    So glad there was no music added to this. The sound of the waves, wind and stokies keeps the atmosphere authentic. Good job 👍

    Those are the best waves I have ever seen recorded on video period. The skill level of the surfers is off the charts too. Kai Lenny in particular had some of the most classic rides I've ever seen anywhere.

    right about 1997, i was 13 years old, hopped in a car with steve cooney and his girlfriend at the time, my first time meeting steve and realizing how great of a surfer and a person he was.
    we slow rolled from Lahaina to Ma'alaea, it was perfect, exactly like this footage and nearly this big, strong offshore winds and just big perfect Maalaea
    i lived maui for 15 years and that day was the most perfect ive ever seen Freight Trains untill i watched this just now
    Maui has its share of amazing waves, ive seen malawarf, honolua and windmills more than a hand full of times at their best
    But catching Freight trains like this, now thats something very special

    Classic Ma'alaea. It was always a dream to surf this place. I'm so glad the Army Corps of Engineers didn't destroy this spot with the proposed breakwater. It's one of the best waves in the world when it's on.

    • @redeyestones3738
      @redeyestones3738 2 года назад +7

      Ya, glad so many of us protested the expansion of the harbor. Can't believe they were actually considering destroying not only this legendary wave, but more importantly the ecosystem that exists on this reef.

    The swell direction has to be oh so perfect for Ma'alaea to break like this video. It had enough South to get through the island shadowing and not close out down the line. One of the best swells I've seen over the past 56 years. Not the biggest but the best.

  • @michellewaldrip8271
    @michellewaldrip8271 2 года назад +3

    This is amazing! Had a decent south swell (not like this, but still) come in early May when our family was on-island. Lotta people up Lahaina-way out catching rides, before or after work, anybody who could make the time to get out there. This is definitely more intense, super-cool to watch.

    • @brianbirc
      @brianbirc Год назад

      remindes me of a place I lived very close too. Not very consistent but when hit by a big south swell from the best or close tho the degrees of direction it was epic double overhead steep thick swuare looking to ride. The barrel so thick breaking far out in front of the wave crashing into the water made the whitewash go big like an explosionIt is known as The Point and nicknamed California Pipeline The best barrel rides I have ever had from the multified atmospherein therespit out with a powerful spray .to here howlsof cheer and seee the big zoom lensed camerason tripods on the sand at the waters edgemade Cali Pipeline a perfecct nickname when it broke so good with bg barrels. Not to crowded most surfers who saw it breaking like this would not paddle out seeing it break for a valid reason it snappedalot of boards in half. You had to be in the right spot of course and paddle hard and fast pop up quick take of making some speed. No time for the big bottom turn I would not make it you get barreled fast and hope you make it . Getting thrown over thr falls there is rough like the wahing machine and hard to get air!

It was a small photo maybe captioned by Reno or someone and loosely the quote was "that's Owl at Ma'alaea and he's been drinking all morning". The photo was near identical to this videos conditions. It looked a beast of a freight train. Not often shown, this is amazing. Tena koe David Sunset Beach Aoteroa

Much respect to those warriors.
