It's been a long ten days. Hell, it's been a long six months. But when word came to the Tip2Tip brain trust that a remote Indonesian tidal bore would be turning out its best deluge of waves in 19 years, we knew we had to keep searching...

And when the 15-man crew - led by Dean Brady, Bruno Santos, Tyler Larronde, Oney Anwar, and original Searcher Tom Curren - returned from the jungle late last month, it was clear that our patience had paid off and that this footage had to get out to you double quick. Ten days after the mesmerizing trailer (cut to the hypnotic "Love Like A Sunset" by Phoenix) dropped to the tune of nearly a quarter of a million views, the wait is over.... and the Seven Ghosts are revealed.

Tidal Fantasy

The footage you've been waiting for... When the first pulses of the tidal bore showed, Bruno Santos, Dean Brady, Tyler Larronde, Oney Anwar, and original Searcher Tom Curren were there to greet the chocolate barrels of the Seven Ghosts. Witness the greatest river bore tubes ever surfed.

The "Bono"

Bruno Santos, Dean Brady, Tyler Larronde, Oney Anwar and Tom Curren take us through the moments leading up to surfing the Seven Ghosts and the momentous barrels that ensued. It was an experience they'll never forget.

It Is True

The rumors, the myth, the legend... the danger. When the Rip Curl Search crew showed up to surf what could be the greatest river bore waves on the planet, they expected nothing and everything. And it all came true... Here is the behind-the-scenes crew reliving their most harrowing moments on the river.

Rip Curl - Tip 2 Tip is a 6-month quest on the Infinite Search, stretching from one end of the Indonesia Archipelago to the other. It's a journey about discovery, adventure, adversity and the people who share the laughs along the way. From perfect waves to unlocked mysteries, feral pirates to cabin fever, this voyage promises it all - minus a final destination.
