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. To see more of Chris’ work check out his website. WWW.CHRISBRYANFILMS.COM

Anthony Molina says:

That was freaking Kool man!!

Maria Guzman says:

This is unimaginable! How tall are these waves?

Dan Salmonsen says:

Slow motion surfing is soooo boring

Steve Rubino says:

Doing this isnt something you just go out and try for fun. These guys that surf these kind of waves are pros or are really really good surfers. Even the average surfer shouldnt do this. These guys train for this stuff ! But i must say after body boarding my little 3/4 waves in Huntington Beach CA . This is insane because , I got tossed from those little waves. This would kill me ! lol

Mathieu Seguin says:

As I watch this video, I am reminded that I will never realize my boyhood dream of surfing. I have severe arthritis now, and my ankles and knees are weak.

For all of you that have that same wish, never wait for the oportunity to pass you by.
