Lucas Chianca at 19:50 is pretty nuts. That wave is HUGE.

[@sea2959]

Nathan Florence....surfe of th year

[@surfermag]

Definitely a solid case for it here, right. But Kai Lenny's had a lot of great rides this year, too. Tough call.

[@nathanmyers1253]

I'd second that vote. He's been putting in the miles this year.

[@rastagideon8236]

His channel is the best.

Beanciaa not just a good surfer 🎉for a girl but just a great surfer all around 😊

[@kevinsolvold7238]

You should have two categories paddle in n towing Nate has the real surfing 🏄‍♂️ big waves on his paddle in 👋

[@surfermag]

There are both categories, plus overall performer of the year (which Nate makes a good case for).

[@joseblanescc546]

En esos tubos, podrias meter un autobús, buaaaa.

[@craigrumbal6811]

That was so sick it should be a sickness beneficiary 🤙

[@oletreed4230]

Wait that Jojo dude has his feet in boots strapped in? And being towed by boat?

[@greglippert5313]

Can we please exclude wakeboarding from Surfing forever? If surfing is 98% paddling, removing it and replacing it with jet skis and ropes makes it something entirely different. Catching a wave as a watermen is what makes big wave surfing next-level.

a few bars of that music would be great, but never changing monotonous
