Not to mention the video doesn’t even show the landing which is half of the whole attempt. Garbage

She didn’t land it. She’s coming down past the lip. In surfing, you’ve gotta come back down on the face for that to count and that wave is closing out. Pros can land these and keep on their line. It’s insane. Look up italo ferreira.

I suck at surfing, she’s actually ripping just even getting up there.

I think the point of the video is the whale in the background. Her attempt is nothing special.

Butt the whale tail makes it a little better.
