Hello and welcome to episode one of an ongoing series titled Strange Beautiful Life we hope to have fun, entertain and get you stoked on surfing. This first episode features my winter escape from freezing Newquay in Cornwall to the warmer waters of Central America. Me and Tim spent two months making this and had an absolute blast in the process. I hope you all enjoy and stay tuned for each episode. thanks Stokesy
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.
