I'm taking a surf lesson today. Next weekend I'll be dropping in at pipe cowabunga kooks

Those second reef chip ins are yuuuge. Dear lord. With all those people I’d lose it. Pure chaos plus maxing size, not for me. These guys are nuts.

A great classical pianist Horowitz quote comes to mind here. The interviewer commented "You make it look easy". Horowitz responded after playing a 2 hour perfect concert on the piano, "It is easy". These surfers make it look easy and I bet they'd say the same.

Some of those guys out obviously get whichever wave they look at (JJF, Kelly, anyone with the last name Ho, etc) but the rest of em I’m genuinely curious as to why they even bother paddling out. Pipe’s a great wave, I totally get that. But it’s also been whored into absolute oblivion by the surf industry and the 9000 or so Vlogs on KZread that center around it. Which means they’ll be 100+ guys out anytime it breaks for the rest of the worlds existence. So again, why the Hell bother (unless you’re a juiced-in heavy or pro)? I’ve heard names like Nathen Florence talking about sometimes waiting hours for a wave when it’s firing and at peak absurdity- where’s that leave the rest of the 98% regular type folks that fill the lineup? Seems like it’s about lottery odds of catching a decent wave. Much greater odds though of catching a rouge board to the face due to all the congestion or, worse yet, getting a crack or two on the beach from uncle Eddie and the boys for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. TLDR: Other surfable waves DO exist.

Media has killed so many epic breaks, fishing and hunting holes? All in the name of money. Love Mason and JOB but sponsors pay for exposure and they expose all for Red Bull money etc...

Line up reminds me of pictures I've seen of people in line waiting to summit Everest

That lineup is insane!

Drones Fighting for a Spot on the Wave Also

It appears to me a shit ton of guys paddle out, and paddle in and tell their mates they surfed Pipe, yet didn’t get a wave and just got in the way.

My thoughts, exactly. I saw what appeared to be a dozen plus kooks digging half heartedly for several of the biggest waves then backing out at the last second, with one guy in the most critical section dropping in and eating it. All because the kooks to his left were a potential danger and forced him to hesitate.

So awesome!! Thanks so much for sharing… :-)

Great video. Looks like a busy spot.

Thx fren. Excellent footage.

Clean waves, varied selection.

What a sick Sesh!!!!!❤❤❤❤

Awesomeness 🔥🔥🔥🔥🤙🌊🌊

Greattt Raw! I saw the report that would be epic and i was wonder to see that in the video! Thx for this

Looks like good fun....

Negotiating that crowd is just crazy. I think the locals need to enforce some territorial rules, and by that I mean threats of physical violence followed by actual violence.

Thanks Elmo for identifying the problem with surfing: localism.

Amazing photography and edit! Best I’ve seen in a long time. Cheers!

Beautiful angle

thank for not putting annoying music

great camera angle!

You can see the cold moon percentage was high in these waves. Pretty wicked🌊🌜

ive been there in 1980 july 5.. after a yr liveing on midway atoll..

100 guys in the water, at least five of them are boogie boarders, 20 drones in the air, this would be a good day in California.

theres hangers at every break in the world. Pipes no different

so many dudes... guy in pink must be a local

... As crowded as it is, it seems fairly orderly - obviously (almost) everyone out there knows what they're doing. Only takes a few Kooks to throw a fly in the ointment. Hell, even the spongers had a couple really good Ones !!

We sent guy from Japan who name is real ito👍

Secret spot.

That registers a 0 on the fun meter.

Did any drones crash that day? I counted 5 all at once

What a nightmare it's become

Jeez, how's the drone traffic... That'd be more obnoxious than the crowd 🚁

Kook town logjam.

2011?

Probably a handful of people catching waves. Most of the others would be better off taking up golf.

9:47 it had an exit! i'm just saying. -- 8:15 big one! Also had an exit possible. -- 8:28 just crank that turn. The only way to get it done. Crowded out there.

I agree with bill burr, the pandemic didn't think out the heard enough. That is a ridiculous amount of people, and it's hard to dog anyone for wanting to surf, I get it, it's a lot of fun.

Them bugs (drones) in the air getting all salt sprayed, I wonder if they have to wipe them down or rinsed. Aren't drones not supposed to get wet?

2:50 4:22 The amount of Surfers concentrated in a small area for a fast moving, hard hitting wave is dangerous. You could make a slow motion video on this alone. Watching Surfers trying to paddle for or avoid the wave.

how many guys are getting sucked in trying to ride it to the top of the breaking waves?

Wipeout, traffic jam, tubularville

A RAINHA DAS ONDAS!

wait until over populating comes

every time someone snakes at pipe, it should be points lost. they only get so many points. Once you hit your quota, you're out.

Reminds me of a kook fest.

Incredible stuff,, everyone has a go... you need a beat up 65 mercury 390 woody wagon to top it off. Steve in Australia

Some insane barrels, with gnarly wipeouts. Hellish crowds. Also, isn’t almost every cutback at pipe futile?

I’ve gotta say it looks horrible out there crowds out of control and pipe just looks nasty

Drone wars jesus! Going to need a traffic control tower at pipe soon...

I love sufer's -- too bad they can't chalange the Government! Just a waste of talented and human life. Do these surfers know what is going on in the World? Wasted human life -- imo!

And how many people are actually riding waves with more kooks in the lineup out their saying when they came in to their friends. HEY MAN, YOU SEE MY AWESOME TUBE RIDE? PLEASE. KOOKDOMVILLE.
