Robbie Maddison Rides Teahupoo on a Dirt Bike

There are somethings in the realm of feat, sport or adventure that truly defy convention. From wing suits diving through needle hole cliff faces to a pro surfer avoiding injury from a direct hit by a White shark. Now pro FMX athlete Robbie Maddison has brought his own version of envelope pushing to the masses via a DC Shoe-sponsored effort to tackle an unlikely compbiiotn. Not skiing on waves, not riding a snowmobile on the water, no this is all new and totally unexpected. Behold, Robbie Madison has successfully ridden his moto dirt bike on the ocean and on a wave. And not just any wave, but mutant Tahitian beast known as Teahupoo. There’s really not much more to say about this other than to say, watch and worship.

Here’s the story from DC:

DC presents Robbie “Maddo” Maddison’s “Pipe Dream,” giving the world a chance to witness history being made as Maddo rides his dirt bike on the powerful and iconic waves of Tahiti. From his helmet to motocross boots, Maddo was dressed for FMX when he took his dirt bike into the unchartered saltwater terrain of the Pacific Ocean in French Polynesia.

For nearly two years Robbie has been focused on making surfing on his motorbike a reality. His efforts paid off in Tahiti, where he rode the world famous waves at Teahupoo and Papara.
