Any man riding these giants is a warrior in my book. The force is strong amongst all them

[@markusbroyles1884]

Jesse Richman deserves lots of credit for being out there . it's clear that he's in control of the kite ~ Just learning this kite thing in my 4th year or so now... MUCH more difficult than it seemed to me. Once you learn to fly the kite tho it's freakin awesome. Surfing waves and doing that is a natural progression ~ BIG WAVES WELL ~ further down the road for sure ~

[@shaunwhite8332]

Those people on the cliffs got quite the show that day. I’m sure no one left their spot. That was awesome !!

[@cringecat3614]

Kitesurf seems cool. I like how he's flying above the waves.

[@RicardGomes76]

He is clearly risking his life!!!

[@debrabiderman4275]

The wave at 5:38 literally stopped my heart for a second. So fecking huge!

[@domzbu]

The one at the end of video 6:45 was bigger...All monsters

[@JorgeSantos1957]

O video está incrivel! Parabéns ao kitesurfer JESSE RICHMAN.. Nas maiores ondas do mundo conseguir fazer o que faz, não é para qualquer um. A música está top. Aqui vemos o que é um grande espetáculo pleno de magia, destreza, equilibrismo, acrobacia eu sei lá o que mais! Felizes os que tiveram a sorte de o ver fazer tudo isto...

[@jahkgdm]

He cuts out and flies 100’ in the air🤯

[@kitesurfflyer454]

Jesse, you have brass balls in my book. How about that Beam me up Scotty moment at 4:50? Incredible

[@richardbarton6747]

Always thought this looked like a kitesurfers wave !

[@tego268]

That was crazy! I loved it, Jesse def did it the best

[@Elaine67151]

Whoa! I fell in love be the Big for wave!🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊

[@dremanu]

This is freakin awesome!!!

[@bo5390]

Looks like a decent kicker.

[@MariaLuisa-lm6mc]

Fantastic! It seems like it's 5 feet bigger than when we rode it last year, at this time! I can't believe the dude pulled out of the barrel with his kite! Booyah!

[@Taurinomix]

Double of fun ! Surfing + flying = wavegasm

[@padlnjones]

fantastic, thanks....

[@davidhunt4307]

He goes so so high on his kick outs 🤯🤯🤯

[@THEBIGKUSH420]

FUN WAY TO PLAY IN THE OCEAN - RESPECT

[@staticintheattic1984]

What up Kush?!! That's one way to kick out the back, just fly to the next one lol

[@yvanpedron5255]

Incroyable........... Fantastique..

[@MARCELLO6859]

Wow Jesse!!!!! Very high performance!!

[@moomoo3031]

holy cow, how TF do you surf a wave like this AND keep tract of a kite at the same time!!!!??? some humans are just plain amazingly coordinated.

[@Surfer_Jay]

As a kitesurfer for 20 years & been in over 15 mtr swells, your kite becomes an extension of you (like a third arm). The trick with this level of surf is not to let it intimidate or scare you into submission... that happens & you're history!

[@luismarques9280]

Nazaré, the biggest waves on the planet are in this incredible fishing village in the amazing country of Portugal

[@LawrenceWolofsky]

Amazing surfing but looks like a lousy place to have a fishing village. Like who's the guy who said to his brother "This looks like a great place to go fishing" ?

[@luismarques9280]

@@LawrenceWolofsky Why a lousy place for a fishing village?

[@LawrenceWolofsky]

@@luismarques9280 Hi Luis, My apologies. My comment was meant to be humorous. I am very sorry if it was not taken that way. It seems to me that a place with 30 metre waves is not a good place to set out in a fishing boat. I have been to Portugal once, a few years ago, and I loved everything about the country. On our next trip there I will make it a point to visit Nazaré!

[@luismarques9280]

@@LawrenceWolofsky No problem 😉 Well, the 30 ft waves are formed in a specific path, it is not all over the place. And we must give even more respect to those guys. Portugal built a huge empire sailing all over the world facing the mighty Atlantic...those guys were really brave ones 😉 There is a famous Portuguese poet Fernando Pessoa that once said "oh sea, how much of your salt is from Portuguese tears" more or less...

[@LawrenceWolofsky]

@@luismarques9280 Thank you for your understanding. We visited the Atlantic and the Algarve coasts of Portugal. There are many reminders and monuments to the powerful abilities of Portuguese sailors. Marvellous, amazing country, Portugal!

[@unita39hse]

Simply AWESOME

[@alvarojoseleon]

A true Master!,,,Amazing!,,

[@andreway2308]

So great👌

[@shadowclaw77]

Awesome runs Jesse! Enjoyed watching this :-)

[@AndieZ4U2]

The Portuguese word, "NAZARE," means the same only spelled differently in Hebrew: NAZARETH!!!!!!!!! These waves, to me, are the most symbolic natural visual manifestations we all can witness as to who GOD REALLY IS!!! You can't stop the ocean! Jesse, I wish I could have ridden in tandem right there with you. THANKS for preparing THE WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't keep a good man down!

[@luismarques9280]

No, the waves are a phenomenon created by a big underwater canyon, funneling the water to the coast. The word meaning is correct, Nazaré is Nazareth, the bird place of Jeses

[@AndieZ4U2]

Brilliant, my friend. Thank you.

[@brendo2005]

dude that was insane!

[@AlastairJohnSellick]

Amazing

[@TDAlan]

This incredible.

[@sunshinedaydream6244]

That line @ 2:10 was SICK...

[@jasongarry1330]

This dude actually commits to surfing the wave, the other guy just played around with the waves. Either way you're definitely risking your life just going out there. Major props for going all the way to include it closing out on his head.

[@toddmulligan2609]

Heavy duty... getting right in there!

[@rozabo]

That's the gnarliest shit I've ever seen!

[@frankroman7546]

This guy is the best.

[@Markdmarque]

Awesome!!!...Definitely a way to escape when wave closes out by pulling up on the kite!!...Probably a safer option than surfing provided the kite surfer is good on waves....But still Amazing and gutsy!!!

[@dragaoazul66]

MAGNIFICO

[@vickiepate6597]

What makes the waves so big at Nizare?

[@rogeriocoelho8674]

Bem giro !

[@deemiller943]

Around 6:50 is the biggest "air" ever recorded. Amazing how he charged Nazare... I've windsurfed some outside reef , but this is Fucking Epic!!

[@lujzakisacanin5002]

Won-der-ful! Gratulation for the surfer!

[@jeffreyluciana8711]

Cool

[@felipedamatta2910]

Toppppp!!! 😨😨

just wow

[@josecorreia8606]

Deus e mais Glória a Deus Deus abençoe estes caras muito legal na Morão 👍👍

[@CN-xt7hj]

Superman for real...

[@foreverkurome]

lol the wavelets on these waves are literally as big as medium sized waves. Crazy.

[@captbad9313]

Oh my god!!

[@joaosaraiva9425]

Praia do Norte - Nazaré - Portugal ( 120 km/75 Miles ) North of Lisbon. The giant waves usually go from October to March, when there are storms and with the precious help of the Nazare Canyon."

[@SpiderWaffle]

5:53 Doesn't look like an Earthly wave.

[@semajpoker]

HOLY dooooly I've got soo much more respect for the surfers they can't just fly away when it suits them

[@hayorge27]

Garrett McNamara must do this. How this video doesn't have more views is beyond me. This is conquering Nazare

[@marceldevries1366]

I give this music a 10 ok ? :)

[@antoniojesus6062]

TOP

[@MAP08732]

How does he do a recovery after losing the board as seen part way through the clip? Did the jet ski just give him another board? Can't imagine being attached to a kite and stuck in those waves without a board.

[@lrc87290]

He can just body drag back to his board very quickly. Or the jet ski got it for him if another wave was coming.

[@jeffreyluciana8711]

Wow, that guy pulled himself through the wave

[@hazwaz6385]

how did he get hhis board back on would have been such a hassel

[@bernardkriel1]

RESPECT..wow its creepy just watching....that guy has the balls !

[@khultherro8613]

It should be called, "Bail Out Surfing." lol

[@joeweeks7256]

I want to surf that wave once before I die I'm 63

[@SF-wr4zn]

Make sure you cross of everything else on your Bucket List first 🙏

[@crownethorne]

Anything is possible in life 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼live your dreams

[@richierich6231]

Get insurance

[@GearZenChannel]

This is the K2 of surfing. Unless you are very fit and experienced it would not be wise.

[@IleneOva]

Ross Clarke Jones rips it up and hes only ten years younger than you.

[@Steve1734]

You have to keep the kite above the lip or out the front otherwise it will lose the wind. Then you are screwed.

[@ericscaillet2232]

Surely not if it is offshore?,well baring the wave in front of you that is

[@hazwaz6385]

When the wave looks bad you just fly over the top and get the next one. efficient

[@fredodofre]

The magic of offshore winds! With onshore winds it's a bit more complicated: you jump just before the wave closes and, since you go a bit faster than the wave, you land just in front of the whitewater after closure (I don't think someone will ever try it in huge waves anyway)

[@ericscaillet2232]

As long as your gear holds up...

[@73gmiller]

Shoulder hopping

[@27_syndicateshquad78]

Less surfing more flying

[@antpoo]

So you tube started now with 2 ads instead of 1

[@garman1966]

A little YT trick. After clicking on a video just back arrow followed by forward arrow and ALL ads will be erased.

[@YonnyMestampo]

@@garman1966 youtube vanced

[@johnrflinn]

At 4:50 he does the impossible. I thought the wave had him for sure.

[@domzbu]

MAN VS TSUNAMI

[@justincrediblelife]

Yea man that was ridiculous how he got sucked down by the wave and then just flew!

[@darcydejoux3614]

Real impressive ,you d really want to know what you are doing it seems.

[@joshuaa4099]

What a fuckin maniac. Wow!!!

[@ayates050320]

1st

[@thomasrebotier1741]

I wonder how much faster the wind goes over THOSE waves, and how he holds the kite in what's probably way over range

[@fredodofre]

I think he is not overpowered only when getting wind acceleration with Venturi effect at top of the wave, but all the time. Better for safety

[@AGAZILLION]

this guy could survive the end of the world.

[@jamesframus821]

Biggest rubber duck inflatable on a nazare wave

[@don_fren]

Funny thing, nazare can also be a totally flat waveless playground.

[@freggeskos]

That kite is like a cheat when ever in trouble he ''just'' fles away

[@MAP08732]

I was pretty impressed when he was closed out and still managed to escape.

[@clarkewi]

Its not for everyone...

[@MrJohanOne]

A M A Z I N G *

[@thaddeus2047]

Aliens say, "Fucking Humans!"

[@73gmiller]

That's not fair.. he just flys away as his nutz enter his stomach.

[@jaxwylde2139]

This guy must set off every metal detector, when he walks by them.

[@TheRealPopol]

Mais pourquoi se mettre derrière Des pylônes d’éclairage publique ????

[@spellward]

It's not a big wave; he's just tiny.

[@mechanicandi1064]

Are these waves really that big ?? 🤔

[@ericscaillet2232]

Yes...and some bigger

[@petermede3698]

Some of the world's largest

[@miguelrothes7]

This is not true. Biggest wave kitesurfed had 19 meters and was performed by Stru

[@theimage7030]

Those aren't mountains...

[@WillPage]

You can't just call timeout and stroll on into the beach if you don't like the way things are going. Oh wait yes, you can, there's a kite.

[@brendonleary]

Why not just play it proper speed?

[@majorpayne8373]

Frog Music...

[@andreibig2]

yeah, totally felt like a frog watching kitesurf here

[@tiffsaver]

As much as I appreciate this guy's amazing abilities, to me, only someone who free board surfs, from beginning to end, can be called a true surfer, not someone who bails out when the going gets tough.

[@prophet447]

Never committed to a single wave

[@matthewdegenaro26]

Video RIPS.. BUT! music blows...AS IT SHOULD, IT"S FRENCH.

[@domzbu]

Amazing music

[@kniefi]

I actually really dig the music!

[@jimbur5350]

Music is so shizzle.... Thumbs down for that 👎

[@cliveadams3916]

POINTLESS!
