The Eddie Aikau Big Wave Invitational had tons of incredible rides. And even more wipeouts. With consistent swell and waves that reached the 50-foot mark, the Pacific Ocean delivered an insane amount of energy to the North Shore of Oahu last weekend. While it’s fun to watch the waves the surfers made, it’s equally as fun to watch the waves they didn’t. Because who doesn’t love a good wipeout reel? Sit back, relax, and cringe at the many wipeouts from the Eddie.
