Not since the late great Andy Irons has a single ride at Teahupo'o generated so much chatter along the coconut wire. This wave -- this ridiculously big, thick, wide and... basically impossible wave -- has officially launched Nathan Florence into the annals of surfing history. At least as far as Kelly Slater, Sebastian Zietz and anyone else who witnessed the feat in person is concerned. Which makes perfect sense, as Seabass pointed out: "He's a Florence."

We can't predict the future, but chances are you're probably not going to see another ride this incredible for a very long time.
