OK So it isn’t SUP, but it has to be the most compelling film you will watch all week, and it has massive Jaws swell in it! Aaron Gold is a legendary waterman who in the same year caught the biggest paddle wave ever ridden, then died at massive Cloudbreak, only to be brought back to life by the rescue team and his buddies. This is just an amazing story, and you need to watch it!
“The last year has been an incredible roller coaster ride for Hawaii’s Aaron Gold. Up until last January few outside of his tight-knit big-wave community knew of him. January 15, he made his name known when he stroked into one of the biggest monsters of the day at Jaws. Four months later Gold was the victim of a life-threatening wipeout at Cloudbreak. The details of that day were slow to emerge, until now.” – World Surf League
