It’s a while since we’ve been totally mesmerised by a single wave at Skeleton Bay.
There have been good edits dribbling in ever since the wave burst into the public consciousness back in 2008, but nothing has ever matched up to that POV clip of Koa, surfing through an outrageously wide sheet glass tunnel.

According to the drone pilot Koa travelled is 1.5km, which puts his average speed at 28mph. Hit play and enjoy the wave as seen from both sky and Koa’s mouth:
