Here's a quick mid-contest update on the sunshine, the waves, and the Skullcandy surf team riders at the Triple Crown of surfing on the North Shore of Hawaii.
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.
