I’ve lived by the beach in California all my life and have always been intrigued by surfing but also scared at the same time. After watching this it convinced me to stick to snowboarding.
@@caseydolen1475 3:05 in the shoulder area you can see the strings to pull it. 1:49 when he comes out of the water the vest looks inflated. During a wipeout, surfers are usually hesitant to pull the vest as to not waste the cartridges but Kai seems to pull it riding the wave and I just want to know the reasoning behind it cause I've never saw a surfer do that before.
It is a float vest, but im sure kai knows wassup. Homeboy is on the cutting edge of this big wave shit right now. Watch his life of kai series. Homeslice gets trained by spec ops and shit lol
I wonder how dehydrated surfers gets from getting all that saltwater shoved into them from when they go underwater. I also think its funny how he just falls (meatballs?) into the water when the wave is too big to surf😂
yo kai your the men! your my inspiration to go surf I never been able to do it until now and my dream its to surf one day like you! much love from mexico
The POV shots are cool but you really should cut away [in the edit] to the long wide shots of the waves. When Kai paddles into a wave with the board POV, it looks like a 6 foot wave at my local break, not a 60 foot wave at Nazare or Mavericks. Just a thought.
So I'm assuming the wipeouts are cut short in editing right? Cause the wave literally just ate the camera then you pop up the other side, can't be right.
That video looks like head high. WTF? I have seen guys paddle into 20 foot plus at Mavs and it's def not 4-6 strokes. Another angle might be better Kai.
Try surfing without rescue. This is so over dramatized. The gopro on the end of the board perspective sucks. I surf 20' on the Big Island with no skis , just me and one other guy. I've scratched for the horizon being caught inside by a risIng unpredictable swell not knowing if I would make it or not. No inflation, no rescue. That's true adrenaline. I respect you Kai, but this for ching ching is hilarious Just surf.
Those 360s!!!! Also, the clip with the helicopter flying overhead as Kai goes down the wave has some major action film vibes
Legendary
8:10 The way he jumps back on his board is so clean
Jesus... the pure energy of the ocean... towering buildings of water.
@4:28 its like a giant hand and a face trying to grab kai. sick!
Holy shit you’re right
wtf
Awesome footage of huge waves .....
Dang dude you are right, this is just perfect
I love how Kai is still in a good mood after getting his a$$ kicked by a 40 foot wave at mavs
Because he’s young, full of juice, fearless, in his twenties and loaded with talent!
@@rickromano8654 no one asked why
@@rickromano8654 I remember those days...wish I had them back 56 now.
I know Im kinda randomly asking but do anybody know of a good website to stream newly released movies online ?
@@tracenathaniel4890 no
I think Kai enjoys getting thrown around by King Kong. Always comes out of it smiling and enjoying himself lol!
I’m not sure what’s more impressive, the way you surf or the beating you can take 😳
Extremely gritty! Poetry in motion! The way y’all dance with those waves! Beauty & the beast. 🙏🏼❤️🇨🇦

Best. Footage. EVER!!! The speed is insane!!! Crazy cool vid. :-)
05:21 ⚡
Man your a great surfer one of the best I've ever seen before
Nice 360 ans nice session👍👍🤙🤙🤙🏄♂️👏👏
Amazing. I have to paddle more for a 3 ft wave.
So awesome, that video made my day 🏄♂️😄
Insane! Would have loved to see another view of the tow rides, looked like 360 airs but hard to tell.
1:35 Pulled his vest before wiping out? Never saw that before
Idk if that’s even an inflation vest

Noticed that too, you can see him using the release valve after coming back up
It is a float vest, but im sure kai knows wassup. Homeboy is on the cutting edge of this big wave shit right now. Watch his life of kai series. Homeslice gets trained by spec ops and shit lol
@@James-ip5gz maybe he does it early because of the small risk of being knocked out when wiping out?
would be insane to see some footage with an over the shoulder mount kai
Amazing perspective. Geez you got some guts.
Why was homeboy at 0:28 on a shortboard at mavericks?
WTF - I Noticed That Too''
I wonder how dehydrated surfers gets from getting all that saltwater shoved into them from when they go underwater. I also think its funny how he just falls (meatballs?) into the water when the wave is too big to surf😂
Kai i saw you last winter at Peahi it was awesome keep up the great work
Jeez! Insane video love the bomb at the start too!
0:31 the pov was so cool in the wave😂
Awesome video Kai! Charging brah!
I know this wave is SUPER heavy, but the videos show effortless paddle ins and they don't seem that big. It's wild. Balls to the wall dude!
4.28 The hand that comes out and try's to grab Kai!
Good job. Try once to face the camera forward, so we can better see the drop height and line up. Thanks
Ledgend
1:35 biggest close out I’ve ever seen
0:37 holy crap that could’ve been horrible. That looked scary. Even from the go pros position
That first back 3 was so sick
Thanks for the ride along
yo kai your the men! your my inspiration to go surf I never been able to do it until now and my dream its to surf one day like you! much love from mexico
So gnarly! Does the GoPro on the nose mess with the weight and balance of those boards?
TOTALLY LOVIN IT! "Yea Killer Beaterz''
- Thanx
- 🤎🌊🌊🏄♂️🤪🌊🌊🙃
What a legend. 🤩
Really really good 🎉🎉🎉
Wauuu.... Q locazo q buenas tomas 🤙🏻
could you put the camera to get the same angle you see?
This is way cool point of view from the Gopro.
You make paddling and standing up so easy!
cold water, cloudy weather, huge waves, sharks... 😵
Good times.
5:28 That 360 was crazy 0_0
He’s still ripping 🤙🏽
Kai bottom turning into the 5 dimension legendary.
sick! cool footage
Sick waves cant hold my breath as long as you can
Great waves mate 100
coldie boys for sure.
So sick 👏👏
epic raw footage
5:28 proof he is a Jedi.

1:24 you can see a flying surfboard
Um.. was that a 360 on a tow in mavericks?
7:16 . . . I almost went to the fifth dimension bra!
GOAT
It's like fall into a big blender
Can you put your camera on front view ?
Is this the swell from day before yesterday? Or is this from earlier this winter?
I almost went to the 5th dimension says it all
rare chemtrail free day at mavs... do i see a littel tom curren in Kai's face? bumpy out there....
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Absolute Insanity!!
Ripping it!
super athlete
Absolutely shitting me pants!
Inspiration🙏🏼
Wow 😳
Two flat threes on a waves :O
Wappaaah!!
So I'm assuming the wipeouts are cut short in editing right? Cause the wave literally just ate the camera then you pop up the other side, can't be right.
He does have a vest tho
Epic
Is crazy how risky his take offs are
He just plays around on massive mavs waves and nazare waves
100 percent charger
Hardcore
nice m8
Dude, not worried about sharks?
We're in the 3rd dimension ....
While Kai reaches for the 5th dimension - 5:15 shred , two 360s .......Aquarius !🌊
What a life...
That video looks like head high. WTF? I have seen guys paddle into 20 foot plus at Mavs and it's def not 4-6 strokes. Another angle might be better Kai.
straight up firing but still a little choppy
🤯🤯
How much sea water an average surfer drinks in her/his Life.🙏
HELLO KAI :)
Do only the sponsored guys “help” from the skis?! Definitely illegal to tow surf Mavericks unless in a comp though
SJW party pooper
Rad
Yoooo
damn I wish I could do this!!! Fuckin amazing
who ever disliked this misclicked
POV is not the best angle imo
Bro encain
Old video
Never really surfed (meaning got up) - I could watch this s#@t all day
