Any surfer getting barreled at Teahupo’o can make for iconic imagery. At its most gnarly, the wave at the end of the road is giant, square, and all that water lands on very shallow reef. Which makes this 16-second clip of Matahi Drollet getting barreled on his foil there all the more mind bending. Now, detractors will do what they do (watch it happen in the comments below), but there is no denying the difficulty of this endeavor. See more of Matahi, even deeper, on his Instagram, below.
