A huge swell in Nazare could be the biggest wave ever surfed, with surfer Sebastian Steudtner achieving the stunning feat back in February.
The footage was just recently released during the presentation of this year’s nominations for the WSL Big Wave Awards, in which Steudtnerâs wave is now one of the final 5 waves nominated for the Biggest Wave Category.
The Awards ceremony will take place in California on May 2 and a winner or potential record-breaker will be announced.
Locals described this wave as one of the biggest waves of the season and one of the biggest ever. Pedro Miranda, the filmer who captured this footage, said: ”February 7 was a really tough day to capture video in NazarĂ©, the mist was thick and the light was terrible, even so, Iâm really happy to have captured Sebastianâs wave, that thing was monstrous and Sebastianâs ride was flawless, for sure one of the biggest and most spectacular waves Iâve ever captured out there.”
When asked about a potential new world record with this wave, Miranda stated: ”I donât like to go into speculations, the official measurements will be presented by the WSL in just a few days, this was one of the biggest waves of the season for sure, calling this or any other wave from this season a new world record is just a game that I prefer not to play.”
Sebastian Steudtner, who already won the WSL Biggest Wave Awards two times (back in 2010 and 2015), posted on social media an unofficial measurement, sent to him by the German Institute for Solid State Physics, that determined the height of the wave to be 95ft.
