[PT-Teahupoo] I flew halfway round the world last minute for this view. I'd been to Chopes four years in a row before this trip and not seen it bigger than 10ft. So when this swell lit up the charts, myself and Danny Wall sacked everything off and got out the credit cards. Like a rabbit in the headlights, three days later, I was swimming along like a muppet staring straight at Manoa Drollet through my 70mm lens while this thing thundered down the reef. I'd never been that close to a 20ft plus barrel before. I thought it was going to flatten me but then that's what I'd gone there to experience so I hung about and it was sweet - the spit was so violent it blew me into the channel, unbelievable but true. The next day I watched in horror as Danny Wall came up from a beating to take a wave almost as big as this straight on the head, he came up laughing. Also unbelievable, but true! Easily the most incredible waves I've ever experienced.
