Winner of the 2011 Imaginarium contest by Transworld Surf, Cheyne Magnusson, Alex Gray, Justin Quirk, and Jamie O'Brien go 8-bit. Body Glove was voted "Reader's Choice" and awarded "Best Video".
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.
