so friggin awesome, the surfing right now is off the hook
That’s hard as fuck
Dude looks like a freakin super model to boot.
That guy concentrated all of Teahupoo’s Mana inside his body, and is getting ready for a fusion with his opponent. Perhaps a Kamehameha. Suspense
the surfing in this olympics is crazy
Surfing at the 2020 Olympics: oh, that’s cool
Surfing at the 2024 Olympics: HOLY CRAP THIS ROCKS
Thought this was a photo of someone that arrived through a space portal for a second. Is this guy tethered to his home dimension? Oh, it’s a surf board.
this is one of the hardest sports pictures I’ve ever seen
All hail the Aquaman!
He was such a badass. My husband and I were cheering so much in our living room that our toddler joined in without even knowing what was going on
Poseidon bout to surface to hang a hold medal on this dude
He is so cool.
This photo is so unbelievable!
Now that’s some serious air haha
Does anyone have a video of when this picture was taken?
We need a vid!

Still bummed for my boy Cleland Quiñones 🇲🇽
I thought J Christ was doing water sports for us?!
Photographer : ” How do I convince them that it wasn’t photoshopped?”
This is gonna be a photo shown for a long, long time

He scored a 9.9 on this wave.
Most people are less graceful just standing on ground posing like that. God damn!
A legendary sports picture. Bravo to the photographer
**Brazil’s Gabriel Medina** has advanced to the quarter-finals of Men’s Surfing. The 3x World Champion surfed his heat with complete commitment, ending the Olympic dreams of defending silver medalist, **Kanoa Igarashi of Japan.**
This was the highest single wave score of the competition to date. With Medina signaling to the judges ‘That was a 10!’. While some agreed, some did not, awarding him a 9.90.
He later backed it up with a 7.50. His total heat score of 17.40 was more than enough to beat Igarashi’s (JPN) two-wave result of 7.04.

Ridiculously photogenic man. Just funny to me his hair is in perfect form while in the air and soaked from SURFING
Grats, for the sport picture of the year.
If I was him that would be framed for the rest of my life
for when this gets to r/all, yes this is real.
This is it. The most epic photo of the Olympics. Doubt anyone can top that
