How BIG are these WAVES?! (Raw Hawaiian Swell)
Koa Smith gives you a cinematic wave-check tour of the North Shore during the biggest swell of the year. The raw ocean energy was so powerful, bringing spectators and tourists from around the island to watch in awe as the huge waves exploded against the coastline. After flying his drone and witnessing the intensity of Pipeline, Sharks Cove and Keiki, Koa heads to Waimea with his brothers, Alex and Travis, to ride giant waves. #surf #tourism #hawaii

Yes please. When I lived on Oahu and went to the North Shore, I remember the sound and could feel the pull of the waves just standing on the beach, not in the water. Respect

1:43 Wow the lifeguard. This guy is a warrior. It is insane
First off, I would freaking love it if we had a “reality TV show” of the Smith Brothers!! Secondly, when the older lady asked, “have you seen waves this big” and he shrugs it off and says “maybe”. Bruh, you surf these waves! Humble. Mad respect.

I've stood on the edge of a 75 foot cliff on the big island and gotten drenched from the waves crashing below. The ocean is a different beast out there in the middle of the ocean. I love Hawaii, went several times when I lived in California. They have some great hiking there.
Koa, you're such a natural dude. Love this channel.

When I looked back over my shoulder leaving Pipeline walking between two houses 20ft shore breakers was the best memory I have of Hawaii
I'm like a middle age girl in Colorado and I freaking love the content from you and your brothers!! You guys are cool, nice and informative. And your channel helps maintain some much-needed chill in my life. Thanks for sharing your experiences
I was blessed to see a pretty good swell when my wife and I stayed on the north shore a few years ago. Nothing else like it.
This is where the Pipeline Masters are held! Thanks Blue Crush! 🌊🌊🌊🏆🏄🏾♀🏄🏼
Mother Nature's power is incredible. I still can't believe people surf this stuff.
Used to go to Haleiwa in the 60’s before surfing was a big thing, and when traffic wasn’t bad like today.

It's terrible. Traffic is backed up from Haleiwa all the way through and past the Bay. I think it was Sunny one time couldn't get through for his heat and some braddah came by with a motorcycle and got him there on time.
Brah!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE your videos! Just left North Shore 5wks ago but it feels like a lifetime. Old men like me (52) unfortunately can’t surf anymore so we have to live Vicariously Through young studs like yourself. “What you are now, I once was! What I am now, you shall become..” :-) ALOHA
This is so cool!! Thank you guys for showing us these amazing waves!!
Respect for anyone riding those waves. Watching this gives me the same feeling of having too much caffeine. Love the footage 🤙
