Justine Dupont Rides the Biggest Wave of Her Life at Nazaré | Praia do Norte, November 13, 2019

Justine Dupont may have broken the Guinness World Record for the biggest wave ever surfed by a female athlete.

On November 13, 2019, the 28-year-old French big wave surfer dropped into a massive wall of water that is estimated to measure between 65 and 68 feet.

“I’m so stoked I made it. It’s a mad, intense wave. It was the greatest ride of my life,” expressed Dupont.

Justine won the 2019 Women’s XXL Performance of the Year Award and Biggest Wave Award, and the 2018 European longboard title.

The surfer from Bordeaux has also been elected Chair of the ISA Athletes’ Commission for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.

Maya Gabeira holds the current Guinness World Record for the largest wave ever surfed by a female athlete.

On January 18, 2018, the Brazilian daredevil rode a 68-foot (20.72 meters) wave, also in Nazaré, Portugal.
