Yes, a lot of surf content in the world, but this production is a cut above. Had me locked in for 33 minutes. Kai is an elite talent/athlete. He deserves an elite film, he certainly got it. Well done Reb Bull.
Not only is he a top notch athlete , he is a super top notch human helping Maui locals after the fire. Mahalo nui!!
Way more of a team sport than most of us realize. Nice work safety teams and production teams as well!
💯 big wave surfing is made possible by the incredible support system these guys and girls have built. Speaking of teamwork, here's a cool edit featuring Kai and Chumbo's tow partnership at Nazaré: kzhead.info/sun/nd5yl6mGqmWkpGg/bejne.html

Kai is such a humble dude - honestly no matter about win or defeat, he will continuously be the legend of all time
Humble? Lool
@@victorkalbskopf "it's perfect out there and I'm going to be stellar"... I had to turn it off
@@sssamcz that's confidence mate, your comment just showed how insecure you are with yourself. Be well
@@ns307 i think you oughta look up what humility means...
@@sssamcz I think you need to look up what confidence means.
That awkward moment @27:17 when Kai's girlfriend tries to high five momma Lenny. Lol
Hilarious, good eye!
Kook
@StaySuerte she got her kookness from Kai. Das what naturally happens when u wit da surfers lol
How much advertisement should we put? Red Bull: Yes
sorry
@@RedBullSurfing don't do it again please?
@@TheTranquilwater Yes, so? I am not talking about the advertisement IN the video.
@@RedBullSurfing an ad every 4 minutes is diabolical.
I didnt see a single ad thanks to Brave web browser ; )
This doc had been suggested to me for weeks but I finally clicked it. This is by far my new favorite documentary!
I see you have good taste my guy
The same
5:56 Just sayin... The drop, the editing... insane, man.
Red Bull™️ has some of the best short films. Don’t be afraid to make _longer_ films because your production, quality, and efforts are absolutely amazing. Hands down one of the better films on KZhead™️. Thanks to the *team* for making this.
Before even watching this (I've probably seen a large portion of the waves ridden, I'm a fan) big thanks to Red Bull for sponsoring Kai, Jamie O' Brien, Mark Mathews, and the others. This works. When I feel like drinking that energy drink shit, I grab a Red Bull over the others, cause it tastes ok, and cause you sponsor Kai and JOB. Crazy, right? Most people probably do it unconsciously, just want to feel that whatever, connection. But some of us are fans of the company cause of what you make possible for these bros to do, lifestyle-wise.
Yep me too. I watch too many surfing videos.
Make them sponsor Laurie Towner
If you die tonight, do you know where you're going? Did you know that Jesus Christ is the only way to Heaven and He loves you? Through Him, God offers you a FREE gift - forgiveness. All you need to do is repent, turn away from your sins and evil ways, from now on put your faith completely in Jesus Christ and be obedient to Him. Explanation: God doesn’t want anybody in hell because He loves us, but you must understand why we deserve hell and why those who refuse to live under His authority will go there. (Matthew 12:30) ''Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters.'' He gave us the law (Ten Commandments) not to make us righteouss, but rather to show us our sin (Romans 3:20). God gave us free will and since Adam sinned in the garden, sin is the nature of our flesh and we’ve all sinned. (Romans 3:23) and the law demands death to those who sin (Romans 6:23). For someone to be justified before God they have to be sinless, that's why everyone need Jesus Christ. None of us are good in God’s eyes, because for God good means moral perfection. We all have broken God’s commandments, we all have sinned in our lives so none of us are good. ‘’For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it.’’ (James 2:10). ‘’For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.’’ (John 3:16) That’s why only Jesus can save us, because He lived a perfect and sinless life and is the only worthy sacrifice and died for our sins. We aren’t saved based on our good deeds/works, but only by the grace of God through faith. ''For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9) He said ‘’it is finished’’ (John 19:30), which means He paid the fine for our sins (past, present, future) to be forgiven if we repent and trust in Him. ‘’Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord.’’ (Acts 3:19) Biblically, a person who repents does not continue willfully in sin. Repentance is a turning from sin, and it always results in changed behavior (Luke 3:8). While sorrow from sin is not equivalent to repentance, it is certainly an element of scriptural repentance (2 Corinthians 7:10). Do not play a hypocrite. (John 3:3) Jesus replied, "Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again." If you confess that Jesus is Lord (John 10:30) and believe that God raised Him from the dead, then you’ll be saved. (Romans 10:9) When you believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession-to the praise of His glory. (Ephesians 1:13-14) You are born again with the spirit of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17). Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. (John 3:36) We are living in the last days and Jesus Christ will return soon. Get right with God and start your relationship with Jesus Christ right now before it’s too late, because there’s not much time left!. "But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.’’ (Mark 13:32) You may start with a simple prayer from the bottom of your heart, TRULY believing that God listens and cares. (Jeremiah 29:13) ''You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.'' Get to know Christ through His word. At first I recommend reading Gospel of John and book of Romans. God bless you!
The future of big wave surfing is in great hands, you will break the mold of watermen. God Speed, young man!

Quote at the beginning: ‘We’re going to follow Kai around the world for a year’ Actual video: Peahi ‘Jaws’ contest
Awesome. Thanks for taking us along for the ride Kai Lenny!
@Pieter Kops 🙌 🙌 Here's a great interview with Kai about the film: www.redbull.com/int-en/kai-lenny-life-of-kai
This young man is a legend ! Such an inspiration for me. In my island, I never do that but Kai makes me dream a lot about that. Thank you for your energy man!
21:55 - DD sitting incognito on the back of the ski is like Stan Lee showing up in a Marvel movie. That's the dude who gave Peahi it's name of JAWS
That was Incredible, Go KAI !!
I’d love to just watch a Big Wave surf competition someday. These guys are literally from a different planet 😆, absolutely awesomely insane!
How is this free content
I know
Because Red Bull own 'extreme' sport. Good and bad.
is not free!!!
were hooking him up! god hes good!
Cause red bull is good
Chills the whole time!! Amazing series 👏🏼
I wish you the the best Kai!!! Great stuff man!!!
The drama and excitement of the footage and Kai's story is so dope so staggeringly awesome. Surfing with a foil should be interesting.
oh yeah, he's going big with the foil ... have you seen this one from the recent swell at Nazaré: kzhead.info/sun/d7aAlL6Cr4yvfXk/bejne.html
Kai is only 28 and is already a legend.
Kai is so focused and ambitious. There can be no other outcome than what he has set his mind to and he has all the support from family and friends to achieve it. Loved the video, so inspiring. Much admiration (South Africa).
Dude you got nothing to complain about. You are a very blessed man!
He is never complaint about etc...! He have good life, but does not mean he is good inside out! He and his family working on that dream! He is taking life to this game!
🤔
Can’t believe how amazing this is!

Thank you Kai for all your help with the ohanas suffering from the Maui fires. I love you and all your peoples. ❤❤❤
As awesome as you are to being a top knotch surfer ( and you are) I am so proud of you for charging into helping Maui locals. ❤
You've come a long way Kai, but if you wish to be a complete waterman please take an EMT course so you can treat yourself and others properly. Also, I know you want to win but keep in mind the words of Skip Frye when he answered the question, "Whose the best surfer in the water? The one having the most fun"! Shine bright amigo! We are watching! Hasta, markos
Red bull surfing deserves more recognition. I literally had to search for these gem 💎 videos. Please promote the surfing sport more Red Bull. 🤗🤗🤗

At 43 today, this was my first ever watch of a surf comp and wow what a story 👏 you will be champ 🏆 👏 👍
Amazing !!!
Best documentary ever
YA BOYZZZ! KAI IS LIVIN THE BEST LIFE! Those of us that have surfed and have been fortunate enough to travel and follow the waves just to surf and see the world from the water can relate to Kai life in the ocean. I learned by. Starting out on a McDonald's tray. I have been lucky enough to surf some beautiful places. From The North Shore, the South Shore spots, Australia, NZ, Japan, Guam, all over Cali, all over the East Coast, Nags Head , Virginia, the East Coast of Florida and I live in Clearwater Beach Florida. At times I was more comfortable in the water around other like minded people. I miss it so bad most days. Ive had cancer 5× and my abilities have fallen off big time. But watching Kai gives me that Hau'oli oli Ko' u ' uhane. Ya boy much Aloha and Mahalo for waking up some ho' omana 'o maikaa'i. 🏄🏼♂️🤙🌊
Damn this is THE comment of the thread. Much love to you @SUGE WHITE Jacoby. You don't have to stand up to continue enjoying the ocean... just jumping in, getting wet, bodysurfing a few, that's some true therapy too. Mahalo 👊
@@RedBullSurfing Thank you for the kind words and positive vibe. Unfortunately I was in Hospice 5 yrs ago and my landlord after nor hearing from me for over 2 months, he just opened my doors and let people come in a steal all my things including my 9'6 T&C that I picked used. I lost my job my truck, my board. Ive been trying to save for a paddle board but living on disability ($1000) and my mom just passed 2 weeks ago so what little money I did have is . Im sorry to put my business out there like this but Im so sad , Im sorry Im just being a bitch. I should try a live what life I have left to fullest and RedBull gives me wings! Thank you again for the kind words and vibes, much Aloha. Mahalo my friend!🏄🏼♂️🤙🌊
stay strong, we're pulling for you!!
@@RedBullSurfing Very true
Kai you are the best surfer in the planet. I can’t wait to see you surf in Morocco. Good luck.
@H A consider this the official petition to get Kai to Morocco! Here's the rest of the series ICYMI: www.redbull.com/int-en/shows/life-of-kai

27:15 - That high five recovery killed me.
“He’s building a house 🤪” Not corny at all
@@upsidedahead What does that mean? is it a saying?
Where can we find the credits for the soundtrack/music in this video?
Same thing I’m saying
mind blowing!

@@RedBullSurfing okay
Hes gonna win! He will be the champ with his work ethic for sure!
You know I posted an ignorant comment on the wipe out you had about a week ago about it not being worth risking your life. I was way wrong because I hadn't realized the amount of preparation and training and years you put into this sport. Much respect and my apologies. Grab the ring Kai.
AMAZING
Sick!
It's so makeable , Legendary
Good vibes bro that’s raw. Best wishes.
Good boat, CG 25'! Perfect
