Left talk: Teahupo'o... vs... Cloudbreak.

So this is cloudbreak, right?

At 4:00 id be shyting myself paddling out...

Looks heavier than typical footage I've seen at Chope's...?

I'm goofy too...have put a lot of work into working the backside the past 6 months or so and I've found it helps the goofy frontside when gettin a left, no? Awareness on a wave just seems better frontside after working backside consistently.

Anyway - this footage, if possible,looks like point break 2 trailer ---- wayyyy heavier, brah!

 

cheuops is way heavier hands down.

 

from experience

 

Dang bro

 

What's different about them? To the third hand eye, this one does seem to peel faster and have more of a crispier, thinner barrel.

 

You can make some comparisons between Cloudbreak and Teauhpoo when you look at this video
But this video is freakishly huge Cloudbreak. Definitely not normal everyday Cloudbreak
On average Teahupoo is a much heavier wave. And when it gets really big like Code Red big there is no comparison to any wave in the world

 

I noticed one thing right off the bat: if you *ever* attempted to ride that high of a line in the tube at Chopes, you would get unmercifully chewed up and thrown onto the flats by a 6 foot thick lip.

Look at some Teahupoo vids...everybody invariably sets up at the bottom, then negotiates the horse shoe bowl as it bends towards the channel. Anybody caught lurking at the top gets tossed hard.

Everybody says big Cloudbreak is not to be fvcked with...but everybody agrees that Chopes is probably the most dangerous wave in the world.

I've always considered big a$$ slabs like Shipstern's, Ours, Dungeons etc. to be on par with Teahupoo, personally.

 

How fast do you think they are traveling in mph's?

A simple Ludacris speed would been enough!

 

Narragansett Town Beach is way heavier.

Cyclops gives me shivers like roller coaster you tube vids.

 

lol dont forget wrightsville beach nc.

The difference between wrightsville and pipe: wrightsvilles heavier.

 

wrightesville makes belmar look like lake ontario

truth.

 

idk man 3 miles of beach, 1000+ plus frothing uncw students that just started surfing last year and want to practice there "airs" on knee high chop crammed into it. Not to metion all the privileged blonde haired trust funders, who apparently never had a real job and only have time to scout crappy surf, driving around there big pavement princess lifted Chevy-whatevers mouthing off and snaking all the good waves.

 

I seent it

 

it takes two to tow
