Just as the world’s biggest surfing event — the U.S. Open of Surfing in Huntington Beach, CA — was in full swing, AI Tonia made a massive digital splash with a stunning surfer video that quickly went viral.
Dropping her hyper-realistic surfer reel on Instagram at the same time as the live event, AI Tonia’s video captured the imagination of millions — racking up over 3.8 million views in just a few days on her first reel and 3.2 million views on her 2nd surfing reel. Both can be seen on Tonia Ryan’s official Instagram, @realtoniaryan.
Meanwhile, the real Tonia Ryan was on the ground at Huntington Beach, creating exclusive content for brands, networking with media, and soaking up the vibrant energy of the event. This dual presence — real and AI — created a buzz unlike anything seen before.
The video itself is a flawless blend of cinematic AI artistry and authentic coastal vibes, showing AI Tonia effortlessly carving the digital waves with sun-kissed skin, wet hair and undeniable California cool. Fans flooded the comments, amazed at how lifelike the AI creation looked.
Tonia Ryan, a trailblazer in luxury branding and digital innovation, says the project isn’t just about visuals — it’s about pushing boundaries.
“Having AI Tonia drop a video during the U.S. Open while I was actually there brought a whole new dimension to storytelling. It’s about blending reality with imagination and showing what’s possible with AI.”
With this viral moment, AI Tonia is riding the wave of future-forward creativity — and the world is watching.
