The second half of the 2010 ASP World Tour season gets underway this week at the Hurley Pro. With a tight race brewing and a grueling schedule ahead, it's worth noting where things stand. Chris Mauro breaks it down.
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.
