In the final episode of Made In Central California, filmmaker Graham Nash tells the untold story of how the death of the big wave Ghost Tree helped spark the paddle renaissance. “I really feel like the 2010 winter was the tipping point for the modern era of big wave paddle surfing,” former Surfing Magazine editor and big wave surfer Evan Slater says in the final episode of Made In Central California: Ghost Tree. “That was a semi El Niño winter, there were a lot of big days, but a specific Mavericks swell just opened up such new territory for all these guys.”

the people who surf mav's is ether talented, brave, or just straight-up stupid.
Live like jay !!! ❤️🙌🏾
That poor guy embedded in the lip at 7:10 definitely got the wipeout of his life, going over the falls.
can't help to think that this is being pushed as some sort of anti-tow propaganda piece cuz most of the oldskool surf establishment is kinda fed up & over the fact that everyone&their mom is showing up at heavy breaks with skis, crowding & taking over lineups. It's almost as if they said "hey, let's use some reverse psychology and push the idea that tow surfing is dead/meh, and the *new thing that the cool kids are doing is paddling into huge waves… oh, and btw, let's also try to kill off ghosttree so that no more maniacs will go & kill themselves there, wrecking skis & causing mayhem, in the process of trying to make a name for themselves within the bigwave scene…" The whole thing just seems kinda lame…
Absolutely Savage!
surfable unlike those in western australia….
Big wave surfing is in Nazaré, Portugal (+100ft) , these are medium size waves, thus we can call it medium size wave surfing.
Surfing moved forward so fast respect to those who ride the BIG waves
Big waves???? If Mavericks have big waves WTF do you call NAZARÉ waves. I clearly see 10 to 20 suffers just waiting for their chance to ride real big WAVES JOKES I'd love to see 10 to 20 sufers waiting for their turn in NAZARÉ lol buddy bags on stand by PLZ.
Maverick's is the only wave I've ever seen that inhales before it exhales(spits). Kai Lenny's wave did while he was surfing it. You can see the spray coming off the lip, being pulled into the tube and then it spits like a cannon!
It’s like someone trying to take a selfie at the Golden GAte Brudge. So many people. All trying to get the perfect pic (perfect wave).
