How big is too big? The Billabong Pro presented by Air Tahiti Nui is going to look something like the beast from above. This Manoa Drollet wave was on a swell of 14ft at 14 seconds from 209 degrees. Saturday is calling for bigger swell (10 to 14ft at 20 seconds at 190-195 degrees) what will that look like? No one really knows.

Im with the guys for the boat,to ride that wave unscathed is a master doing what he does best!!

I've said it before and i'll say it again. 99% of us on here would shit our pants even watching that from the beach. Even from inside a boat I would be worried about the outboard cutting out, the mental integrity of the driver of the boat, the likelihood of rouge flotsam and jetsam busting a hole in the boat! The list goes on..

what are you talking about rogue floatsom? i dont see anything floating around and definitely not something big enough to crack a fiberglass hull and put it under within a few minutes... kook.

rouge flotsum? is that like make-up debris from all those posing bambinos ; }

Look at his wake running into the barrel and then the thickness of water above that. In the words of Del Trotter - "He who dares, wins!"

I reckon I could surf that while busting a hand stand with a beer in 1 hand and my dick in the other!

Despite chasing swell dominating my life, this is one of those "I wouldn't even want that" moments.

for comparison's sake, please refer to the only other photo on MSW from one Sunday, May 1, 2005...

Tow surfing this wave is easy, you just pull in, smack the lip, WHAPAH, drop down, BAWWHHHH, then after that, just ride the barrel and get pitted, so pitted.

top comment dude.... had a proper little office chuckle, much to the bewilderment of my colleagues, quickly followed by a stern look from my boss.

Wanting to surf something and actually saying that you could are two different things. I want to surf that but I know I wouldn't have a hope in hell.

Watching from the boat?! ... Wouldnt you want you be surfing the wave ?
