WOW 45s holy SMOKES
Glorious claim haha, love it. The keg at 2:55 is mental too. The butt drag on take-off probably got him deeper than otherwise, happy little accident. PLC always great to watch out there too.
Could be Von Rupp judging by the wetsuit and stickers on the board.
Stay high- stay dry(mostly)
The boogs were charging and showing some unusually crispy style sticking those bottom turns too!! Awesome to watch
It's an insane wave, isn't it. Not many places let you get that deep. (And I still can't bloody figure out where it is.)
Same spot, sooo deep:
That was SICK......
I've never bothered trying to find it but look up Pierre-Louis Costes videos (world champion BB from Portugal), quite a lot of footage from there, doubt he names it though. Helluva reform...
PLC is French.
Oops, couldn't be more French haha.
You will mate. Infact there are several places in NZ that share the same name..... if thats any help ;) .
Ps its not White Rock/Pedra thats just too obvious
When I first saw it years ago I thought it was Pedra Branca. The light and view from the cliff is very similar, but it doesn't hold anywhere near that size.
Not trying to find it in order to surf it - out of my league - just curious. And I did see those BB vids, but still no luck.
Haumaiteraki
Once I realised it wasn't PB, the first area I looked at was CC.
You can see the car park and a bar and toilets in the background of this vid. From there i found it on google maps.
:-)
I was going to joke that Von Rupp will be sure to reveal the location in his next vid, but then held back as I thought to sometimes refrain from negative stuff. But there ya go, he did it, 3 years ago haha.
:-)
How's the way it ledges up on that shelf and gives that perfect entry into a big pit.
Sick looking wave.
That’s a ridiculously perfect shaped big wave. Wonder how hard it would be to surf
Absolute piece of piss.......compared to Pipe
haha yes that's the one!
Gawd dang!! Watch the WSL get skunked.
