A day at Teahupoo last summer during the Billabong Pro waiting period is what many are calling the biggest and gnarliest Teahupoo ever ridden. Chris Bryan was fortunate enough to be there working for Billabong on a day that will go down in the history of big wave surfing. The French Navy labeled this day a double code red prohibiting and threatening to arrest anyone that entered the water.
Kelly Slater described the day by saying "witnessing this was a draining feeling being terrified for other people's lives all day long, it's life or death. Letting go of that rope one time can change your life and not many people will ever experience that in their life."
All images where shot by Chris Bryan using the Phantom HD Gold camera. To see more of Chris' work check out his website here

Watching people trying to ride this one makes you feel that any other average wave out there is really nothing in terms of power, i wonder what would the adrenaline rush be when thinking that a tiny balance issue will cost you to be under two tones ore more of water.
The ability of limitless stability
