Body Glove co-founders Bob and Bill Meistrell were inseparable growing up. Bob reflects on the past with his brother and creating the first Body Glove wetsuits for local surf legends to use in the cold waters of the South Bay.
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.
