Big Wave surfing

Big wave surfing is a thrilling water sport where surfers ride massive waves, typically over 20 feet high. This form of surfing requires exceptional skill, strength, and courage, as well as specialized equipment like tow-in boards and safety gear, given the immense power of the ocean. Surfers often use jet skis to navigate to the waves quickly and help with rescues if needed. Popular locations for big wave surfing include spots like Nazaré in Portugal and Pipeline in Hawaii. The sport not only demands physical prowess but also a deep respect for the ocean and its challenges.
