Watch Koa Rothman on Biggest Surf Swell of Year

Of course the year just started, but still...

Koa Rothman is a world-class surfer who chases big waves. “The biggest swell of the year has hit and Pipleine is as big as it gets,” he said after posting the video below.

“I got one of the best waves of my life. I also cut my shin open but everything is OK. I can’t imagine a better way to bring in the new year than by getting barreled at Pipe. I’m excited for this new decade.”
