A miracle, plain and simple. The Spring 2003 Tahiti sessions saw forty-four of the world's best touring surfers, a handful of hellmen and a local crew whose knowledge and talent is unmatched in these waters meet The Swell From Hell head-on. The heaviest waves on the planet exploded on Teahupoo's reef as Malik Joyeux, Strider Wasilewski and Cory Lopez towed into bombs that flat-out dwarfed Laird Hamilton's historic ride from 2000 and (barely) lived, to the amazement of the gallery in the channel.Meanwhile, at The Right, death-defying barrels are forgotten for an afternoon as Chris Ward, Kalani Robb, Joel Parkinson, Shea Lopez and Taylor Knox blow the tops off of some of the best high-performance waves the world has to offer. Starring: Malik Joyeux, Strider Wasilewski, Cory Lopez, Raimana Van Bastolear, Vetea 'Poto' David, Manoa Drollet, Chris Ward, Kalani Robb, Joel Parkinson, Shea Lopez, Taylor Kno |
