That last wave is without a doubt the widest, deepest, and most beautiful Shippies wave ever paddled! The amount of fortitude it takes to launch over a ledge like that and engage the rail immediately after air dropping, then step down another ledge. I don't understand how you can negotiate so many variables perfectly with such consequences.
When the video started off with Alan Watts, I was hooked. Fabulous camerawork and editing. And of course bloody phenomenal surfing, those waves were heavy!!! 10/10 video
When in the flow it is if everything slows down ,the surfing becomes almost an act of the subconcience. The word that best fits this video and describes what makes it not only a powerful documentary but a very rare type of Art is the word " Vicarious " the word means to exsperience in the mind what another is experiencing in the past or present in reality. That the video and surfer has achieved. Really world class performance and camera work . Thank you.
Holy crap! That last wave! Did you see the drop he has to make first and then he's in what has to be tone of he most cavernous barrels I've ever seen. And he's not being towed in. It's just unbelievable.
Crazy take off’s on that left bombie. It looks like the day I surfed another bombie just up the coast and nearly drowned. I couldn’t quite get my toes on my board.
can someone explain to me how russ is on his backhand at 10:25, a right hander as well as at the slab, a left hander? I know the slab so its not been flipped, or have they flipped the 10:25 wave?
epic epic clip, so rad! If you liked this check out Russel Bierke's "Bezerke" its just as gnarly, wonder who the 6 jealous bastards were that disliked the clip

The job the photographer did on that last wave was ridiculously good too.
This is my favourite surf movie of the year. Russell is an absolute weapon and the editing/music is spot on. Well played
agreed

australian of the year -the decade. Can't thank you enough Russell. Made my year to see that incredible bravery.
Bow down to the night king! What a bloody hero. That was unbelievable!
A living breathing gonad man 🤟
Last wave was unreal! 13:37
Amazing.
This guy is an alien!
That drop at 6:35. I mean...damn. The kid is spectacular. Terrific vid.
Best surf edit 2019
One of the best surf films I have ever seen. Massive respect
That last wave was freakin mental. next level. He entered flow state, no mind just subconscious
6:26 Amazing drop ... backside, tail barely holding, back foot almost slipping off.... but he makes it.
Wow great edit, different music, good story, compared to your average surf rock music video. Well done.
Yeah totally. This was a joy to watch.
I don’t really need to watch interviews, people putting on wetties, waxing boards etc. but everyone’s different
@@grupil Fine, then watch the next video along the line on UA-cam, but please dont be a troll.
The last one was the wave of his life...can't beat that
Anytime I want to get psyched I come and watch this, just clocked in probably my 30th replay🤣🍻
Epic cinematography! Russ is a Hellman 😉👍🏄🏻
That was amazing next-level charging.
Heavy wave, heavy surfing and what about those swimming out there capturing all that! Much respect.
Russell bierke is an absolute maniac. So much respect.
Un fricken real. And kudos to those madmen bobbing around inside with nothing but a camera and a pair of fins. Big ups all round! 🔥
Whoaaa Holy Moly that was CRAZY!! Amazing!!

Man... My respects, if that mean anyting... That was the most impressive thing ive ever seen
THIS IS SO ANOTHER LEVEL....
Loved the Alan Watts start, awesome vid & insane waves!
the last wave made me cry
Umm..why isn't any these considered "Wave of The Winter?" Pipe is heavy but not like these cold water beasts!!
Wave of the Winter has to be on the North Shore of Oahu
OMG , I CANT BELIEVE I JUST WATCHED THIS
Amazing. Unreal waves and skills. Found myself watching the take-offs as much as the line. Impressive.
Unreal surfing, great cinematography and cool soundtrack. Thanks!
What a legend!
There's definitely some big things coming for Russ and he ain't one bit fussed to take them on
👊👌🙏
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍vid of the year .
Amazing crazy freefall drops. Insane
get home from work. fucket ill watch flow state for the 4th time. then rewind the shippies section again. epic!
Absolute sick edit guys. Russ reminds me a lot of Loz Towner. Very humble, relaxed in skitz waves and charges like a fukn animal.
Wow, Russell is so young, but already a legend...Legendary video = Salute and RESPECT to you Russell! Oneill are lucky to have you on their team...
1:50 absolute fearless, what a animal!

That last wave was Epic, free fall drop into the pit, kid is awesome.
Amazing video!!
As a kid living on the beach in Oxnard Ca. in the 70’s, I remember O’Niell’s giant Catamaran docked at Channel Islands Harbor
I was shitting myself watching from the couch!

How is this guy not an Australian Cult Legend?
Keep going berko

They didn't flip it, its a perfect A frame, he just gets barrel switch better than me! hahahaha
Could be just messing about riding switch foot in small waves. Kelly Slater is pretty good at it ua-cam.com/video/QsbGWY705kU/v-deo.html
