Don’t have the guts to charge Teahupo’o? You’re not alone. Luckily, Mark Mathews does, and he’s willing to grab his Sony Action camera and stuff himself inside this heavy wave to show us what we’re missing. From the looks of it, we’re all missing out on a whole lot. Cue FOMO.
Mathews even takes a Tahitian lip to the head and comes out the other side smiling, which should trigger some sort of smile chain reaction if you can appreciate just how heavy that slab of water is. But he doesn’t stop here. From taming Shipsterns to Teahupo’o to pretty much whatever looks the gnarliest, Mark Mathews ain’t scared. And we love that about him.
Can’t get enough views from inside the barrel? Neither can we. Have all you can handle with these.
