When Wade Goodall started Creative Destruction, he immediately stood out from other freesurf pros who realised a video blog was a great way to boost their profile. Creative Destruction is a cut above thanks to a few factors like Wade being interesting and funny, a great surfer to watch, and having Runamuk Visuals on side. But this new episode goes above and beyond, thanks to a totally different factor.

Since it torpedoed into surfing’s consciousness on a 2005 ASL cover that asked if it was the world’s most perfect wave, we’ve seen a LOT of photos and footage from P-Pass. If that reef off a tiny speck of an island in the Pacific isn’t the world’s most perfect, then, at very least, it’s one of the surf world’s best photo studios.

Of all the trips I’ve organised and photos I’ve seen from Pohnpei, the waves that Wade, Taj, Dusty Payne and their mates scored on this trip are far and away the best. If you saw the swell Shane Dorian and Mark Mathews got a few years back – this is better.

Perfect winds and a perfect angle for this reef show exactly why the surf media gets so worked up about P-Pass. When Taj says, as he does at the end of this clip, that it’s pretty much a perfect wave, he ain’t wrong.

I mean, you’d pretty much cut off a nut to surf barrels like this.

… and the concept with Wade’s mate on guitar is sick, too. Five stars. Margaret?
