for those of you who follow surfing have you guys heard about the billabong odyssey? Its going to go on for 3 years to remote locations looking for the biggest waves to surf. Whoever surfs the biggest wave gets $1,000 per foot of face. And they are aiming to find a 100 foot wave.

 
yeah thats so sweet. i guess if they find a 100 footer, they wanna give the dude a million for it. i bet parsons will win...hes nasty

yeah parsons is crazy. They have so many amzing surfers with them though: peter mel, ken collins, laird hamilton, brock little, shane dorian and a bunch of others have all signed on

 
That is awesome. I know nothing about surfing except from what I read in Outside magazine, but I know that to surf those waves you gotta have coconut balls, total reliance on your skills, because one slip and you die!

i think that a 100 ft wave has already been hit by laird. That sounds sick though is it all gonna be on a video or something

flea and the santa cruz boys rode 80 footers at mavs

by the way did you just hear about the oddesyssa;kdf; its been going on for years now

 
there are many new big wave events, with the billabong odyssey probably being the biggest. there called bounty events because you earn money for one wave. theres also a movie out about the billabong odyssey
