Professional Dirt Biker Goes For The Wave On The Open Ocean

Robbie Maddison and DC Shoes teamed up to fulfill the stunt rider's pipe dream: riding a motorcycle while surfing on the water. Here are the best scenes from the insane stunt that is blowing up the Internet.

This is Robbie Maddison.

‘Maddo’ is a motorbike stunt rider from Australia. He’s done a lot of crazy things on dirt bikes, like jumping over the Arc de Triompe in Paris and back-flipping across the London Bridge. Maddison is basically our generation’s Evil Knievel. He’s broken the world motorcycle jumping record three times, and two of those times he beat his own record. Now Robbie has decided to try another crazy “pipe dream” stunt.

These tires allow him to bike…

Those are interesting. Are those for extra traction? And what’s with that base board?

on land…

Dude, there’s water in front of you. You’re gonna stop right? RIGHT?!

and on water.

Oh right, HE CAN BIKE ON WATER!

This dirt bike is the Jesus of all dirt bikes.

Whoever designed this bike must have been blessed with divine, supernatural abilities. It’s just gracefully cutting through the water.

That’s not a boat.

Then we cut to an aerial view of the ocean and Maddison drives by like he’s driving a speed boat, making you realize once again just how crazy this whole stunt is.

Casually driving by a team of rowers.

It just hit these rowers that there’s a better way to travel the open seas… and that happens to be by dirt bike.

Wait… those are surfers… is he going to try surf-biking?

Those normal, boring surfers are about to witness something exciting.

Yeah, he went for it.

Effortlessly, Robbie Maddison picks up a perfect wave after dramatically driving by all of those surfing posers.

Here’s another epic shot of him casually surfing.

“Oh it’s no big deal. I’m just out here, riding waves whenever they happen. Totally chill.”

The locals are definitely WTFing.

These people are probably thinking they’re going crazy. Seriously, you don’t see a dirt bike drive by while you’re paddle boarding every day. Nobody’s going to believe your crazy story.

Then we cut to this giant wave and think, “there is no way!”

Guess what… yes way.

Maddison just guns it and goes for another perfect (but much larger) wave.

He’s gonna wipe out! That wave is going to take him and his Jesus bike down to the depths of the ocean!

Then he miraculously appears out of the ocean spray.

Just when you think he’s a goner, he materializes through the hazy mist of the once giant wave, in the most epic way imaginable. Way to go, Robbie Maddison. You’ve proved not only that science is fake and magic is real, but also that your best dreams, even your pipe dreams, can become a reality. You can check out the full video here.
