your stoke. Glad you believed and made it happen.
That was incredible! I dream of doing that on kiteboard (I don't actually kiteboard) and I've sailed that on a 36' boat but you did it on a stick. I'm laughing at teh surfers in Waiks like " Where did you guys come form?"
It’s so interesting. I really want to know the mechanics behind it. Cool video brah thanks for sharing
Incredible! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
worlds biggest playground at your disposal! so awesome for you. living the best life.
The cameraman swimming beside him:
🏊🏻😫🏊🏻🥵🏊🏻😫🏊🏻🥵😮💨
I love your channel... Soon you all will be giving hydrofoils away. I live in Oxnard California, love to you send it to Channel Islands... if possible!
insane send some people would think twice before doing that on an actual boat!
You guys are real Waterman excellent
I dont understand much of this but I am very impressed
Unreal send boys!!🔥Incredible footy too!
Action bradahz 💯🤙🏾🤙🏾
AWESOMENESS!!!
Mental congrats 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Ive done that Pailolo crossing in my two man kayak with my friend flying a kite in the front. So fun
Watching this at 2am on the upper west side of Manhattan. Didn’t know this even existed. Clearly, I have to go down the YT black hole on this. Guess I’m going into work late tomorrow
I have _never_ heard of this sport until now and I'm fascinated by the mechanics of it. I'd love to model those wings and run some CFD on them to see how they generate lift and what performance improvements could be made.
That’s so badass
This is gnarly, not many can say they have done something like this.
Amazing! I'd love to learn. It's probably a lot harder than it looks tho'!
Subscribed. How much for one of those hydrofoils? All who love freedom should Love this!
Super cool! You should have a vfh .
Huge Props!! Aloha!
Dude that was psycho, crushed it.
That was insane
Super dope and inspiring! Thanks for your energy and spirit, Boyz!! Aloha!
Frick yeah boys! That’s insane, good job!!
Nice! Next up -- Oahu to Kalapaki Bay
Aloha. That was insane.
super sick, and crazy
Shortest ancient Hawaiian voyage:
Epic! All time! Wanna know what it felt like: Fear? Exhausting? Easier/harder than you thought? Did you guys take a break or one shot? You should send this in to Good Morning America or similar show! Mahalo!
Thank you! It was amazing. There’s so much energy in these channels and to get to do them without an escort really shows you how small you are. It’s really easy to get caught up in the mix when you’re racing and there’s other competitors and other boats around you . But when you’re solo, it’s a whole nother level of excitement and adrenaline. Pure concentration and pure flow state - extremely relaxing to be honest.
Brave. Crazy.... be Safe!
AWESOME!
Oahu to Kaua'i next?!?! Awesome send...great video! Aloha!!
that's really far... and would require a lot of prep and planning... I dont even like flying my plane over that much open water.. let alone a hydrofoil. i'm sure the difficulty in that is at least 1000x more than maui to molokai. kert. lanai hawaii.
@@kertshuster7840 stay tuned...
All Time
What happen if you lose Moment and fall of board can you just bounce it back up?
Super nice video, how many kilometres was the longest crossing ?
What did I just watch? Man that’s crazy. Like you think they would at least have a kite.
Very impressive, foils on everything! What would've been useful would've been a map with some marks on it to show the route...
Epic footage! That's almost as impressive as the downwinding. Well done guys! You were clearly tripping at the end of the video and rightly so. Amazing achievement!
What Code gear was Hobey on?
Thank you! It was insane! Hobey was 770R and 135 tail. Short Fues.
So no motor? Just pump a few times and you will fly for how long? That looks insane. Have you ever crashed into a turtle or a shark or something that made you go flying head first? Tell me about it. Aloha. Im just freediving.
Wondering the same. Like do they literally foil 100% of the time? Need to know more, really want to get into this.
They are surfing the swells that travel downwind. The paddling and pumping help build or maintain speed as they catch swells or move between swells, most of the energy for the trip comes from the waves. This takes incredible skill and guts to ride this far.
I love those brand new 2003 Toyota Tacomas!
god mode, full send
Hey. You changed from eagle x 800 to 900 for this downwind. Is it only for the take off with the paddle to make it less tiring? Or is it also for the ride itself? Can you explain the differences you feel between the 800 and 900. thx
Same exact wing. One just has a little bit more lift and glide. I used a 900 because I wanted to cruise and stand. Conserve energy too.
How fast were you going and how long did the trips take?
Shout out to you brother. Great video, and even more amazing journey. If it's cool, I wanted to shout you out and play some of your video on my podcast. Much Aloha brother.
Edit: I subbed you up 🤙
Mahalo! Go ahead, I would be honored to be mentioned.
@@jackfromtown Right On Brother.
I actually go live in an hour. Shoots, less than an hour. Hopefully I'll see you in chat. Would love to have you there to promote you a little more. 🤙 Shoots, maybe have you on panel, if interested.
What size foils front/back and mask length where you guys using, thanks for sharing your video.Glad was a safe foiling trip
900/145/80
What kine gear were you rockin big dawg? What kinda board and foil?
Dang so you’re saying I could just cruise after the ferry from NY to CT? Looks sick! If I weren’t rightfully scared of the ocean you’d probably catch me on the news… or maybe not cause I could totally cheat with our unused boat.
This is freaking amazing! Island to island on foils! So I don't understand, how do they keep going? What's providing the forward push? Whatever it is, it's very cool. Well done lads.
Epic. That last music track was sick, what is it? Need that for my playlist.
fire vid, what was that last song?
How are you able to get footage like that when foiling
What propelled you on this trip? Was it the currents or the wind? I see the record for flat water is like 5 minutes of pumping to self propel . You guys got a free ride somehow. It was amazing and very daring. Thanks for the video.
Awesome!
Would a wing suit be a good add on if it's the wind that drives you?
