This Swell Chase takes the award for one of the best paddle sessions i’ve EVER filmed.
Ask Nathan Florence, Billy Kemper, Jo Jo Roper, Benji Brand, Soli Bailey & the Coffin brothers. Cloudbreak was at its absolute dreamy best.
Having arrived back into Sydney on the Monday after 5 months in Europe to catching an early flight out the following morning to Fiji.
2 days later on Thursday the 7th of March this edit shows how historic this day was. Enjoy.
PS Special thanks to the king of the surfing drone Tucker Wooding.

I only experienced Cloudbreak once in my long lifetime. One ride many years ago when it was not well known. Its almost a metaphysical experience. Its quite different to Teahupoo which is just raw, dangerous power that last only a few seconds. Cloudbreak seems to take you on a journey and holds you in its hand like it welcomes your presence. When you flip over the back as it closes out, you have a feeling of serenity and beauty, not survival. Its unique. It changes you and restores you. You never want to leave.

Best surfer photography ever. Riding waves like that is to feel what its like to be a God for a moment, invincible even though you know you are not. What chargers!

Surfing in those conditions is one of the most radical things in sports, in anything. Billy Kemper, unreal, and how about Laura Enever, wow, takes legendary beatdowns and comes back for killer rides. Stoked just to hear these guys after, they're stunned, in bliss. Epic video, great photography.

Tim, I am now 67 and whilst my body is a bit screwed and cant surf any more my 2 boys do. I am and always will be a surfer in spirit, but only watch, dream and remember now. Mother ocean certainly smiled on all the guys in the water including you. I have never seen such an amazing session ever at this size!

@sweetiepienumber1 3 месяца назад

67 here with disabling arthritis. I was lucky through surfing the South Pacific in my youth.

@beauchamp1763 3 месяца назад

Me too, I'm in my 60's and have a fucked back due to working in the oil field and started surfing when I was 9 years old, I've had to stop surfing bigger waves and now have a 10 foot mal and occasionally get out there and relive my youth but in two to three foot surf. As long as you keep moving the body will get through it, stop and you seize up like a rusty ol gate. Keep moving forward my chiropractor tells me. I also have a kayak and that keeps me moving too. Stay young, coz old ain't fun.😂

@chrisculley3756 3 месяца назад

What a freaking day. I watched the Nathan Florence's video of this day and it was just incredible as is this one. It honest to God looks like a painting it's just a perfect wave Cloud break is amazing pretty much always but with that blue water and that perfect wave and you throw some sides to it it's just becomes Epic. I don't think I ever heard so many" oh my gods" being said in a video in my life. RLTW 3/75

@libertyblack715 Месяц назад

I like the painting analogy. I was thinking like a moving painting and the artist didn't even bother painting clouds. Didn't need them.

I was sitting on the lounge watching this and whooping, ducking, cringing and just gobsmacked. That was the best footage and record of a special special day. The best surfers in the world just holding edges and almost all going quite strait shows how they make it look easy on such crucial friggen’ 20 foot magic. Thankyou Tim !!

@dave9351 3 месяца назад

Stunning... is all I can conjure up, but for those who have never surfed Tavarua, the reef at Cloud Break is flat with channels carved into it from water running off it. Restaurants, you sit at the bar and watch (wave directly in front of the Island, hence "Restaurants"), has some of the nastiest coral you never want to deal with... Low tide Restaurants can be ugly if you fall. Great memories of Dave & Jenny Clark when they ran the island ! BULA RIP Druku, you were one amazing Fijian ! Reading some of the comments about the "music"... turn your audio off fools, no reason to diss this ?

WEll I hear "yuo can drive a truck thru it" for decades but now i saw that as a possibility. I also wonder if deep in some of their hearts they wished they would of paddled 300 or more past and get that first PIT section before the shoulder drop in area? I can dream and thanks to you my visions of heaven are REAL.

@markthomson7478 2 месяца назад

I only ever had 'Cloudies' twice in my life---(Too addicted to D/Pnt and G-Land in Indo' I guess! but--One of those two sessions was one I'll take to my grave as being in my TOP 10 ever! A Beautiful place, Epically proportioned Reef and to see it like this, in this Stunning footage (Thanks Tim!!---You Bloody Legend you!) with barely a drop of water out of place is VERY, VERY, Special. If you don't have this spot on your bucket list, put it on there -RIGHT -NOW!!.!!! 'Thommo' Auckland. NZ.

@user-vi7go1dt4i 3 месяца назад

I was struck by the emotional maturity of these men and women who are chronologically quite young, you know? That says so much about what surfing is and what it can provide for young people in terms of mental health and spiritual centered-ness. You know, even the guys who ate shit the most were humble & balanced. And, to an individual they were right-sized after that session. Not the faintest whiff of puffiness or bragadosio. Hell, I am spiritually moved myself, just by their calmness and their show of decades of maturity & perspective. And I was in a different hemisphere watching on my phone! This is exactly why my very young neice & nephews will have surfboards, certainly before their 10th birthdays. It's like Kai Borg said in White Rhino, "it's good to be in awe of it. You know, God's creation, here and in effect".
