The pro surfers on Insta were all going mental. Sharing each and every wave on their own accounts

Hoping to watch a bit more later on replay.

The Matthews wipe out is insane.... He has the wave posted on his Instagram (as well as the damage report!!). The drop is unreal.

As someone else said, kudos for paddling back out after a wipe out.

That wind was just diabolical.

Thanks for the heads up Ted.

Leg ropes helps them find the bodies after the wave has passed

Haha, thought they might have been using the boards as floatation devices

some of those boards looked to be lethal weapons the way they were flying around .

even looked to be a drop in on one wave

, wonder if they penalised him.
