Surfing Teahupoo Tahiti

Filmed by Ashley Gasper in Tahiti in July 2015, this is some of the most incredible filming of big wave surfing I've seen.

How the surfer gets through the wave at 2:20 is amazing. Surfing in the video is by Raimana, Matahi Drollet, Niccolo Porcella, Matehau Tetopata, Oliver Kurtz, Russell Bierke and more.

Drone film work is becoming so common these days - I like it when you stop noticing its filmed by a drone, things like sudden panning or catching the shadow of the drone tend to spoil it a bit. There are a few moments in this film where you can see its by a drone but its still great footage.
