i remember the fisrt time coming out the water and say that was the best wave ive ever had,,, iwas on a high for about 3 days off that one wave,,, beautiful
moved away from surf for my child 12 years ago. this was very moving to watch and hear every ones perspective. especially from legends I looked up to for a decade. so funny how Kelly didn't even think he would make it. he really has balance like a falling cat, just amazing.
Kelly is a great ambassador for surfing. Like all the great ones before him he holds up a standard second to none. We are blessed to have this gentleman represent us in our sport of kings.
This is a very well done video. Having been to three Triple Crown competitions you really get an idea of how difficult this is. Surfed 35 years and still feel like a beginner at the North Shore, totally humbling "The Proving Grounds" Excellent work
Now this is just a theory of mine but are the recent increase in shark attacks & encounters actually staged ? Are they setting the stage to Unleash the Beast, a 50 ft Great White Shark created by scientists by splicing in the Nephilim Giantism gene into a Great White Shark embryo ? If they are going to do it wouldn't the Bi11abong Pipeline slave Masters be the perfect setting since it is Ke11y Slater's final event as a pro. This year's Pipeline Masters is scheduled for Dec 8-20th, Dec 13th is a Friday ! Jason "Fri The 13th" Statham recently starred in the Megalodon movie titled THE MEG, will life imitate art ? I doubt it but it's fun to speculate. If it happens it sure would give meaning to the Bible verse "Woe to earth & sea" Up from the deep Meg's teeth did gleam seemed he was thinking about just one thing he opened his jaws & shook his dorsal & said, I think I'll have a bite sized morsel .
@Will K Shilling , Japan is famous for Monster movies. Will they unleash the man made Megalodon Beast at the Summer Olympics surfing competition ? Ke11y definitely channels the supernatural
I really do envy all surfers, you make it looks so easy and graceful. I'll stick to the bodyboard if I get the chance to get to the beach once in a blue moon.
waves look fun, such skills they make it look easy. You have to remain calm and connected to the rhythm of the ocean. Takes allot of time to understand how it breaks. Much respect. The ocean is Beautiful. The crowds ehh
Parts of this video shows how awesome the North Shore is. The sun is out, the weather is in the low 80's, the water is sparkling, the swell is big, the winds are perfect, the beaches are easy to access, there's a store a few miles away for food. What we don't see is that these perfect conditions may only last for a few hours, a few times a month. The video leads a person to believe the conditions are perfect all the time.
+milkmandan77. I'm looking for a past record of swell conditions at Pipeline if anyone knows a link. Sunset Beach breaks much more frequently, but Pipeline takes precise conditions for a clean rideable tube wave. Winter swells are over for this winter, but you can still look at the Pipeline Beach Cam here: thesurfersview.com/live-beach-cams/hawaii/pipeline-webcam-and-surf-report
+milkmandan77. Keep in mind, were talking about clean Pipeline, not perfect, not too windy or onshore, not too bumpy, not wrong swell direction, but clean Pipeline. Do you know of any websites that list the past conditions at Pipeline?
Lopez is and always will be the pipe master. There might be more dramatic and dynamic surfers but he will always be the style master people aspire to. Never stop surfing, we have legends to make proud.
great vid, nice pro explanation of break and swells for the mainland visitor (spectator). allows us to better understand the crowd/wave/break dynamics.
Broke my knee on the bottom at Pipe in 1973. board surfing.And I have bodysurfed Pipe a lot. Have gotten caught on the inside a few times where it looked so critical, I considered swimming down into those crevasses. But it was too spooky. I always chose getting thrashed as opposed to being in those holes with major turbulence in there.
Obviously you guys are our heroes, and you deserve recognition for your skills, and bravery. I wish someone would just make a video of just people surfing big waves without all the self promotion, and interviews. It's been done to death. I already own (Stepping into the liquid) etc. We love, and respect you all, but sometimes those of us who are beyond our big wave years, need some spiritual enrichment. Let us, "in our decrepitness" view the oceans power before our ashes are finally scattered in Waimea bay soon, for the last time. "What'ya" say?
You need to get your ass to Ireland so. They reckon the biggest wave will be there and like you said there are only 5-7 people on it. Aileen is one of those waves if you're interested...
Get a Noll Rider, foam, single stringer. Flat spatula nose. You do not make a drop and turn. Your first turn on take off takes you radical high, rack edge up, at near the first crest. Then staying high on the face, the tube forms around you quietly.
True, Sean. However, even longer barrels can be Close Out no matter what you do unless you stay farther off from first center peak at take off. My comment, though, relates to my own experience. I have surfed plenty of North Atlantic, All-Sand-Bottom, Big quiet Roundy, storm surf pipes. I have never surfed Reef and Rock bottoms; even though your comment makes the fact of their steep walls evident. All-Sand-Bottom big stuff are real Round, with flatter floors inside the Tube. My best, longest, deepest inside the Tubes rides resulted from: first turn immediately at the top edge of the peak line; and do not do a Drop and Turn. If you observe Greg Nolls' action, many of his rides, even on big walls, was the high up lateral line: until the Pipe forms around you. I notice about the Reef and Rock monsters that they are not as round as All-Sand-Bottom tubes; and they are more diagonal Frong-Overs, with steeper, downhill racer bottoms inside the Pipe. All-Sand-Bottom Big Roundy storm size Pipes are very different; and it's totally quiet inside the Tubes. It's something that nobody really knows. Then , you get the easy silence-sight. The breathing space. The life. Even walking the woods. ~ ~ ~ The main thing is, we do it to Develop Knowledge .
Hindu Bodhcong Pala dirtbags rule on the crags, try climbing a 5.10 multi pitch slab route, where you have to dyno to micro crimps, where your forearms become so pumped you feel as if you are going to pitch, then come talk to me. th-cam.com/video/Phl82D57P58/w-d-xo.html
Before I paddle out I watch some of kelly slaters surfing and i go with his style since I'm a regular foot too! There is nobody better to watch to get better than the"man".
28:00 Change the rules so one person can win only one prize per year so another person can win also. Share the money with others. Kelly doesn't need the money, he's wealthy. For the wave of the winter, unless it's obvious, take the top 5-10 waves and divide the money among the others. They could all probably use it.
That defeats trying your hand at perfection, hard work, and the biggest fact is that average Joe can take that check as e easily as a pro. You already got Obama healthcare and that should make some sense. He's already paying for your healthcare and he can't help the love of surfing...
+Aint1S. The people who win the Wave of the Winter are not average Joes. They are hard charging risk takers who have probably been surfing for 10-20 years.
+SanFranciscoBay that defeats the objectiveness, as soon as you bring in the well this guy already won something other stuff like who really deserves it comes into play, the Idea is to better define the parameters of the perfect ride. without bias.
Dang when I use to surf North short in the 70s on big days there was 10 to 15 guys out and we though it was crowded. Things have changed big time. I lived in Foster Village 30 years.
Began watching the video and seeing the first wave triggered a feeling of disappointment. I know why, i landed here directly from a couple of hours binging solely on surfing videos from Nazare, Portugal. So the waves in this video appeared not just small, but tiny....5 minutes in and still the waves appeared tiny & i couldn't shake feeling disappointed. Looked to me too small for a surfer to stand up in and yet surfers were standing up.......confused i looked closer... ...at some point i was drawn in....cos' i sit here now open-mouthed, absolutely spellbound & awestuck by the magic of seeing some of the most amazing surfing i have ever witnessed. Feeling kinda transcendental.
At 9:29 he starts talking about "the boil". I couldn't quite understand what and where it is... English is not my native language and I may have missed some words and meanings. Is it the spray at the end of the wave? It didn't sound like it... Can someone help explain it to me?
Hi, the boil is an area where the wave breaks at Pipeline where the reef is so shallow that the water when it is being sucked up the face of the wave is distorted and makes a roundish rough area. It's a bit like a ring of white water that is very rough and if you surf over it you can catch a rail or nose dive.
aloha,i live in australia,we have some pretty great surf comps here,proud 2 b a aissie,living the life bros....looking up,but seeing down,,,good fun...lmao...xxx skye-maree warne
Amazing waves by the regulars a la Slater, JJF, JOB, etc. However one of the best that could have easily won it is the "unknown" guy with European accent that Pancho really liked at 21.00. To commit/charge that big one backside and to come out way longer after the spit than any of the others...backside yet could have won it! Love to see an "unknown" charger get a wave like that! Who is that guy!!??
Just curious. I know the quality and number of waves on the N shore changes year to year but how many days out of a year are there overhead quality waves?When I was younger I always thought Hawaii was 24/7 big waves. I have flown to Cali many times over the last 30 yrs and when I had time visited some of the known surf spots it was always flat or very small. Before I get to old I would like to visit the N shore and see some real monsters.
JIMJAMSC. The big months on the North Shore are typically Winter, November - February. Frequency and quality of waves vary from year to year. The wind from storms, hundreds to thousands of miles away create the waves that hit the North Shore.
I don’t surf, but I love watching so I’m pretty uneducated and these questions may sound really daft to you, sorry!How do you avoid the crowds of people in the water? Why are they allowed to be there and who are they?
Can somebody clear this up for me. Are the wave heights in feet they are talking about in this video on the "Hawaii scale" so like the face is actually twice as many feet? And then when they are talking about wave heights anywhere else they are talking in actual height of the face?? And what about like when they talk about Jaws? What is the actual face height??? And why not just standardize it at this point?? I'm confused.
I think the fix is in and what kind of presentation was that? happen upon him walking down the road and handing him the wave of the winter check? not much pomp and officiality in that. besides, kelly is a clumsy looking surfer, imo, but to his credit, his wave selection is second to none, though.
im amature surfer. does anyone know the name of the trick where you stand on the nose of the board facing backwards or frontwards (while surfing obviously) ? iv been practicing it
I remember buttons at vland/first of all/that great matt of scaled hair/shaking the sponge blown out of the tube/wave of the winter/waving webbed wondering/and I was the king of freddyland/and Ronnie burns playing space invaders/at the sunset beach inn.
This video, however temporary, has torn years off my old guy mentality. I was a Surfer too.
Thanks for the Buzz.
Michael Olsen once a surfer always a surfer💪
i remember the fisrt time coming out the water and say that was the best wave ive ever had,,, iwas on a high for about 3 days off that one wave,,, beautiful
moved away from surf for my child 12 years ago. this was very moving to watch and hear every ones perspective. especially from legends I looked up to for a decade. so funny how Kelly didn't even think he would make it. he really has balance like a falling cat, just amazing.
Dude why would you stop surfing?? take your child surfing
KELLY SLATER is the absolute best and excels as a commentator! Thank you!
Kelly is a great ambassador for surfing. Like all the great ones before him he holds up a standard second to none. We are blessed to have this gentleman represent us in our sport of kings.
I'm ready for Kelly to amaze us again.
just did
This is a very well done video. Having been to three Triple Crown competitions you really get an idea of how difficult this is. Surfed 35 years and still feel like a beginner at the North Shore, totally humbling "The Proving Grounds" Excellent work
4:35 really heartfelt, guy seems to care a lot
wow. 2:28 - beautiful shot of the waves from an angle I haven't seen before. amazing!
Ben Hine. Go to youtube and type in Drone and Pipeline and you'll see a bunch of videos taken with drones. It's the million dollar view.
SanFranciscoBay Thanks. Amazing angles. So much more versatile then from the water.
This is Just UNBELIEVABLE !!!!!!!!!
The _longest,_ most natural, and interesting interview of Kelly I've ever heard, was listening to him on the _Joe Rogan Podcast._
so many guys out at the same spot, its amazing how one guy could dominate.
Pretty cool video, thanks for posting.
I love this Video
Love Kelly so much. Pure joy to watch.
Excellent documentary.
Great video and outstanding photography and surfing
It’s great hearing Pancho speak.
RIP Ricardo dos Santos...Winner 2013....love and peace...
i love surf videos. its the only place on youtube that you dont get into stupid fights and trolling. must be something in the water.
jennifer dolschenko no that is not true people aruge load look at truthaboveagenda his comment make a arguement
Does Kelly Slater ever admit to channeling the supernatural ?
Many rock stars have admitted to it.
Now this is just a theory of mine but are the recent increase in shark attacks & encounters actually staged ? Are they setting the stage to Unleash the Beast, a 50 ft Great White Shark created by scientists by splicing in the Nephilim Giantism gene into a Great White Shark embryo ? If they are going to do it wouldn't the Bi11abong Pipeline slave Masters be the perfect setting since it is Ke11y Slater's final event as a pro.

Jason "Fri The 13th" Statham recently starred in the Megalodon movie titled THE MEG, will life imitate art ? I doubt it but it's fun to speculate. If it happens it sure would give meaning to the Bible verse "Woe to earth & sea"
Up from the deep Meg's teeth did gleam seemed he was thinking about just one thing he opened his jaws & shook his dorsal & said, I think I'll have a bite sized morsel .
Oh yeah . . . .??!!
@Will K Shilling , Japan is famous for Monster movies. Will they unleash the man made Megalodon Beast at the Summer Olympics surfing competition ? Ke11y definitely channels the supernatural
Jamie O'Brien saying "stoked" lol love that dude!
I really do envy all surfers, you make it looks so easy and graceful. I'll stick to the bodyboard if I get the chance to get to the beach once in a blue moon.
The wedges are unanimous!
...sick, SICK pits!
...and Kelly's wave judgment and selection are beyond reproach.
Right on, Kelly, Riiiii-ght ON!

26:05 Kelly was soo pumped when he got the check like a little kid on Christmas haha
Kelly Slater, world's greatest athlete.
I imagine that God likes surfers. When he's looking down at his creation, these guys are sliding down the side of it having fun.
4:05 Reef always gets the wave of the day, it's crazy the waves he makes
I wanna see photo guy in the water got
I'd guess you have to know yourself pretty well to take on a wave like this... respect...
those waves spit so hard
AMAZING.

Peter Mullen ...agreed, and without the music. I want to hear the power of the waves
I like this, fantastic.
They make it look easy
Love this video , come to la push WA
Captivating!
31:16!! I just watch it over and over again, so gnarly :)
Sure call me old but I use to have spots like sunset to myself and a few friends in the 70s dawn patrol. 15 guys out was a crowd.

Rothman locked in
I been Surfing since
1979 that barrel was
One that sticks out . Made a difficult wave
Look easy. Insco SFCA
Mr. Lopez a living legend.
Most awesome vid!!!
Hes truly a legend😮😮😮😮😮
I know what I'm doing on my next holidays, go to Hawaii and learn to surf, that looks like fun and not to hard, like a lot of other things I've tried
4:38 RIP Ricardo Dos Santos!
Muito bom o documentário !!!
Collect bullet points as:"Branches of {2s and 6s}!
XY=Transfer 4s branches with, canvas translations!
smiley was my favorite.. that was a 10 plus
100%. Overall Kelly has done what few, if any, will ever repeat.
Watching this at the end of 2014.... j.o'b looks so much younger(i expect $50 for this compliment)
Perfect.....

Awesomeness yeeeees......
Surfers go!!!!! Surfers come!!!!! And the pipeline is the same!!!!!! Big and dangerous!!!!! Only the Brave!!!!!!!
I wish somebody would install many quality controllable surf cameras on the North Shore for viewing big surf so we can view them online.
+SanFranciscoBay Swellmagnet . com has a free pipe cam that is up 24/7. The conditions at Pipe are rarely good though.
Pumping! But Greg Noll is here in Cronulla, go figure!
Thanks for the Pipeline Web Cam. Here is the link: swellmagnet.com/surf-cams/hawaii-pipeline/
Just watch some surf movies . That will be all the camera you need . Endless summer 2. North shore. Blue crush lol. Big Wednesday.

Feeling kinda transcendental.
At 9:29 he starts talking about "the boil". I couldn't quite understand what and where it is... English is not my native language and I may have missed some words and meanings.
Is it the spray at the end of the wave? It didn't sound like it...
Can someone help explain it to me?
Hi, the boil is an area where the wave breaks at Pipeline where the reef is so shallow that the water when it is being sucked up the face of the wave is distorted and makes a roundish rough area. It's a bit like a ring of white water that is very rough and if you surf over it you can catch a rail or nose dive.
Thanks!!!
they should do also "the air of the winter"
Pipe Lineは、凄い！！
all I can say is W O W O W!!!

21:56... anyone know this song? "All the waters gone all the trees are dry there's no more water no more tears to cry"
ever id the song? sounds like eligh from living legends maybe
That was so epic I thought they were going to fail
Anyone know the artist at 21:51 "Shine on me...when the rains come. Sun comes up..."?
Are the names Kai and Kalani the most used for non native Hawaians?
Gerry is looking very sage-like now, compared to the guy with the mustache they everyone knew in the 70's.

Pipeline.... north shore of Oahu, Hawaii. Very distinct left, close to the beach. Warm water. Crowded. Check also the final credits.

I think it might help if you’re famous
LOVE YOU SLATER
im amature surfer. does anyone know the name of the trick where you stand on the nose of the board facing backwards or frontwards (while surfing obviously) ? iv been practicing it
Does anyone know the name of the song at 21:50?
Kelly don't let anyone get world title until you 6 feet down under!
I love the Go pro back board shots. It's the closest thing without the drop.
