Not official yet, but it sure looks to be close to 100ft. Somewhere Bodhi and Jonny Utah are sh*tting themselves over this. Awesome picture and I had no idea Portugal swelled up like this. Guy either has balls of steel or just a fuggin lunatic.

“Half the people think I’m out of my mind … and half are just – I think they all think I’m crazy, actually.”

LOL. Crazy and with balls of steel.

That's actually a video of a wave McNamara rode during winter 2011 at the same spot. I have been trying to find video of the wave he rode recently but have not been able to. That wave was supposedly around 90'. When you're talking waves that big, how much bigger is 10' really?

It's freakin' nuts though. I was amazed by the 35' waves hitting Waimea Bay on New Year's Eve. I couldn't imagine seeing one of those waves in person.

A clip compilation of the swell that day...

    • From my what I have seen the overwhelming majority of people who are considering the notion a possibility don't really want to see it happen but are considering so for a number of reasons. Most importantly availability. Secondly even when he plays the last few seasons he has been red hot or ice cold. Then there is the subject of his defense which to say the least leaves a lot to be desired. Then there is the image of Ball inactive laughing it up on the sideline (while our team was getting the doors blown off) with previous busts who are now relegated to hanging on by a thread in the g league. I think we should be able to recognize with the team going out of their way to put a very strong emphasis on culture and leadership with the conclusion of this years draft that they expect LaMelo to lead the way this upcoming season and that begins with making significant strides and trending in a positive direction in the aforementioned aspects above. It just has to happen.
    • Ppl want to trade Melo? Am I wrong for thinking that would be a bad idea? 
    • Some of you act like one can't learn from experience over time. Just because you may not know what you're doing in 2018 doesn't mean that you don't know what you're doing in 2025. Frankly, you grow from experience, and success and excellence gives first-time applicants the hand probably 99.999% of the time.
