Surfing Epic XL Pipeline (2025) 4K HDR

Bazai Pipeline, on the North Shore of Oahu, is the most photographed wave in the world. From its sheer natural beauty to all the action that surrounds it in the Winter, it's one of the most exciting waves to watch especially when the conditions are near perfect. This high quality HDR video shows you three days at Pipe full of excitement, carnage, and beauty. Enjoy the beautiful surf and scenery of Hawaii 🌊🏄🏽🏄‍♀️🌅.

Mahalo, we really appreciate it 🙏🏾





HDR Warning: You don't need to buy a 3 thousand dollar OLED TV to view this video but please check to make sure your TV model supports HDR; otherwise, this footage will appear blown out with overexposed whites with older or cheaper TV models 📺.







Music:

This video features plenty of raw footage with natural sounds; however, there are sections of the video where we implement music with clips that have no sound to begin with because they were shot in 4k 120 fps slow motion and sped up for the video. Please do not complain to us about using music in our surf edits, this is our style of making surf videos and if you only want to watch raw surf clips, please check out other surf channels like off da lip, surf Kawela, Surfers of Hawaii, Oahu Surf Films, or plenty of other surf channels on YouTube that don't use music in their edits, Mahalo 🤙🏾

Time Stamps

Note: Keep in mind some surfers may re-appear again and again through out the video. If we missed someone pls leave the name and time stamp in the comments so the surfer could be updated in this description 🙏🏾.

Tidal Movements: Harnessing Ocean Currents and Lunar Forces for Sustainable Energy and Shoreline Protection

Understanding Tidal Movements and Their Origins

At the heart of tidal movements are the gravitational forces exerted by the moon and the sun, coupled with the Earth's rotation. These forces create predictable patterns of rising and falling sea levels known as tides. Understanding the mechanics behind tides and how they interact with ocean currents is essential for harnessing their potential as a sustainable energy source.

The Role of Lunar Gravity in Shaping Tidal Patterns

The moon's gravity plays a pivotal role in generating tidal forces. As the moon orbits the Earth, its gravitational pull creates bulges in the ocean's surface, resulting in high tides. Conversely, areas perpendicular to these bulges experience low tides. This cyclical process influences sea levels and drives the movement of ocean currents, forming the foundation for tidal energy generation.

Ocean Currents: The Movers of Tidal Energy

Ocean currents are continuous, directed movements of seawater generated by various factors, including wind, salinity, and temperature differences. These currents are integral to the distribution of marine life and nutrients. When combined with tidal forces, ocean currents create dynamic environments ripe for tidal energy extraction. By strategically placing turbines in these high-current areas, we can capture kinetic energy to produce clean electricity.

Sea Level and Its Impact on Coastal Communities

Rising sea levels, a consequence of climate change and thermal expansion, pose significant threats to coastal communities. Elevated sea levels exacerbate coastal erosion, increasing vulnerability to storms and flooding. Implementing tidal energy solutions not only provides sustainable power but also contributes to coastal protection by mitigating erosion through controlled water movement.

Combating Coastal Erosion with Sustainable Practices

Coastal erosion undermines infrastructure, natural habitats, and economies. Sustainable practices, such as restoring mangroves and constructing seawalls, can help counteract erosion. Integrating tidal energy projects with these initiatives offers a dual benefit: generating renewable energy while reinforcing coastal defenses against the relentless forces of nature.

The Promise of Tidal Energy for a Sustainable Future

Tidal energy stands out as a reliable and predictable form of renewable energy. Unlike wind or solar power, tides follow consistent schedules influenced by lunar cycles, ensuring a stable energy supply. Investing in tidal energy infrastructure not only reduces our dependence on fossil fuels but also paves the way for a greener, more resilient energy landscape.

Real-World Success Stories and Future Prospects

Countries like the United Kingdom and South Korea are leading the charge in tidal energy innovation, demonstrating successful implementations and significant energy outputs. These success stories highlight the viability and scalability of tidal energy projects. Looking forward, advancements in turbine technology and energy storage solutions promise to enhance the efficiency and economic feasibility of tidal energy, making it a cornerstone of global sustainability efforts.

Conclusion: Embracing Tidal Movements for a Better Tomorrow

Harnessing tidal movements offers a unique opportunity to tap into the Earth's natural rhythms for sustainable energy and coastal protection. By understanding and leveraging the intricate dance between tides, ocean currents, and lunar forces, we can create a harmonious balance between human needs and environmental stewardship. Embracing tidal energy not only addresses current energy challenges but also safeguards our shorelines for future generations.
