This is the story of Teahupoo as seen through the eyes of internationally-renowned photographer, Tim McKenna. The wave named after “the village at the end of the road” on the island of Tahiti has become the centre of the surfing world since its recognition as the planet’s most beautiful and most dangerous. In his book “Teahupoo, Tahiti’s Mythical Wave ”, Tim McKenna shares with the reader ten years of his photographic archives devoted to the danger and beauty of this fascinating wave - ten years of perfect waves, competitions, triumphs and dramas, human adventures and superhuman exploits, as recounted by the athletes themselves: Laird Hamilton, Andy Irons, Kelly Slater, Shane Dorian, Manoa Drollet, Raimana Van Bastolaer, Vetea David, Malik Joyeux, Robert Teriitehau, Jason Polakow, Mike Stewart.
