The surf world has been waiting and now the wait is over; some of the biggest, scariest waves seen at Tahiti's infamous Teahupo'o have been tackled on Saturday, August 27 by an elite crew of tow-surf specialists.

With the 'swell of the decade' hitting the dangerous Teahupoo reef, nothing was going to stop the tow-in aficionados who tracked the swell and flew in from all corners of the globe to ride it. With four-to-five metre waves slamming onto Teahupo'o's dangerously shallow reef, surfing's elite put their lives on the line as they chased the ultimate thrill.

Elite crew of tow-surf specialists : Dylan Longbottom, Laurie Towner, Dean Bowen, Koby Abberton, Dean Morrison, Benjamin Sanchis, Kamelai Alexander, Nathan Fletcher, Bruce Irons and Kalanai Chapman.
