Drone Footage Illustrates Exactly What It’s Like to be Caught Inside at Waimea Bay

The North Shore has been experiencing quite a run of swell of late. Things have been going off, to say the least. When the waves do get larger than expected, all the spots pump, of course. And surfers riding extra large boards eventually find their way to Waimea Bay, the original big-wave surf spot. No matter who you are, Waimea can still hand out a beating. Getting caught inside there is no fun, as this drone footage illustrates. The footage comes thanks to the YouTube channel, Where’s Your Board. We’re pretty sure some of these surfers were asking themselves that same question after enduring sets like that last one at the 1:30 mark.
