Brazilian surfer Rodrigo Koxa now holds the Guinness World Record for the largest wave ever ridden.

The judges of the World Surf League (WSL) Big Wave Awards considered it to be a 80-foot wave (24.38 meters).

Koxa surfed this mammoth wave on November 8, 2017, at Praia do Norte, the infamous big wave surf break located in Nazaré, Portugal.

The 38-year-old athlete beat Garrett McNamara’s 2011 world record by two feet.
