Hawaiian Garrett McNamara spent late October chasing swell in Europe, and nabbed this huge bomb off the coast of Portugal. Is it the biggest wave ever ridden?
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.
