Yeah, its a fake although the guy did generally surf the wave (think it was Waimea) but it was cut into film of a hurricane.

It's a real wave at waimea, but just cut into the scene.

It's funny though, the wind would be heavy onshore if it was a hurricane, but the spray from the wave means it must be offshore or light winds?!?!
