Teahupoo is a small village on the south west coast of Tahiti Island and has a deadly reef brake. It is world wide known for it’s non stop number of barrels it delivers and the extremely shallow coral reef. As a result, a tremendous wave is created, with amazing force and water volume. This wave is considered to be the Mother of all waves, of all surf spots around the planet.
And this is the place were Billabong Pro Tahiti surf competition, part of the World Surf Championship Tour, takes place every year. Teahupoo break comes to life during summer, when the south swells without any land blocking their way, build up with energy. The size of the swell starts working at 1.5 m/5 ft and holds up to 5 m/16 ft and over while the direction of the wave is left.
Riding this massive wave can only be attempted by professional, with top physical and mental condition surfers. The dangers are many but once you are prepared to come along with it, it will be an adrenaline explosion you will never forget. And that is if you can come out alive!
