Billabong Pro Tow In Session – Teahupoo
Billabong Pro Teahupoo Tow In Session
The famed Tahiti surf break, Teahupoo, has produced some of the most epic waves the ASP has ever seen for any event with the Billabong Pro Teahupoo tow in session to go down in the surfing records books as one of the most insane sessions ever surfed.
Watch this video created by the team at Billabong which shows the Billabong Pro Teahupoo tow in session. You won’t believe it is humanly possible to surf on these slabs of water. Absolutely insane!!!
After several lay days the Billabong Pro Teahupoo organisers have been waiting on this swell to hit the Teahupoo reef. On Sunday the 27th of August, 2011, the Billabong Pro Teahupoo event was once again given a lay day. However the some of the worlds best and most experienced big wave tow in surfers were there to take on these insane conditions.
Also, most people wouldn’t relise that these waves are breaking over the razer sharp Teahupoo reef which is only a few feet under these 25+ foot waves.
If you would like to see exactly what the reef looks like and just how shallow it really is then take alook at theis video produced and made by the legendary surf film maker Jack McCoy. Then imagine these moving monsters breaking above it!!!
