    PS: "8 or 80" is an old Portuguese proverb that refers to the Nazaré way of life - a kind of mentality, a spectrum in dealing with each other, a certain basic tension but never escalation, binary thought patterns and above all the range of variation in wave height (8-80 feet), wave speed (up to 80 km/h) and age.

    As a surfer myself, you needs balls of steel to go out and paddle in/get towed in to waves like these, and this isn’t even a “Big” day for here.

    It's nice to have a sport that supports bravery without conflict. I also like that these guys are getting paid, but that is a heck of a way to make a buck.
    I am happy to be just a casual body surfer, no life saving gear or support teams needed, and I can still learn the lessons the sea provides to the wise.

    • @AlexWippel

      Thank you for your feedback! I guess there are conflicts in big wave surfing just like in any other team sport but we need to take care of each other out there no matter what. I think Makua Rothman once said: Maybe we are no friends or I might not even like you but the moment you are coming down that face of a wave you are my brother.

      You‘re wrong - they were. Surfing is extremely popular in South America and this competition was broadcasted there. Just because our perception of something goes one direction doesn‘t mean it‘s true

    Some of worst decision making by jet ski drivers I've ever seen in big surf. Out of position, ghost rides and almost running over surfers on the wave.
    Not one complete wave ridden.
    Basically a guide on what not to do at Nazare.

    • @davidpreiss8638
      @davidpreiss8638 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      And I guess you‘re talking out of experience because you know how to surf or drive jetskis in 30 meter waves yourself right? If not then stfu and don‘t annoy great content creators with your unnecessary opinion
