It’s On: 2

The famous Teahupoo wave, nicknamed “the perfect wave”, was more biting than ever in 2019. In August 2019, mountains of water felt on the coral reef like. In tow-in, towed by jet skis, local surfers tried and succeeded what seemed impossible. Braves or dauntless? Both! As told by seasoned Tahitians like Kévin Bourez, Matahi Drollet, Kauli Vaast or Ariihoe Tefaafana. They tell about this unique experience, their fear and their pride to have faced heights never equaled. The Polynesians have proven that they are the best, that the Teahupoo wave is “made for them”. Unforgettable images, interviews, testimonies… It’s on II is punctuated by short sequences commented by Tina Chaulet, the presenter of Waaaaves, a weekly program devoted to “everything that glides on the waves”, broadcast on the local channel TNTV (Tahiti Nui Television). It has become an unmissable event for riders, lovers of beautiful images or simply those who love the beauty of the Pacific Islands. It’s on II reveals surfing in Tahiti like you’ve never seen it before, with sensitive testimonies of these wave gods. No need to be interested in surfing to appreciate images as spectacular in terms of performance as in raw beauty. The chills and the dream are there. A wave of pleasure for the eyes. A wave of emotion with these “aito” (heroes in Tahitian) of sliding, who share a part of the Polynesian culture.
