Biggest Wave Ever Surfed

The Aquapac Keymaster is a pocket-sized submersible waterproof case for keeping small but vital essentials protected and on your person. The reason it’s called the Keymaster is that it was originally designed for electronic key fobs. Lots of customers wrote in saying that they had to leave their car key on their wheel when they went paddling or surfing, and couldn’t we make something so they could take it with them? So that’s what we did! It’ll also take care of your credit cards, hotel room key, and a little cash. And if you’re one of the increasing number of people suffering from asthma, it just happens to be the right size for most inhalers. The Keymaster is made of a thin but remarkably tough material called TPU and is incredibly light (only 1 ounce / 31 grams including the lanyard). The seams are high-frequency welded to form a super-strong bond. It also protects from dust, dirt and sand. And finally, like most Aquapac cases, it’ll float if you drop it in the drink! ABOUT AQUAPAC: – Aquapac has been making waterproof cases since 1983 and has won the Queen’s Award for Enterprise 3 times. We’re based in London, but our products are to be found on every continent. The vast majority are made in the UK. People are trusting their valuables to our waterproofing, so it’s absolutely crucial that our manufacturing is of the very highest quality.

Big wave surfing is the ultimate celebration of extreme surfing. Challenging deadly waves in harsh weather and ocean conditions takes a very serious approach.
Big wave surfers are not interested in performance. Forget perfect cutbacks, stunning floaters or breathless aerial antics. The profile of a big wave rider is the result of several unparalleled personal characteristics.

Fear is always present in a 50-foot wave. Fear is the best way of managing the risk of paddling for a huge wave face, which doesn’t tell you what is going to happen and how it is going to break.

Monster waves tend to move quickly and force surfers to get away of the powerful whitewater. Big waves are lethal even for the most experienced extreme riders. The best big wave surf spots in the world have claimed several lives in the last decades.

Malik Joyeux, Sion Milosky, Moto Watanabe, Mark Foo, Donnie Solomon, Todd Chesser, Dickie Cross and Peter Davi have passed away in extreme surfing conditions. Wipeouts, severe coral reef injuries and drowning are the most common causes of death in big wave surfing.

The pioneers of big wave surfing started to eye impossible killer rides in the 1940’s. In the 1960’s, waves like Pipeline and Waimea increased the popularity of paddling into new wave heights. Going over the falls was the daily menu.

Laird Hamilton is the first professional big wave surfer. The waterman from Maui defies fast, hollow and high waves with a full-time training and previous preparation. Hamilton, the father of tow-in surfing, takes on the entire big wave spots of the Hawaiian Islands, in helicopter style.

Laird was born with the gene of defying danger. He designs and prepares his own surfboards and wetsuits. Wherever heavy waves break, Hamilton is there to ride them: Mavericks, Cortes Bank, Dungeons.

In 2000, Laird Hamilton surfs what is considered the heaviest wave of all time. The “Millennium Wave” was ridden in the reef of Teahupoo, in Tahiti, and set a new standard for big wave surfing.

Garrett McNamara is one of the toughest big wave challengers. After riding a spectacular 78-foot wave in Nazaré, Portugal, the Hawaiian waterman entered the Guinness World Records with the biggest wave ever surfed.

The 55 best big wave surfers of all time is an exclusive extreme surfing club. From Jaws to Mavericks, Puerto Escondido, Punta Lobos, Ghost Trees, Belharra, Shipstern Bluff and Todos Santos, Nazare. these riders have set up a new scale in the definition of giant waves. They are:
