This wave is amazing, but the soundtrack of this video is by far my favorite.

[@franciscocerqueira7179]

Crazy!! Awesome!!!!

[@Legalbe]

Superbe vidéo !

[@heathstott]

Ruler edge perfect 👌 That’s as perfect as it gets👍

[@yootb2120]

Waw sick....video montage is amazing

[@rydertheepic]

Beautiful video.

[@chaseburns4444]

Oh man I wish you made more videos. Such a sick rider.

[@amac868]

best bon iver sync ever. feeling it.. top vid to all involved

[@francoisvasavoir1900]

Magnifique vidéo.🤙

[@grimgrimey]

That Friday session was incredible.looks a more makable wave than one palm point but still just as heavy. Thanks for the upload 👍

[@pierre-louiscostes7481]

The last day was probably the best 😉

[@krusher74]

i've seen people make one plam waves, i've only ever seen one stand up make one wave here. Its just looks like the end section has the wrong shape of reef which goes to shallow creating a run away end section of death.

[@0warami_7oo]

@krusher74 yeah they are tripping. apocalypse is virtually unmakable. one palm can get 70 sec tubes

[@hichamaissane4289]

Best vidéo i have seen

[@benjamingueguen9398]

Félicitations, Pierre, cette vidéo est Magique !

[@pierre-louiscostes7481]

Merci Ben!

[@johndoeyedoe]

Heavy but looks like you scored some fun waves.

[@vark1907]

Your skill on these waves is amazing…. a true master of body boarding and more importantly, barrel riding. There is so much to learn from you, whether it’s your upper body positioning, knowing exactly what to do with your fins for the most speed and drawing perfect lines. Like the waves at 13:55 and 17:05 🤯🤯🤯 Is this wave apocalypse? It looks too evenly breaking for apocalypse. And do you try to bend your legs up slightly to keep your fins out of the water when in the barrel?

[@pierre-louiscostes7481]

Thank you so much for the kind words ! Yes it s Apocalypse

[@34thncrenshaw]

this wave seems super fast like not makeable on a lot, seen it in other videos, crazy how hollow its is, but looks incredably shallow and dangerous

[@pierre-louiscostes7481]

It is really fast! And the craziest part is the fact it finishes on dry reef!

[@tonyallen9131]

There was some amazing water shots but it would have been nice to see a couple from a different angle

[@CutBackTvChannel]

yeahh

oh holy that waves looks terrifying

[@cjs5740]

This is just like Mike Stewart riding Padang foamballs in the 80s.

[@soartothesky]

Pierre never forget you, Enrique Bonilla from Puerto Rico, Jeff Hubbard from Hawaii and Guillerme Tamega were the key figures in this shit that redefined the highest aerials ever made. Dont you ever forget you are top 4. Forever braddah. Theres nothing in the mind of the human that could replicate or explain what it feels to drop 25ft above a 13ft wave closeout ahead of the whitewash for the thrill of it all. Never forget. If we ever rode a contest finals you take the wave. Dont make me have this argument now. I would let Jeff win too. Im trying to loose some weight right now upper 200's but recently I still got all my super hardcore manouvers on tiny waves like my very strong reverses with a past of straight surreal AIR as these butterfly gut connections that you see the whole coast or it feels you dropped from a heli, the eyeballs of the sponger never forget. You must encourage other spongers to ride like you did because they suck and you were technically the last one, year wise me and jeff early 2004-2006 you, 2009-2011 redefined what was possible in terms of air time big time, and probably until forever you remain one of the last true UFO hitters. Peace love drug free and tons of bagguete.

[@Tyler-sv4sw]

You guys scored.. what size swell was on the charts?

[@dx2780]

Do you have a promotion code on pride?

[@unreal4202]

Looks like an apocalypse.

[@angelomelo1247]

Altas ondas mesmo, do mais perfeito que pode haver! Mas essa praia de plástico no final.... omg

[@pierre-louiscostes7481]

Obrigado pelo elogio do video. Pois , foi triste ver essa praia assim mas e mesmo a realidade...

[@johnswimcat]

I wonder whether anyone rides kneeboards any more - ? You can still use fins and surely you have more control than on a bodyboard. Just displaying my ignorance but I'm old enough to have seen Crystal Voyager when it first came out. George Greenough did some cool moves on his kneeboard even then

[@boogieheads]

Some still do

[@Tbagsmacgee321]

19:31 omg the pollution. So sad

[@krusher74]

indo has no refuse collection, so they either burn it or throw it in a river. When walking down a road there if you get hit by smoke the toxic plastic fumes get you right in the back of the throat.

[@DadolfShitler69]

What's wrong with your legs mate?

[@falakoala4579]

Damn I thought it was going to be a surf clip

[@jasonlapean3868]

No but it's better

[@pierre-louiscostes7481]

I hope you enjoyed it 😉

[@jezf6096]

Be nice if you didnt have to share this

[@krusher74]

its way off the map on indo trips and basically a closeout.

[@0warami_7oo]

@krusher74 excactly it's there to be tested, the results will be skin left on the reef every time haha

[@oomburra]

Community guidelines are important to a Australian Aboriginal communities , tribes and country not to mention other links people who have made up laws and punishment enforced upon them in evil Dictatorship or another country invaders and there's mass murder rape and torture. These things need community guidelines and standards Law's for la real world society to jail people. .which removes free speech,?

[@zavierorlos1948]

4 mins Introduction... really?

[@marcoc.1868]

Great waves but Too boring to watch. Always the same film angle, only barrels, no maneuvers, slow motion all the time... Nah

[@barndog8047]

Appreciate the wave and it intensity bro

[@marcoc.1868]

@@barndog8047 I do. But it's the same thing for 20 minutes... and the slow motion -_- Bodyboard is about the speed, the barrel and hit the lip.

[@heathstott]

@@marcoc.1868 agreed that’s why I’ve fractured my back twice😂

[@progressionsessions99]

this wave is all about getting pitted not going to see to much maneuvers

[@krusher74]

when you are dealing with an unmakable closeout barrel to dry reef there isnt a lot of choices.
