Hey guys, does the video quality look good on your end? If it isn’t I’ll re-upload it
Epic video! Thanks
Just a phenomenal edit and amazing footage.
Inspiration for those of use who, for one reason or another, may not get anywhere up close and personal with such a great wave. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing. It gives us an idea of of how great an honor to be involved in such a magical event.
Great music in the video
brilliant surfing, commentary. crap music, go camera on board
Wow, incredible edit of this special event, especially at the end with the jet skis like little ants scattering away, the power of the ocean!
Excellent video and musical choices!
Awesome Kai and wave warriors you all are…much respect for your graciousness…Mahalo from the uk
Epic video – thanks Kai. And what an event…
tolle Big Wave Action, super Bedingungen, da wird man direkt neidisch 🤩🤙
Let me get this right … The Eddie surf made you nervous … but you just hot dogged Jaws the next day. Thanks for sharing great shots! No one can tell me Eddie was not there …. it was all just so perfect … no place like Waimea where Eddie lives on
Great video of the Eddie. Thanks for showing all of Lukes waves.
EDDIE WOULD GO! LEGENDS!
satan has richly blessed you kai.
Thank you for sharing this with us.
What is the name of the band of the second song? Anybody know?
This was intensely heroic by all, watching with the soundtrack up is phenomenal. Thanks Kai again for uploading 🤟
Fantastic video with fantastic music. I loved the surfing and drone shots of the waves.
Fantastic episode Kai thanks 🙏
Such an epic video! The commentary, music, inclusion of so many, & of course your surfing! Love the switch!!
That Pearl Jam tune added to the great vibe felt in this video! I loved it!
Way to go Everyone!
What a great edit!! My favorite of all I've seen of the Eddie. Captured the feeling and the courage.
What a great video!
Kai & your entire team, that was incredible! Watching the live stream, when you came blasting through the spray & foam of your 1st or 2nd wave, it was SO exhilarating & inspiring. You're exceptional Kai, keep being amazing. Excellent production & tight editing. That massive closeout at the end & those HWP drivers, were breathtaking. RIP Larry Haynes.
GREAT to hear Pearl Jam on a surfing video again…AWESOME.
Not to mention METALLICA!!!
