Tow Surfing 50ft+ Hawaii Biggest Swell in Years (I'm Terrified)

This Hawaii trip has completely nuts! First I get injured, then somehow we're here for what locals are calling the biggest swell in years with 50ft+ Surf & then we score the most epic Waimea River ever!? What is going on!? It feels like the Twilight Zone & I'm limping it off as I go, but I'm stoked to be spending some time on the North Shore & scoring some waves as we go! Thanks for all the love & stoke!! - Ben

"My heart rate went from 80 to 96." Classic, legendary JOB at his finest. Ben and Kalani's heart rates were probably 150+.

Thank you Ben. I am starting my new life and going to clean myself up. You have inspired me with your journey, and honesty. Thank you. Wish I could message you directly! Thank you, and much love!!!

[@rvmcwhorter]

Absolute legends all of you !! But Ben was shitting . Kalani called it .... might be biggest ever . And he caught the biggest wave of his life . Ben overcame and killed it !! And JOB as a mentor and good friend. Ben you are absolutely living the dream !!

[@rumtum99]

Jamie and Benny conquered Hawaii!! This is amazing bro you’re going to have to move the entire family out there and just keep the ball rolling! 🤙🏼

[@martinbonniciphotography]

BIG DOG!!! What I loved about this clip is how everyone works together, it couldn't work any other way. Also in the past I have seen smarmy comments saying when are you going to go out in some real surf. Today you shut mouths just by pushing yourself. Seriously, I am sure all of the people that want to see you do well are very happy for you. Big props to JOB Kalani those guys are amazing.

[@RayOnWaX]

You deserve every fricking second of awe you experienced in this vlog. You prove everything is possible. Thanks for this vid

Wow Ben. It has been something else to see your progression over the past few years. You respect the fear and embrace the challenges. You’re making us Jersey folk unbelievably proud. I mean, what’s next?? Jaws? Because frankly, that’s not really a stretch to envision. I’d LOOOVE to see that.

[@christopherbelmonte5145]

This one was better than Jamie's footage of the same day shh don't tell him

[@garywilson1688]

I was spell bound watching Jamie's footage. Great edit Justin. Ben's footage is a perfect complement to Jamies in that Ben shows (IMHO) more of the intense feelings and a little more background into the session. So, I like BOTH the vlogs.

Dude, I'm so stoked for you. Like you said, maybe you didn't get the wave you thought you might, but to go into one of the largest swells in recent history and come out catching multiple huge waves, without injury or incident is amazing. And then to top it off, riding with some of the best pipeline surfers in the world...dude, thats one hell of a day. Congrats man!

[@Sarg3e]

Dude, dude, duuuuude! I literally cried during the outro. As I was watching I was thinking about how far you’ve come since I first started watching 5+ years ago. To be where you were and who you were with just doesn’t happen to surfers from NJ. You’ve grinded so hard to get to this point and through out you have always stayed true to who you are and to the Nub Nation. You have earned your spot amongst the legends my friend. I don’t think I’ve ever been happier for someone I don’t know on a personal level. Keep pushing yourself and stay safe out there. As always, thanks for taking us along for the ride. It gives me great joy to watch ✌🏽❤️🌊🍍🤙🏽
