Big waves are just one of those things you have to see, feel and hear for yourself. Once you experience it you know what I’m talking about. I’ve spent hours at a deserted beach in central Mexico that could kick up some 30 footers, 200 feet from shore maybe. The locals told me when storms shift the sands just right, they form. Said the shelf just fell off to hundreds of feet and it lifts the ocean wave as it comes in. ALL BY MYSELF, for hours! The sound would drown out my headphones it was so loud. The spray from the crash misting the view. Never forget those days.❤

They would start to lift, curl over and…………. Birds chirping, wind in your ear silence…………. You’d say to yourself “OH SHIT” …………. And then CRASH, BANG, BOOM! Over and over 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎

This is small compared to 2010. That year was epic. Over 70'. There were casualties on the beach as the sets grew into pushing through the crowds. I rescued a photographer who had compound fractured his leg in the first big set that came up. Then we got tumbled with the gates they moved back about 20min later. My wife was swept right out from under me and I recovered her 50' away almost into the Bay behind the jetty.

"Brave" is one adjective to describe taking on the Mavericks. "Stupid" and "reckless" are better terms but if you come out of it, alive and with no broken bones, it could be the most gnarly and truly epic ride of your life! As they say, "Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all!"
