German Big Wave Surfer Sebastian Steudtner, 33 years old, rode a spectacular monster wave in Portugal’s Nazaré during the giant swell of February 7th, the footage was just recently released during the presentation of this years nominations for the WSL Big Wave Awards, in which Steudtner’s 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 2nd and a winner or potential new World Record official measurement 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 Filmaker who captured this footage who also captured Rodrigo Koxa’s current World Record last season, said on a statement to the press: “February 7th, was a really tough day to capture video in Nazaré, the myst was thick and the light was terrible, even so I’m really happy to have captured Sebastian’s Wave, that thing was monstrous and Sebastian’s ride was flawless, for sure one of the biggest and most spetacular waves I’ve ever captured out there”. When asked about a potential new world record with this wave, Miranda stated “I don’t 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 was teaming up with Brazilian Big Wave Surfer and holder of the current Guiness World Record for Biggest Wave ever surfed by a Women, Maya Gabeira, who towed Steudtner into this monster wave and rescued him after the ride. About this wave in particular, Maya said the following statement to the filmmaker: “I’ve towed Sebastian to several big ones during that session, but this wave was special, it was the biggest wave I’ve watched during the all season for sure, really glad for him”.
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, where using the WSL measuring system the wave could potentially be measured at 95ft.

“I got blasted with people sending me stuff speculating about the size of my wave that’s up for the @wslbigwave biggest wave award this Thursday. A very interested professor of the German institute for solid state physics, sent me this picture using the official WSL measuring system to determine the size of the wave. 95ft is an impressive number, we will find the 100ft wave soon enough :)” in Sebastian’s Instagram.
Praia do Norte beach, near the fishing village of Nazaré, has become famous worldwide for huge waves in 2011, when Hawaiian surfer Garrett McNamara set a world-record for the largest wave ever surfed at 78-foot at the time, in 2017 that record was broken by Brazilian surfer Rodrigo Koxa, setting the bar at 80-foot.
