A friend of mine (my neighour and someone I grew up surfing with) caught the biggest wave ever on a kite a few weeks ago

[/quote]


while it is impressive that he is kiting in front of and around that giant bomb, however that is not kitesurfing on the wave. I would chalk that up as biggest wave ever kitesurfed in front of. I really need a job.

Here's the direct drone video link. It looked super shifty out there. Just watching the people in the lineup trying to get in position and avoid the sneakers. No wonder that Whaler got capsized. Plus I only saw a one or two catch anything.

It's not overhead to me!
8'8" L-41 ST and a whole pile of boards I rarely use.

It looks so organized from the air.

At 4:30 you can watch Ian Wallace trying to get up and over on a stand up.

Not very...but super clean!
One could go into a mall in Kansas and ask a teenager "What is a surfer looking for?, and the answer will always be, "The perfect wave"
