Watch: Throwback Thursday at Teahupo'o as Shiseido Tahiti Pro Wraps

Jack Robinson took first place in the Shieseido Tahiti Pro yesterday, confirming that Nathan Florence has solid intuition after he predicted Robinson taking the win.

For Robinson, he won a slot in the WSL Final Five, cancelling Gabriel Medina's shot at a fourth World Title.

Last week, we reported the dismal surf report on the horizon for the contest and Mother Nature stayed true to it. So we decided to give you an oldie but goody featuring Teahupo'o in full force.

Nalu.TV captioned the film above:

"Segment from Fluid Combustion 2K: Pits In Paradise, a Larry Haynes Film. Tahiti Pro 2000 filmed by the legendary Larry Haynes."

"The chargers of the new millennium bust out the moves in the sickest pits ever, from the hardest Carving to the gnarliest drops & insane wipeouts..."

The clip features just under five minutes of footage from the Gotcha Tahiti Pro at Teahupo'o in 1999 and 2000. Naturally, it features the top surfers of the time like Andy Irons, Bruce Irons, and Kelly Slater. The edit offers lots big bombs, some epic underwater and POV shots, and most importantly, lots of big barrels.

The film was shot by iconic and beloved surf cinematographer Larry Haynes. He tragically passed away in February of this year, from a reported heart attack, just minutes after surfing Laniakea on the North Shore of Oahu.

In a 2011 Surfer article, Rob Gilley wrote:

"Originally from Central California, Larry moved to Hawaii decades ago and never looked back. On every major swell for over 20 years, he has been swimming with a heavy water-housed movie camera in the heaviest conditions. And he does so with a refreshingly positive attitude and a huge smile on his face."
