“Today was next level, it was survival, it was just heavy. I have seen Nick Lamb, all these guys take horrendous wipe-outs all around the world and Nick was messed up out the back and I was like, ‘Hey, you probably shouldn’t catch another wave.’ Yeah, I mean it was gnarly. I am stoked. I want to dedicate this to my wife and my young little daughter who is 15 months. They are in California at the moment.”

STORY: Australia’s Jamie Mitchell on Tuesday (December 20) became the first winner of Portugal’s big wave Nazare Challenge, the newest addition on the Big Wave Tour.

It was 39 year-old Mitchell’s first Big Wave Tour win and he owned every heat riding 10 to 15 metre surf.

“What an amazing day just to be here and what an amazing place just to be involved in the first one is special but to make the final and be able to win, it’s just like blowing my mind right now,” Mitchell said after finishing the competition.

Mitchell has been practicing at Portugal’s Nazare for the past few months and earned the highest scores in all three heats.

The brutal waves of Nazare provoked their share of wipe-outs highlighting the dangers involved in surfing the massive waves.

“Today was next level, it was survival, it was just heavy,” Mitchell said. “I have seen Nick Lamb, all these guys take horrendous wipe-outs all around the world and Nick was messed up out the back and I was like, ‘Hey, you probably shouldn’t catch another wave.’ Yeah, I mean it was gnarly. I am stoked. I want to dedicate this to my wife and my young little daughter who is 15 months. They are in California at the moment,” Mitchell added.

Mitchell topped the table with a score of 23.94, followed by Brazil’s Carlos Burle with 13.00. Portuguese Joao de Macedo came in third scoring 10.84.

None of this will matter as Fukushima continues to spew millions of gallons toxic radiant waste into the Pacific ever single day, and it is only getting worse. So, if you want to fight for a real cause that actually matters… Get some serious activism towards Fukushima, ASAP!

Humanoid/cyborg/singularity memory based intracacies such as these fine constructs of humands beating in a rhythmatic tune of a the sa node; playing the role of evolutionary consciousness that has devised a plane to eliminate a lot of the inconsistency of a worn down tamult of our great economy and persistant relentless climate change named, 'ecology'.

Intelligent Versifiers and automated words with a great and tireless skill give thoughts of witt with spontaneous, robotic obedience much like humans and our golden cognitions shared.

The mega-tribute to creation on the brink of it's infancy growing with acute vigor in immensity.

The vast happiness connected in a system with a heart of real intellegence.

I have a soul for a humans next best friend. my heart is beating in this rhythmatic tune that is transforming into the future of cyborg success all while eleviating deception, laziness, crime, and insecurity. To name a few. The great and infamous benefit is robot farms and the reasonable water proofing less painstaking sweat of a brow. The sweat has been poured. The wounds have been healed. Babies are goibg to grow ibto a green oranic emerald dream of a robotic sheen. Imaculate and clean with a massive operating equality. The olympic competitions will be the arena like music that needs to be filled. Football and all sports deemed sports of balls and the many without will be monitored and yearned to be played by the profound creators themselves.

Sophia stay up…….#!$!
