Todcast Goes To Tavarua

By: Lindsay Fraka

First of all, Todd Richards is a little liar due to his twitter posting a few hours ago saying that Part One of his Tavarua Todcast was posted on the Quiksilver site. I, of course, got giddy and hopped over to the website. To my dismay, it was not there.

Todd finally corrected himself and got the Todcast posted a couple hours later and re-twittered (is that a word?) that it was actually up. What is this? Amateur hour? Don't do that Todd. I can't handle all these emotional highs and lows!

Anyway, Todd, Nixon and company (Travis Pastrana, Transworld Surf's Chris Cote, Bruce Irons, JP Walker, Iikka Backstrom, and THE Sal Masaleka) took over Tavarua, Fiji for a bit (ten days to be precise).

Part one shows us basically that A) Todd continuously, hilariously and predictably talks shit to everyone B) The crew shreds a mini ramp and plays tennis in the middle of the jungle C) The surf was pretty much ideal. D) Tavarua, Fiji is pretty much paradise.

Stay tuned for Part Two of Todd's trip.

"Record" for Largest Wave Ever Ridden Trivializes Big-Wave Surfing

A return to old-school measuring techniques is in order

Consider two representations of two very big waves, below. The first is a photograph of Mike Parsons at Cortes Bank. The second is a video of Garrett McNamara near Nazare, Portugal. Now take out some measuring tape and make the distance of one foot between your hands. That's the amount, according to the Billabong XXL committee, that McNamara's wave is bigger than Parsons's wave.
