Basque barrel hound Aritz Aranburu left town a while back for greener pastures (re: greener, thumping barrels) in Nias with Spain’s Indar Unanue and Italy’s Leo Fioravanti, collecting the footage for the first in a hashtagged web series. Aritz can sniff out the tubing peak of any swell. Mundaka, Hossegor – he seems to be in every edit when the conditions are glassy and piping. A trip with him guarantees a top-end barrel exchange, and the second half of the 11-minute clip above shows as much.</div>

Did Nathan Florence Just Ride the Heaviest Wave Ever Paddled at Teahupo’o?

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."<br />
<br />
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.<br />

A NEW WAVE DISCOVERED IN INDIA

Best Of, News, Video, WeAreSurfers 9:09 PM

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Kepa Acero puts it on the table, he's used to long journeys. According to Google Earth, the wave had all the potential to be a new Skeleton Bay. Even more so when the largest swell of the last 25 years was heading towards the small Indian island, which was difficult to access. Accustomed to the fact, Natxo Gonzalez, Kepa Acero and Aritz Aranburu took their courage with both hands and braved the Indian authorities to try to score what they thought was a perfect new wave. And despite the difficulty of the language, the hostility of the local authorities and many other obstacles, the Basque trio managed to get there.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The result was... surprising! A perfect wave from afar but in the end, far from perfect. Not to mention, unsurfaced. However, the trio will leave this trip with eye-popping images, with the bonus of a night under the stars.</span></div>

<span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">A few days ago, I went spearfishing with a couple of friends.</span> After swimming through a school of sierras and not taking a shot, I came back empty handed. My friend, though, came back with a 40-pound roosterfish slung over his back, fish guts in his hair, and a huge, shit-eating grin on his face. The next day, he shot a grouper that looked to be the size of a hideous, brown school bus. Even dragging around a large, bloody dead fish, I’m sure he wasn’t thinking about sharks. I know I wasn’t while I was flopping around trying not to get my legs tangled in the buoy line. That’s because where we are right now isn’t exactly the shark attack capital of the world–that unofficial title would probably go to somewhere in Australia, given the odd spate of shark attacks in the last few years.</div>

That’s where the video you see above took place. In northern Queensland, a spearfisherman was part way through his dive when he encountered an aggressive bull shark. It’s hard to watch, not only because it’s scary, but because he shoots the shark right into its open mouth–which he absolutely needed to do.</div>

Watch This Surfer Ride ABOVE The Wave, Not On It

Video 2:37 PM

Surfers -- as cool and chill as they seem -- are actually a lot 
nerdier than you think. And it's their mild obsession with physics, 
which comes in handy when trying to catch a wave, that has hooked at 
least some surfing devotees to this spaceship-like board capable of 
gliding <em>above</em> the surface of the water.<br />
<br />
The hydrofoil surfboard, as surfing legend Laird Hamilton claims, "uses the energy under the water" and touches a "deeper source of the wave" to push the surfboard up and above the water. Using a combination of fluid dynamics, a pair of snowboarding boots and a slightly angled and strategically placed foil wing underneath, the hydrofoil board lifts surfers up over the water as they pick up speed.<br />
<br />
While not new to the water sports world -- wind, wake and even kneeboarding surfers have been hydrofoiling since the 1960s -- these futuristic boards don't get much play time in the traditional and more popular surf scene.<br />
<br />
Hamilton,
 it seems, wants that to change. In his never-ending pursuit to improve 
traditional surfing -- even combining it with the landlocked sport of golf
 -- the big wave guru has mastered the underrated art of tow-in 
hydrofoil surfing. The results, as demonstrated in his new, drone-shot 
video filmed on the Hawaiian island of Kauai, are magical.<br />
<br />
As one hydrofoiling fan described it, it's like "you're surfing on a cloud."<br />

Jamie O’Brien redefines rainy days on the North Shore with puddle surfing, river running and more shorepound madness. For normal folks on rainy days, there’s a few options. Read a book. Whip out the backgammon set or re-watch the entire series to Peepshow. Maybe catch-up on some house chores or mind-numbing paperwork if you’re at a real loss. But not in Jamie’s house, baby. As witnessed in Episode 5, rainy days for JOB’s clique are, you guessed it, bonkers!<br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">How many gigantic walls have we seen it fall down at Jaws, Nazaré or Mavericks? At the age of 26, Kai Lenny is constantly pushing the boundaries of fat surfing. This year, the Hawaiian took advantage of the XXL swell like no one else. Tubes, carves, air, big waves have become his playground. Remember, the free surfer had already shared with us a completely crazy video about his best waves of the winter.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">In his new edict, Kai changes his angle. With his Go Pro, he takes us to the heart of the most monstrous tubes on the planet. So when you see the surfer being swallowed under tons of water, you think you're pretty good on your side of the camera. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">"Be aware that surfers have been warned a number of times before and during these images.

To heal the traumas of a violent past, young people are undergoing surf therapy. An action with a strong ecological dimension". Emmanuel Bouvet knows what he's talking about. Together with his wife Carine Camboulives and his 2 daughters, he travelled to two of Colombia's most remote and least visited regions: Guajira on the Caribbean coast and Chocó on the Pacific coast. Simply because surfing trips should not be just a round trip from the airport to the spots. </span><br />
