To say that Kai Lenny is pushing the limits in heavy surf conditions is an understatement these days. He’s doing things in the water no other human wants a part of. Free-fall drops in the meanest of sections, swooping turns and above the lip airs on monstrous waves all while switching between a ridiculous variety of wave riding craft (paddle-in, tow-in, hydrofoil, kiteboard, windsurf, and SUP to name a few). Along the way he’s been making a positive impact on the environment by partnering with organizations like Sustainable Coastlines Hawaii.
Lenny’s latest video release documents his unique and inspiring approach to one of the most harrowing waves on the planet. Click play below and watch the future of big wave surfing as it evolves:
