On the weekend, while the World Title was being decided at Pipe, a small crew were tackling mid-range Jaws. On its own it wasn't terribly spectacular, but the mob at Xensr Technology paddled out with cameras capturing every angle. The result is some of the wildest footage yet seen of Peahi.

I'm not sure if it's the music, the wide open mouths or the background carnage, but it almost looks like fun.
And here's another glaring example of the downfalls of using a GoPro attached to the front of your board for surfing footage.
Looks like he's surfing 4ft waves, when it's 15ft!
It gives no indication or representation of size and looks average IMHO, even Kelly's videos from Pipe don't do it justice.
Yes, POV barrel stuff is epic with Go Pro's but anything else, forget about it.
yep agreed. its strange huh, need to have the option of getting rid of the fisheye lens to get that perspective of depth.
Can never reproduce the feeling of being there though!
Until he paddles over that set and you see his mate disappear down the face so he's just a spec bottom turning that 15ft monster! Seems to be the only size representation in the clip - you're right tho the rest barely looks overhead through the fisheye.
Old mate at 3:05 gets fucking bodied! Mind blowing stuff!
The guy gettin' pitched in the background.Woo Hoo.Don't worry about dude man dropping in.Obviously no love lost.All's fun in love and war.Will now have to rethink my complaining when wanker man drops in at 4-6ft.Ha ha ha
Pffft... These guys think they're fit? Bet they couldn't even get up to 14 in a beep test. Never seen any of these guys out bl**ks when it's 3ft. No idea... Hilarious stuff... Bet they don't even eat many eggs... Don't even know what's good for them
yep fairies the lot of em.....trained by kai borg biggest pussy on Oahu ......
