Teahupoo

Teahupoo is located of the coast of tahiti, and is known for being the worlds heaviest wave. Surfers travel from all over the world to tackle this amazing feat, however if a rider doesn't have the necessary skills, he probable wont be returning from this one of a kind break.

Teahupoo is a 15 minute paddle from land, and has claimed the lives of many. It is a hallow reef break that is constantly closing out, making this the most difficult wave to ride as well as the most perfect barrel anyone has ever seen. This wave can range anywhere from double overhead to quadruple overhead. Typically only the best of the best have surfed this wave, but there are still a number of locals that are crazy enough to charge it.

In its area of tahiti, teahupoo is completely undeveloped, which means no sky-risers or fast food restaurants here. The locals have fought to keep this spot natural and beautiful, and this spot will continue to be a hidden mystery for many years to come.
