Big Wave Surfer Mark Visser Makes History As He Tows In At Jaws At 2am

 

 

shame the swell was too inconsistent for the eddie,,

Yeah that's pretty mental. I surfed Boscombe Pier at 4-5' on the face at midnight once. That was scary enough.

boscombe's not so sharky though eh....

2 words - **** that!!

 

Went night surfing on my local beach one night about 2 years ago. All was well until the waves started getting weak on the full tide. Started to paddle back in, 10 minutes later a set broke about 5 feet in front of me. I then realised I had been in a rip the whole time, couldn't see the shore so started paddling for the lights of the village about half a km away. 10 minutes of this and I realised the rip was coming down the beach and exiting at the point I had been trying to paddle to shore from. Was pretty scary. So no more night surfs for me.

 

Found this also, crazy chick. One thing surfing Jaws at night, another thing doing it during the day..... with one arm!

Woah. That is impressive

she is a local though, grew up there,, and she also has "the odds" on her side,

 

realistically, what are the chances of the same person getting bitten twice...

[Rob D]

She is still an inspirational person.

 

Just to get out in the water again after a shark attack like that.

 

Makes me feel real humble... always a good feeling.

15' is 15'. that'd be hawaiin aswell. Triple overhead they call 3ft. Can't quite understand it myself.
