- In the lead up to the Paris 2024 Olympic held at Teahupoo in Tahiti Molly Picklum spent some time getting to know the wave. On a swell in October 2023 Molly spent a few weeks in Teahupoo alongside Sierra Kerr and the crew getting to work. Early one morning before the crowd Moll;y hit the lineup early in hopes to get a wave that could change her life. Here is a short behind the scenes moment of what it's like to ride a famous wave at Teahupoo.

Started surfing in the 80s at 14 and made my best barrel when I was 42...you got time, enjoy the journey.
Stoked you're ok..surfing has such a dope and unique way of story telling ...its the people 🙌😎🙌
Dear Ms. Molly: You showed great heart to take off on such a monster wave ! This spot has maimed and killed - Beware the 'la thrill-seeka' motive.
Good on ya!
That was next level!
well good to see u still alive haha
For her to just go for that wave is absolutely awesome!!!
Gnar gnar. Be careful Molly. I’m rooting for ya, don’t break yourself before the big day.
mad respect....glad you didn't get hurt.
that is so heavy and terrifying. i am happy you are well and in tact after that, Molly. i am not a teahupoo expert, but that seemed too deep to me, regardless of pumps, how big or small, or otherwise. serious guts for charging that :) proud of you :)
Molly and three or four others have raised the bar for women's surfing in waves of consequence the last 2 years. Got the first 10 at pipe for the women's comp.Betty Lou, Caitlin and Molly absolutely charged decent pipe this year then went ballistic at Teahupoo.
" I thought I was pumping"...LOL
insane
Awesome Molly.. next time don’t fade. 🤙🏽❤️🏄🏽♀️
Good on you kiddo. Guts to go has been noted.
Yes, definitely give it some serious pumps....
Even sharks are too afraid to go into that lagoon. Big respect. Thank God you got outta there okay!
Stoked for you Molly , nasty and terrifying mack truck of a wave right there 🙌
Hard on your back hand glad your ok
Watching that wall form, I could tell she was just a bit too deep. Glad she didn't get hurt.
Just a bit. 🤏.
Molly has stepped up ladies tube riding to the next level. Got a big set of brass ones on that girl! F@#^$%* insane wave!
No shame in being crushed by that absolutely fearsome barrel - you did well, rode deep, got tubed, got crushed. 99% of surfers would NOT go.
Heavy
It's those big ones that you never really had a chance of making, but you charged anyway, that tell the truth.
They reveal the balls in a surfer's soul.
Not even a cannon could blow your balls, Molly.
Part 2 - Dear Ms. Molly: Be grateful nothing more serious happened. Am wishing you every success and fulfillment. May you be blessed. computer newbie
Only a bit down the line of making it out…NEXT TIME! Heavy like Puerto Escondido Mexico.
Current and future legend go get em molly
Towed 🤦🏼♂️
I know why? 🤷♂️
Now even girls are doing it! Expect 200 people out every swell just like Pipeline now. 🤦🏼
Wow 😂🎉
Charing🎉 yeeeewh
Tough. Heat 4 ahead,good luck Molly
It's ok to grab the rail in that situation. Once during the first drop and just before the spit hit you. Oh well next time. Nice ride anyway.
100% the stepoff wrecked it like Lennox said. She just had zero speed down the face. Couldn’t gain any speed. Surely just paddle, they won’t be doing stepoffs at the Olympics 🤙🏻😎
Pushing your surfing cheers. More guts than ft
Started out way too deep for chopes glad to see you're none the worst for wear
🙌🤙🤙
who is the young guy? is that Molly's little brother? He looks like her
3:07 😂💪🏻
Are these tow ins or what??
Stepoffs. You stepoff the side of the jetski and straight onto your board. It’s tricky to perfect/get used to. If you do it properly, you’ll be flying as soon as you hit the water. Clearly this is not a good example of how to do it. 🙏🏻
@lancejackson3618 Wow not seen that before. Seems to complicate an already difficult situation- though could add momentum if done right, I suppose. Hideous wipeouts though, I'd imagine with the added bonus of losing a jet ski as well!
Next time .
Fading at Teahupoo ?
Maybe not the best idea...
Dam
Didn't know you were sponsored by mortein

Molly was robbed at Olympics
