Watch this whole edit all 59 minutes of it as this swell chase is historic. You will see some of the biggest waves I’ve ever shot. Going back to 1998 I made a movie called Biggest Wednesday Condition Black. It was my first trip to Peahi/Jaws and was literally one of the biggest swells to hit Hawaii back in the day. Well, this was maybe bigger. Held on the same day as the Eddie Aikau Big Wave Contest. There is a good chance that the world’s biggest wave was surfed. Peahi/Jaws is literally at the top of the pile when it comes to the best big wave surf spots.
This day was truly historic. Take time to take in this whole story to the grand finale at the end. – Tim Bonython
