looks so FUN when peter mel and twiggy do it. they look all casual and happy like how we mere mortals are surfing 3-5 malibu on a glassy spring morning. i am scared to be on the beach in half moon bay when Mavs is breaking because the ground itself shakes. these folks are a different breed.
That left is the next level at Mavericks. Sitting here at my desktop, some of those faces look beautifully "impossible" to make. I'd imagine either this year or next, there will be a crew surfers charging it exclusively, if they aren't already. Someone will get the most mind blowing Death or Glory spit-out onto the shoulder, and the Mavericks crew will take it further than we ever thought possible. Unreal show to watch dudes (and dudettes...). Thanks for letting us peek in from the safety of our nice comfortable couches! 😎👍🤙🏄♂️✌
The average level of the surfers in that lineup is pretty insane, those drops are so steep ! Beautiful edit btw, perfect balance of transitions/raw content.
At this size I think I would try it....on second thought, I'll just watch on my laptop lol and go to Oceanside tomorrow and catch it at a gnarly 3 to 5 foot.
I Had some good headphones on when I came across this video. The parts without the music is pretty incredible. The sounds coming off the water ...these are my go to videos while I’m taking a dump. Fresh water surfing
This was a perfect sized swell and conditions to really give those lefts a go. Any bigger and those wide swinger wash throughs make it too sketchy to sit inside waiting for them. Stoked to see these guys charging it and props to the crazy guy shooting water shots....the edit was sick too.
Holy lurching lurcherness that wave is CRAZY! Would have loved to see someone trying to really backdoor that left, but I understand how hard that would be-and heavy... amazing stuff there gentlemen. Very nice work. Aloha from Hawaii. By the way, I was at Waimea Bay yesterday (not surfing), and I think this was heavier...!
It's such a weird wave, it's literally just a peak with a takeoff in deep water then peiters out, but then oddly the first wave that Peter Meil got was a long rideable wall all the way to the rocks..?
I want to see footage from today dudes. It looked epppiicccc!!! I swear a huge like 10 wave set just kept rolling through bombs as soon as I looked at the cam this morning!! 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙👍👍
From 1973 until 1982 I lived in Santa Cruz California. I didn't surf but I knew a lot of surfers + I'd manage a restaurant bar near the boardwalk called positively Front Street. if you live in Santa Cruz that long you know lots of surfers + positively Front Street was close to Lighthouse Point and Steamer Lane. back then I remember hearing talk of Mavericks as an insanely dangerous place nobody surfed. and as I learned many years later almost nobody did. It was evidently two guys that would go out and they are lucky to be alive because back in those days the break wasn't full a rescue boats and waverunners come to the rescue when you got pounded. Even with modern rescue it's insanely dangerous. The wave kicks up because the reef is shallow and people have died with their surfboards jammed between cracks in the reef and they couldn't free themselves in time or got knocked unconscious.
I have been reading and watching videos since the 90's about mavericks , I would never surf there its just way out of my league and co.fort zone but love watching it , but this video may have been the best I have ever seen , not the biggest or gnarliest waves I've seen there but it looked like the guys and maybe girls were having a great time out there , not so packed as it looked in the early 90's just super fun , I wish I had the skill to ride it , but at 53 it ain't happening 😀
Ahhhh amazing waves I always watch amazed riding the heavy waves with heavy music like Delta Parole or with relaxing music videos in background. If crazy like then always heavy tho
at least an authentic video whithout any silly music which shows us the terrific noise and awesome ocean's atmosphere ...so small men in front of the nature.! thanks a lot and luck to the braves
its the 6 dec. and theres santa anas in so cal valleys with snow on the peaks all the way down St. Martin baja and no rain on the plains or coast just weird, maverick well .... massive
Great video! Although I admit I get a little apprehensive when their path takes them in front of the Land Of The Lost Bolders, and I just hope nobody falls. These guys have Brass Balls!
@@lorettanericcio-bohlman567 Yup! Didn’t mean to miss anyone. Especially when I watched that Gal kill Nazarre! Don’t recall her name, but she spoke French very well, which I do not understand unfortunately! Yeah, she was awesome! Definitely a member of the club!
At 2:09 a surfer takes the left... does he need to worry about being in the wrong spot for the next wave? How does he get back out to the line up? Asking for a friend....
This might be a dumb question... but is this the same swell that was ripping up The north shore a few days ago? Some of the nicest angels I’ve seen of Mavs. Quality work bro. 👌🏼
It is crumbling instead of barreling at this wave height...The pocket is on the slope just ahead of the wash...You can’t make the barrel on the left because the wave energy ejects you too far ahead to make the turn...Some epic wipeouts getting crushed...
This is really great but at 9:35 it looks like that guy was being turned into a pretzel. I hope he survived. I have never surfed on a surfboard but I did do some body surfing many years ago visiting friends in Miami Beach but those waves were much smaller of course but I did have lots of fun and sometimes I did get sucked under for a few seconds when I miscalculated my timing. I will never forget hearing the energy or roar of the ocean when I first got to the beach.

I am not a surfer, but this is some of the most beautiful photograhy of the sport and the incredible beautiful ocean and the barrels I've seen.
The footage of real time without the music is mystical - l love hearing the crash of the waves and the poetry of the surfers slicing through...
You are right. It is much better without the music.
I luvah dah crash
THANK YOU FOR INCLUDING RAW FOOTAGE!!!!!! No stupid epic or punk music just the majestic sound of the ocean
I mean there was music but yeah i agree haha
20 years from now Peter Mel will still be surfing Mavericks, with his grandkids. Legend.
Yep, he's still crushing it!
Shout out to Grant W

3:16 That drop... Love this perspective from the left
That wave is big, fast, and savage.
Respect to anyone who tackles it on days like this.
.I really could use that cash
I've been stuck since I can't work or walk far

Its just so amazing! Real.men ride big waves! Woot Woot! Wow! Best video coverage ever! Thank you and God bless these men!
Thank you 🙏🏽

Beautiful edit btw, perfect balance of transitions/raw content.
this is how surfing videos should be - no boring slow motion and hearing the sound of the waves makes all the difference.
So killer seeing our friends living their dreams and sometimes nightmares. Keep rocking!
Great work! Love the fact that you kept the sound of the surf in and used he musi tastefully. 👍👍👍
Shout out to everyone who went left at Mavz
At this size I think I would try it....on second thought, I'll just watch on my laptop lol and go to Oceanside tomorrow and catch it at a gnarly 3 to 5 foot.
I thought the same thing until I paddled out at Torrey Pines today when it’s 10 feet
@@lewiscase4685 always wanted to try to surf there but I’ve heard it kinda just close outs. How was it?
@@xylophonenthusiast965 this morning it was literally amazing
Bucc does.
@@lewiscase4685 cool cool maybe I’ll go check that out then thanks for the info🤙
I couldn't tell you the first thing about how to surf but I enjoy watching it. Great footage!
Fantastic cinematography!!
Extremely well done video guys!!
My jaw is stuck to the floor... Just beautiful!
Loved that edit! So much good surfing out there today
Best Powerlines edit ever? Clean composition all round, so beautiful.
Looks fun! Respect. Be prepared and safe guys.
Wouawww !!! Quelles énormes vagues ??? Vraiment des athlètes ces gens- là !!! I like it +++++...! Thank you so much for this video ! 😯😎👍
Thanks brilliant , loved it, keep up the good work 👍
Beautiful work both by the surfers and "Powerlines". I grew up surfing HMB and nearby spots. I love the conditions when it gets like that!
Just beautiful and the skills to do this , amazing.
That’s some extraordinary surf & edit ! Congrats it’s brilliant
Thank you 🙏🏽
When Peter Mel surfs Mavericks like your average point break...
I'm so hooked on Mavericks now. Peter Mel is one of my fav surfers. Great footage as usual 😎👍
I Had some good headphones on when I came across this video. The parts without the music is pretty incredible. The sounds coming off the water ...these are my go to videos while I’m taking a dump. Fresh water surfing

What started out as a foggy day turned out to be gorgeous.

Very nice work. Aloha from Hawaii. By the way, I was at Waimea Bay yesterday (not surfing), and I think this was heavier...!
Unbelievably beautiful wave. And terrifying too.
Best channel on the youchoobs. psyched to see everything from yesterday
That was beautiful.......thanx.
Awesome, thx! In big surf, surface perspective photography is where it's at.
What a unique vantage point!!! Love it!!
Man that’s a beautiful thing to behold
It's such a weird wave, it's literally just a peak with a takeoff in deep water then peiters out, but then oddly the first wave that Peter Meil got was a long rideable wall all the way to the rocks..?
Yeah, I've never seen a wave ridden down to those rocks, pretty cool!
I feel like on certain swells with the right angle and period, the wave peels a little more
it was because it was high tide and the swell was still filling in
Nice video and great legend 🏄♂️
Felt like you were there. Great water shots.
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!
Thanks boys this awesome! 👏 🙌
They ride it so relaxed and casual....mind-blowing talent🤘👊
Relaxed and Casual isn't what I see. there's a freight train right behind them and they know it.
I want to see footage from today dudes. It looked epppiicccc!!! I swear a huge like 10 wave set just kept rolling through bombs as soon as I looked at the cam this morning!! 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙👍👍

Yeah age is a tough one. Thanks for the comment!
Quality! Thank you.
great edit!
Love the 60p footage so much, especially for Surfing its looks so much better
Pitchin’, grindin’, spittin’. Peak performance out there today!
Yeah, Luca! Good work, Powerlines!!!
⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️💥💥💥💥💥
I love the mavericks. Everybody should experience it once in there life. The power of the surf itself sound wise worth it alone.
Ahhhh amazing waves I always watch amazed riding the heavy waves with heavy music like Delta Parole or with relaxing music videos in background. If crazy like then always heavy tho
Loving these.....
at least an authentic video whithout any silly music which shows us the terrific noise and awesome ocean's atmosphere ...so small men in front of the nature.!
thanks a lot and luck to the braves
Pretty juicy waves.
Powerlines rules!!!
wave at 3:17 Hunter Murison. So fucking good surviving the drop with an A bomb going off behind him. Unreal.
its the 6 dec. and theres santa anas in so cal valleys with snow on the peaks all the way down St. Martin baja and no rain on the plains or coast just weird, maverick well .... massive
This was the first time I ever surfed Mavericks, I’m so happy it got documented in this way to show its true raw power🎯
I thought the music section suited the elegant majesty of the waves. Nice one!
Are those seals swimming through the waves around 830-9 minute mark?
crazy footage :)
Wow!!! Intense!!!
beautiful colors this day
Everyone going at it 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
You guys know how to have fun.
Damn that looks cold AF
It is
Great video! Although I admit I get a little apprehensive when their path takes them in front of the Land Of The Lost Bolders, and I just hope nobody falls. These guys have Brass Balls!
And some have iron ovaries

what's the water temp? what mil wetsuit are most using?
Nice footage 👏👌 Anyone knows whos's the guy with the yellow waterhousing shooting in the water? He must have some sick shots too 🤙
Awesome.
Badass. Anyone know the track playing in background? Groovy
Those are some 1970s opening credit Hawaii 5-0 waves. Power and beauty.
On the good note it seemed like a dribble to fade after breaking that way if someone wiped out it was a shorter struggle
At 2:09 a surfer takes the left... does he need to worry about being in the wrong spot for the next wave?
How does he get back out to the line up?
Asking for a friend....
the wave doesn't break to the left that far, he'll still be able to get back out with relative ease
Love the Vid but is there any chance of Posting the Music Titles, Love the Music.
WHy are so many guys wearing red? Is it about visibility, or is that just a certain make of vest?
interesting but no bigger than a big day at Waimea? or Sunset?
The sound of ocean waves.........is music
Making that hollow left at Mavericks on a big swell continues to be one of the few un-tapped treasures in surfing today.
awesome
7,40 to 8mn there is nothing more beautiful
Мне нравится этот спорт захватфватыывает молодцы удачи вам
Спасибо 🙏
Awesome !!! I wish one day I can Film you guys from my drone. but I am 7 hours away and need to plan in advance.
Epic. Songs used?
СЪемки просто суперские!
i still remember the 3rd of december when i wore a sweater.....have you seen Mavericks better?
Who is the tog in the water at 5:36?
This might be a dumb question... but is this the same swell that was ripping up The north shore a few days ago?
Some of the nicest angels I’ve seen of Mavs. Quality work bro. 👌🏼
yew
Yes. If you look at a map you can see north west swells come down from alaska and hit hawaii and then the west coast
Damn that old dude is cool af!
I saw 40ft today at Mavs , Tues Dec 8.....missed it damn...20ft + in pTown .
Nice ! Anyone know who's music was in the video (the new age stuff)

I think Peter Mel and Flea are the original members of Mavericks, but his son grew up to join Mavericks. I also have to realize that I am old
