Made out like they are climbing Everest at the back end of the season with the clock ticking and the project edging ever closer to failure. And then just at the last minute, mankind finally , finally does it. Slides. Along a piece of .. something.... in a wave pool. Utterly spellbinding achievement.. and I’m just as guilty cause I watched till the end.😖

Time was ticking 😂😂😂

So melodramatic. Did it really take that long to figure out the rail is going to move with each set

I'm more impressed that a pool can create waves like that rather than him grinding a silly box

In a wave pool - solid anchor, solid supports (snowboard style) wedge shaped bottom to take on the wave - it'd look gnarly at first being out of the water but with consistent waves it'd be in the same spot on the wave each time.

Why so serious.

A year of planning and this was the best anchor system they could come up with? Some high IQ's working on this lol. Wonder how much they spent on this project. Still a fan JW, but just sayin.

I'd design it with a remote control to constantly be able to move in the pool or the ocean with a water ballast on the bottom that fills up with water and makes it heavy enough so it won't be flying around as much when you find the sweet spot on the wave and should always right itself up if it flips over. That's how I'd do it if had the 💰

Patrick Fitzgerald oh really? Can you link me curious to see. Yeah I agree. It’s interesting tho but seems like especially in this case kind of a waste of money. A year in production?! On the other side I think it starts to build an interesting narrative towards the future of surfing and seeing where the sport can be taken. The rail def belongs more so in man made wave pool and we are looking at a hybrid of wakeboarding/ snowboarding with surfing. But at its heart surfing is a natural occurring thing. It’s a way of life. I believe we are starting to see the evolution of the sport tho

ham and cheese Iv seen him get spat out of 6ft plus barrels? I reckon your sister charges harder than you then?

been done before. pro dude got a whole team, a wavepool and a red bull budget and he lands one trick. wow. that is so cool. maybe invite a team of surfers so there is actual innovation. lol.

Awesome! Next can we do a wave at a wakeboard/cable park!

Maybe the next iteration, the bottom off the he rail needed a hull like a boat, streamlining when the wave goes under it, more likely to stay in position than just a flat bottom.

I couldn’t tell if he was skydiving without a parachute or just having some fun because of the seriousness

Also why is there “only 45 minutes left”? What is this deadline, besides extra drama for the video? 😂

This is so gimmicky lol. The fact that they’re playing it completely straight is hilarious

this is amazing

red bull was soo pumped when he said now im ready after a sip and then slapped it lmao

Already did this at our local with pvc pipe 25 years ago

This is Epic!

Yeeeeeooooowwwweeeeeee

That’s insane

I like the teamwork

Front board to fakie would be so crazy

You did this on my b-day!

That was more anticlimactic than when Geraldo opened Al Capones Vault.

everybody gangsta till the rail starts fighting back

Why catho? My good old home break.. That's random and cool to see it on here

this was ORIGINALLY DONE by JOE CRimo and Josh SLeight !! surf and skate !! Imagin how hard it was to acomplish on open waters down in Baja Mexico lots of fun !!

Game changing!

Muito top...

what does the bottom of his board look like after

Great content please keep it up and I'll keep watching.

love to see some Melbourne local punters take a swig of red bull and fly over that rail thingy and miss the head butt! nice job JW.

Pipe doesn’t need a rail to take your head off! Wave parks yes , ocean NO! Besides if it was possible JOB would’ve done it already...

Why didn’t Red Bull hire me for this. We have the capability to create a water surf park in a few month. With such a controlled environment this is very simple

Dam should make a wave pool that is equip with that already 🤩

Oh shit they they don't know what they just started!

it's all well and good if you're a pro and not to worry about dinging your board aye?

Lol, "it took over a year of production to set up" 5 second later, "it's basically a weighted bag connected to the rail"

What boards are those?

omgggg amazinggg

I'll be impressed when it's a double kink.

The best trick Surfer 🏄🌊🎥✌️🤙😎

🤙😎🤘

Heavy bottomed rail pulled by a jet ski against and incoming wave with a surfer on it- can slide the rail, the weight of it means it goes through the wave, and ideally ahead of the curl. Would take some practice to get the timing but the anchor thing does not seem to work, as shown here.

Please let's not do this again

progression

we didnt get the shot go again

👍👍👍👍

Imagine permanent structures cemented into the floor bed like rails, ramps, tubes, or whatever else you want though. If you want to get wacky, then let's get fucking wacky bro XD

wonder what the board looked like after

Precisa ter um peso à 90° e um outro peso lá atrás pra impedir que obstáculo seja levado pela onda.

Much respect and appreciation, but why we always braked something that already good ,i mean seriously HUMANS 🤙🏻

There's something so wrong about "ready for the next set guys" into a walkie talkie.

I’ve been saying this my entire life, but I never thought I’d say it about surfers... JIBBERS GONNA JIB

Looked fun til the head chop part tho on the 2nd attempt first wave almost got socked behind the head again.

fuck you'd think red bull would have experience with wake boarding and kite surfing who both use hard rails and boxes ..yes not in wave but you could have a hard rail in the sweet spot that doesn't Ove,thats a death trap...top effort to Geta line on it tho

if you brought any wakeskater he’d do this first try

Looks like theres a bit too much friction between the rail and the board

Problem is you need two lines on either side of the front of the rail

4:09

You have a pool that makes perfect waves but your rail tech is stuck in the 12th century for some reason. Ever seen a floating dock? Why is this so hard?

Awesome awesome very cool and thank you thank you thank you for sharing because it's very very very entertaining.

This is a Darwin award...

A year in the making? 😂

It’s all fun and games until someone gets hurt. To be honest I’d just solidly fix the rail and it’ll work. Too many variables otherwise.

First world firsts

I think surfers are just grasping at straws to be edgy and get the next big paycheck. This is a prime example. Although difficult and novelty. This will never be looked at as gnarly. Sorry bro. 6:00 was the best part tho lolol Much love for the grind of pro surfing tho. Just my opinion anyways.

Would've preferred to see Julian get pitted and just rip the shite out of that wave as it looked kinda nice..
