There is a difference between this type of documentary footage and regular footage. Music is good in surf videos. The herd doesnt add music to surf videos. Surfers do
Thanks for putting out the raw footage!! I'm wondering who the other guy filming on the other ski is? I was the dude that dropped in (46:14- since they were asking) on the tow guy who was totally cool with it. I got one other wave this day and apparently I air dropped. I never thought I would be good enough to do it out there but some guy on a ski told me it was the sickest thing he'd ever seen. I thought I just had a bouncy take off and argued (hilariously) with the guy that I didn't but apparently there was so much adrenaline going thru me at that point that I really didn't realize what was happening. I wish they had that on film!!! DAMN! I was also the only guy to paddle out from the beach and would've never gotten out if it weren't for RCJ and Tazzy getting me on the inside at Backhand reef. I probably would've been dead if they didn't come back to me after dropping me off and a MASSIVE set came in just then. They flew back, told me to grab on, and we baaarely scratched over the lip at the last second! Although I've had crazy days of 15+ waves like the day after Scion died, this was the best day of my life period. I forgot about some of those I took on the head that day-haa! Get out there and get some!
Day 1 Flea...in the lip, over the falls...twice munted, third time makes it...legend...Mc Namara, two divine waves "snow boarding" drop ins on a toaster...mind blowing
I love listening to the waves that just abruptly crash down and and the spray bounces up almost as high as the wave was. some of the big waves roll over more than crash down and those ones don't seem to make as much noise. I mean clearly i'm not the only one loving those either as there's one guy in the video who says "oh my god" a couple of times one of those type appears. They look epic and i'm assuming they also feel epic.
Mavericks is a beast! It's the only wave I know that stands up straight and stays there like like a wall. I can't help to think of Mark Foo everytime I see Mavericks though...Awesome video!!!
The conditions, the skills, the courage - says it all - really good film - nice work. Great to learn of some of the lesser-known chargers. The segment with Flea - man, words can't capture the risk, drama he underwent. And of course, Peter's crisp commentary (and that WOTD).
I live in Florida, and I surfed back in the 70’s and early 80’s, and I cannot imagine 51 degree water temperature! I recall that on cold days, for instance air temperatures in the upper 30’s, low 40’s, we would just gather, build a fire, crack open the beers, and watch the ultimate diehards out there freezing, just to catch blown out 3-5’ waves! Nope, not a chance in hell! We weren’t that hungry for waves, to risk turning into a Pop-sickle!
Why are they fading before the second section then having to pull out because they are too far behind it? If they gunned it and took a high line they might be able to make the section.
It's easier said than done. Most likely there was a warble at the bottom that could've thrown them off and instead of them kicking out we'd see some wipeouts. Smart to play a little safe in large surf like that. The choice is go or kick out.
It's such a shame that these chargers don't get proper recognition! Such is life. And so they have to blow their own horn, (as in talk themselves up because the media / sponsors don't do it for them). I would absolutely worship these guys if they would just stop saying how fking amazing they are. Example: Pete Mel. if offended. Sorry. Just saying.
The guy at 20:45... was he new to tow surfing? Bith his falls seemed strange but that one made it seem like he wasn't used to tow surfing and having to conserve monentum Edit: 20:55 McNamara you lost count... he got eaten on the second one. He went over the falls with the lip on the first lol. Are you calling them the two waves of flea because he never actually surfed the first?
I can’t believe there is only 93 comments and can’t believe this is the first time I have ever seen this vid. So sick and heavy. Flea is the fucking man and so fucking cool. Some scary shit for sure it’s almost like a horror film where the victims kill the Psycho killer
At the last Mavericks contest, in January 2008, Virostko showed up late after staying up all night partying and doing meth, then took a couple of brutal falls. He failed to advance out of his preliminary heat. www.sfgate.com/outdoors/article/Darryl-Flea-Virostko-back-to-Mavericks-3281722.php
Thanks for the notes. Interesting you had anxiety, I guess that was the feel of the day. It was a super gnarly and very dangerous day. Thanks for tuning in! ✌️
Killer wave just kind of boring to watch my opinion. Pumping pipe badass to watch....Mavs and Nazaree not SO much. Fog probably didn’t help either. Flea seems like animal though! 🤙🏾🤙🏾
It almost spat him out through the back after going over. I thought he would get ragged for at least 30 seconds. Look at the wash line he is right at the start of it. That was divine intervention.
I have become a big wave surfing fan because I enjoy watching these big wave vids. Keep up the good work. I think I've watched all your vids today!!!! Kudos
Thank you so much for not following the herd and adding music to this. The only thing as good as watching these waves is hearing them as well.
its great
He is, the heard! Copied all kinds of, radar! JERK WEED- MAGIC SEAWEED!

Whoa, sick, that's great to know. You did very well 👍

I understand everything you wrote except 'munted' and 'toaster'
You know how Jamie O'brian is kind of fun to watch but he's also annoying as fuck with his personality...
This isn't that.
This is real as hell.

Undoubtedly one of the greatest surfing images ever.
Whoa that's really cool you said that, thanks!
@@PowerlinesProductions Welcome and Thank you, Man for all the very hard work that you have put in those videos !!
oh wow... been looking forward to this since you announced it but I didn't expect a whole HOUR...SICK!
Sick!
Mavericks is a beast! It's the only wave I know that stands up straight and stays there like like a wall. I can't help to think of Mark Foo everytime I see Mavericks though...Awesome video!!!
Thank you 🤙
dam and here i am thinking 15 footers are big lmao
Just a little reminder john john was 14/15 these days
I usually get bored watching Mavericks videos, Not this time ,, Well done
"He was in the lip bro." Legendary wipeout.
Was crazy to witness!!
Damn whose designing, a surfboard- Gaydom? He was, in Hawaii? = I'm gay-- or Japanese, for: surfboard!
pete that was the best wave ever
and ive watched this many a time

Awesome that you can see that in this video. Thank you for the comments 🤙
Why does Mavericks get such big waves? What is special about that particular coastline?
17.42 Hair raising.......beyond insane!
8:55 Angler fish? If someone knows what it is I would like to know.. One of the best surf videos of all time..
Best I've ever seen this spot. It's actually peeling some
Cold murky water, huge waves , and great white sharks. Yikes !😳
51 degrees is cold. That is my lowest limit. Well depending on how it looks.

tow in at mavricks is way easier than paddling down the face

Absolutely insane
Cold water, big sharks, massive balls.
✅
We get even bigger and better waves here in Sligo,Ireland.....world famous,with many European championships held here

Flea is amazing. Superman.
Ya , One of a kind 👍

Нет музыки прекрасно. А шум волны завораживает. Мечтаю именно по середине океана быть как вы, в этом высоком ❤
Thanks for sharing! Some of the best waves I've seen from Mavericks on video. If. It the best. That was awesome. Condor SOARING! And Mac's barrel
Amazing that guys used to paddle out and surf this. No boat rides to the break, no PWCs for rescue
SF ob I'm know doc Renniker, Noriega: Craig Townsend sere Maverick, in December OBSF. Brave souls ❤️
Pete Mel @ 11:53 HOLY CRAP
Eric, I like that red skull and crossbones motif. Add that to your T-shirts. They'll sell like hotcakes.
epic
12:05 Peter Mel OH MY GOODNESS
Str8 Hammer
It's pretty scary when the waves are big and you can't see the sets from the fog!
Dan malloy rips
Shredding
I couldn't agree more. Powerlines - thank you so much for letting us hear!!!
55 ft Backwards.... Wow.
i'm proud to have used one board of flea a rusty 5'11 make my surf so much better ^^
Wow♥️♥️♥️
Respect
Extreme.
GNARLY !!!!!
i love thisssss W/SSSSSS
The roar of the waves when they break across the Mavericks reef....
What a spot!...
Very cautious but who would want to get racked by one of those set waves.
"....Oh!...he made it.......Oh, he did make it!.....Ohhh!....he did make it...!....". (22:06)
Flea's a badass
Thank you ❤❤❤
Check Garret's barrel at 37:56!
John Johns still a grom in this!
huge
Great work with this video!
Thanks for this.
just out of curiosity, if youre hit by 05:07 ... do you just die?
Sick edit watched the entire thing. Filled with anxiety the entire time
Thanks for the notes. Interesting you had anxiety, I guess that was the feel of the day. It was a super gnarly and very dangerous day. Thanks for tuning in! ✌️
Powerlines Productions anxiety as in it felt like I was there. Super gnarly
@@teddyknobel6087 Ya, got it. You felt it! Thanks again for tuning in 🤙
Twiggy Baker you legend!!
The sea was cold and gray that day, boys.
Mavs do or don't peelings.
30 feet at 20 seconds! WTF.
Killer wave just kind of boring to watch my opinion. Pumping pipe badass to watch....Mavs and Nazaree not SO much. Fog probably didn’t help either. Flea seems like animal though! 🤙🏾🤙🏾
That's cool. Mostly this is put up for the surfers to see how they did and to learn from. It's cool that you watched and gave 2 cents. ✌️Thank you 🙏
Looks like fun! HA
RIP BROWNIE!!
Yo Flea's wipeout at 15:50 was so gnarly it made that one dude completely rediscover what going over the falls is, at 17:00
It almost spat him out through the back after going over. I thought he would get ragged for at least 30 seconds. Look at the wash line he is right at the start of it. That was divine intervention.
@@WillPage nah, just divine. The ou gets to surf Mavericks, I rate he's got all the Gods on his side!
Maybe 23 really
Such an overhyped shit wave.
Say that from your stomach on a board in the bowl. Mavericks is one of the most respected waves by any advanced surfer in the world.
30’@ 20 seconds
awesome vid
16:00
Lol
I have become a big wave surfing fan because I enjoy watching these big wave vids. Keep up the good work. I think I've watched all your vids today!!!! Kudos
That's awesome, thanks for tuning in 🤙
California surfers have the most irritating voices... "Dude, gnarly! Gnarly dude! Darly gnude!"
hahahaha It was Gnarly AF Dude!
@@PowerlinesProductions Great filming and editing though, I love your work!!!
@@intelligenceinathought2461 Thank you for staying tuned! More on the way including 4K and then more after that! ✌️
Didn't you see "Fast Times at Ridgemont High"? Sean Penn nailed it. That's how California surfers talk. Like it or not.
Not all California surfers talk like that, and gnarly is a term all surfers use.
at 7:13 something appears in the water, what is it ???
A seal?
I saw a few birds around as well
I live in hmb
