That Code Red Swell was going offfff. The Maui Boyz were Killing It!!! Unreal footage of some very talented surfers. INCREDIBLE PERIOD!!!!

Honest to God, I've never surfed or even watched surfing, but for some reason I've been watching all these Ma'alaea vids and it is a beautiful thing to watch and listen to everyone doing something so loved by all of the people there and how happy everyone is for each other when they catch it. It's pure joy, pure love. Thanks for making my heart swell today, a rare thing.

Can’t believe people are dropping in on others during a swell of this size

Some of the most riveting surfing i have ever watched. Incredible.

Loved Maui; surfed Black Rock everyday for our 2-hr. lunch. Check-out Ma'alaea frequently just to watch it rip on my way to Lahaina. Righteous job getting the frames & editing. Dig the crowd as well....

1:19 deepest barrel I’ve ever seen

I grew up remembering this wave, I think its been 40 years since I've seen it filmed, how great is it, incredible stuff.........

as waves grow ... rides lengthen ... crowd gets into it more & more ... very cool

insane!!when that wave comes to life its unreal!!!

That was impressive! I remember seeing videos of years ago that were just as good. That being said that has to be one of best swells to hit that part of the coast line.

Every year these guys seem to get better. Wow, I've never seen Freight Trains better. Beautiful footage, I almost feel like I'm there!

Amazing footage of top class action!!!!! Good work . Keepit coming

What perfect wave!!! Incredible!

Insane video! I spent hours just watching them yesterday but your vid provides a great close up! Today was a bit smaller it seemed but still pumping. Mahaloz!

Amazing video..smile would not leave my face the entire time. Thanks for posting, best surf video of the year, right HERE!

Jaw dropping, heart pounding! incredible waves, incredible surfing..thanks for posting.

Back in the 80s, none of these barrels were (as) makeable. Now with better, more refined equipment, plus better tube riding technique, guys can stay higher on the face and navigate through critical sections that used to clip guys years ago. Very impressive to see these guys sit so deep in the barrel at Ma'alaea and still come out. Wow 🙌

I was thinking the same thing except my surfing days started in the 70's The videos from those days rarely showed waves being made except by one man, something Hawk (Sam?). Great day out there today with fantastic surfing...aloha.

They where when I live there this was right in front of our condo We had a swell come 81 or 82 from earthquake in Mexico it was not quite this large I don’t think I was surfing KOs and Bruce’s in the flats I was only 1314 guys are killing it back then just as well with single friends and some twins I seen chemo Kaho tear it up I Lopez surfed the swell as well

Not true. I have a 7’6 single fin Lopez that my dad bought specifically because his friend Wayne Santos was making tons of deep barrels on that board on a huge day at maalaea. Trust me people were making waves like that and better in the 80’s too. It’s the surfer more than the equipment but you need decent equipment to make that wave.

Great video! Every wave is epic!

Killer vid Aaron, love the crowd noise!

Got emotional watching this...so epic.

Very impressive, you can really feel the emotion in the ambient. Nice vid.

Some of the best surf I’ve ever seen on video

That was awesome footage thank you!

What a vibe on the beach.

So sick! Finest pilots! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

I saw a homeless guy surfing on his mattress at Maalaea! Love the brown water of the harbor. Seriously though - these guys have nerves of steel.

wow tom dosland super burn

This actually might be the best ive ever seen freights get in my lifetime.

Amazing amazing amazing. Maybe the best swell ever at this spot. Can't wait to see the POV GoPro footage!!!

Thanks for crediting the surfers in the video. I've been watching different angles of this day and it's nice to know the names beyond Kai, Walshy, and Billy. Jackson Bunch -- supreme backhand barrel riding!!!

Wow good rides to remember thanks for the video

I surfed similar waves some 30 years ago that I remember fondly. But they were 4-5 feet with 4 sec barrels. Imagine these guys surfing these beasts!!!

This video had me screaming at the screen !! Wow !! Amazing spectacle of surfing those guys put on !! Eli Hannemans wave !! Wowowowo!!

such a wholesome video I love it

No music, just the sound of Stoke...Yeeeeeeeeeeeew

Holy smokes!!!!! That's fire.... unbelievable 🌊

Amazing place! 👍😎👍

This is freaking awesome!

Making that Wave look a lot easier than it really is 🤯👍👍 They can put this one down in the books for sure .. Scored a once in a lifetime session

🥳🤩🤯nice to see the Hawaii boys holdN it down 🤠👇🏽🦾

Great and long rides Almost like pipe on a good day in my opinion. Really nice rides by these guys. Bet they were loving it.

yes I remember the surf movies at high schools here in san diego in the 70"s.... and the mythical Ma'alaea.... so cool to see it go off.

OMG! Swell was angled perfectly for Freight Trains. Wow!

sweet footage .. south swells in kona were nice but topheavy .. but woah .. these waves are moving fast ..

Def the best ive evr seen

Can't wait for the gopro footage

Thank you Aaron!!!

That was insane to say the least.

Gives me goosebumps. I saw it like that back in 2003.

Great shooting aaron.

Wow!! Incredible. I guess there is only one place out of the wind on that beast Surely the spray means they’re paddling in blind as well. Just amazing.

Omg incredible!

Those boards are a triumph of irreducible complexity. Imagine the future.

Reminds me of j-bay, 4:46 Tom's wave, but MMB Mauimobettah. Yep 40 years easy since the last vision. Cheers Azah.

So sick!

What a RUSH That must be!

With all the power from north swells .. "da freight train yahhd" tops em all' cuz !!!

Watching from Canada & dreaming

Nice! Cheers bro

Absolute belter.

So rad to witness and get to surf. Dirty drop in at the end here... no bueno.

Like a cross between Kirra and Mundaka. Great surfing.

Fifty years ago, my HS classmate, Bill Trotter, had a long tube ride here that made the rounds on whatever platforms we had back then (i.e., nothing really!). These waves are twice as big as Bill's and way more gnarly! Gotta be the boards and the riders----a few lightyears difference!

I grew up with Bill Trotter and his younger brother Robert was my high school classmate and friend!!!! Cool bruddah! Yeah, this was one of those rare swell angles that slip into Maalaea and it was big lime 6'8 ft probably one of the best days ever. It's historical!! Aloha Don Libbey

Awesome.

Wave after wave 🌊 wow

SO SICK!!!

THANK U BOSS!

Gotta admit that Ma'alaea (aka Zippers) had me beat when I lived in Kihei in the late-60s. Not that I tried to surf it in waves like the ones in this amazing video. I wonder if Billy Kemper is any relation to my old friend, the great John Kemper?

I know nothing about surfing yet I know these guys are very good.

crazy heavy!

wow thats easily one of the best barrels ever.. not only staying open on exit bit getting wider on exit and allowing you to sit so comfortably deep. A long ride too. Reminds me of north point having a good moment. Notice how there is no spit after the barrel. Wave is moving too fast to spit!

Maui no ka oi! 🤙🏼

This has to be the best wave in Hawaii! Sorry Oahu! Absolutely beast!!

Good job

I watched a movie on PRIME recently, called SURF EVERY WAVE….the true story of Lars Hamilton…..it was breathtaking, and you couldn’t relax. Some of the waves were a hundred feet high…previously unsurfable , but he devoted his life to making improvements in equipment, and inventing some equipment. It was a fabulous movie. If you liked this, you’d LOVE the movie!

Sick 1s

Historic Day!

Kai was crazy deep on that second one.

Cant believe I missed this day
