This is awesome for three reasons: 1. No music, just live action sound. 2. Filming the whole thing, including paddle action. 3. Whipeout pov!

Think how badass that camera man is sitting on the front of his board, filming him!

this is the best POV clip/ clips I've ever seen at jaws, hands down! That barrel was well deserved after that hold down.

Whatever that means I like it. I gotta ya

[@starlight250]

@@chirpthird he means its the best surfers point of view of what its like to fall off a wave at jaws (its not fun) and that the wave he got afterword at 2:14 was a well deserved reward, since physycally he had to try really hard to not die in order to get it

Oh my goodness that barrel at 2:03 just blew my mind... The foam ball appears half a city block away at one point. Insane

[@delphic464]

Obviously this some amazing surfing. The skill, resilience, and guts are remarkable. But can I just take a moment to give a very humble shout out to the camera mount? That thing took it on the head over and over and never budged.

Kai is like a human gyroscope. When those monster lips start throwin over his head, he is in as much control as one can possibly be. He is a legend already.

[@seaturtledog]

The camera captures Kai's legs and body making the small moves required to stay in balance and moving in the correct direction. It would seem one wrong move and you are a sure wipe out.

[@harveyirvine]

As someone who has never actually surfed, I love these videos find them so interesting/ terrifying 🤣👍🏻

[@Jarboy]

Try surfing HERES some tips ask someone to push you a bit and see what leg stands for support ok 👌

[@lothar34]

Same. I've had recurring nightmares for over 30 years of waves the same size these maniacs actually swim towards😂

[@anthonylove821]

I’m with u. Read my posting haha.

[@humphreysmiggens3881]

You owe it to yourself drop in on a wave one day. Even that one shoulder high wave that was prefect in every way is all reward and little risk and could ignite a lifetime of stoke

You and Nathan are setting the standards for surf POVs. Thank you dude. You're taking us mortals right into the middle with you

[@landscapingbyoasis]

Have to watch this before every session to get psyched. Amazing. Paddles in like it’s a 4-6’ day.

[@1010AD]

Coming from a non surfer at this angle makes you appreciate how hard surfing is. Quality footage 👌 👌🔥 👊

[@getwildwithevan]

Best part of that big barrel was your trust fall at 2:27. The Ocean has me!

[@ralphiewigs2208]

I must be getting old, but I never thought I would be seeing footage like this...simply amazing. GoPro tends to make scary surfing situations look fun and easy, but this footage actually conveys some of the incredible intensity of a huge, fast moving wave.

[@3dpete1]

Didn't know I could hold my breath for 6 min.

[@jasonjackson5696]

Great footage, a real pleasure to watch. There was a guy right at the impact zone on the same set wave that picked you off in the beginning. He must’ve taken a severe beating.

[@martinXY]

The usual surf videos shot from 50 yards or more by drone, played back in slo-mo with chilled music make it look dangerous yet relaxing. This video shows just how much hard work it truly is.

[@kaleo2205]

Absolutely amazing footage! I like how your focused and totally in control flying on the water at mach speed. You truly are a master at what you do.

[@WillPage]

Congrats for making the dream life your own. From Australia.

Absolutely the best point of view big wave surfing I've seen. Really puts you right there, the absolute raw energy of it all is mesmerizing and frightening.

[@hawaiianseaturtle009]

Seeing barrels so big you could stand in them from this POV is incredible. Waves I for sure will never surf in my lifetime but can appreciate thru you. Those slo-mo’s are incredible as well! Stay safe cheeee! 🤙

He way he catches waves. It’s like he’s reading them in a way that other people just aren’t seeing. Amazing!

Dude the amount of stress he puts on his body and the composure he must maintain not to panic is incredible to see!

I think some might take it for granted that we can watch video footage like this but for me I'm blown away. I mean to see inside a wave like that is insane and something I never thought would be possible. Kudos to you Kai!

He makes catching and riding those waves seem so easy! There’s a lifetime of best ever waves for most normal surfers in one session AND its at Jaws. I mean, where do you begin? That’s before you look at the first 2 mins which is hands down the best ‘big wave nightmare’ footage Ive ever seen. Incredible film & surfer. Nice to end the year with something to put a smile on your face.

[@dos_mas_805]

What an incredible waterman - one of the best on the planet. Amazing skills and guts. So calm in heavy situations. Terrific video thanks for posting and showing us average surfers what it's like at big Jaws because I'll never reach those heights, but videos like these makes me feel I'm in the impact zone or barrel with you (from the comfort of an office chair lol).

DUUUUUUUDE! Thanks for keeping in the messy moments! This video provides such good perspective of what you big wave surfers are up against.
