Watch how Portuguese rescue jet ski driver, Sérgio Cosme, saves big-wave surfers from drowning at Praia do Norte in Nazaré, Portugal.

Cosme saves surfers from giant waves up to 30 meters tall.

Portuguese seaside resort Nazaré is home to some of the biggest waves in the world from October to March.

Jet-ski pilot Sérgio Cosme is one of the people who makes sure big-wave surfers end up safely back on dry land each time.

Cosme lives in a house on a cliff overlooking the sandy, ochre-colored beach of Nazaré – a small resort 100 kilometers north of Lisbon – which is a surfing hotspot.

With waves up to 30 meters tall crashing into the shore, it has attracted surfers from all around the world to try and tame the foaming giants each winter.

Finding Speed episode 3 covers the second week of the team’s back-to-back camps in Portugal, and round 2 of the Portugal Cup at Padela. This week Jack and Rueben were joined by first year junior team rider Tom Westgate, and Gravity School Coaching rider Tommy Walker, who is also a first year junior. Both Tom and Tommy have big personalities, which meant for an entertaining week.

Tom had just returned from 3 months skiing in Switzerland and Canada, where he had completed his training to be a qualified ski instructor. He was really excited to get back on the bike, and especially excited to ride his new RAAW Yalla! for the first time. Tom is big mates with team junior riders Oscar and Theo, so he was really keen to set a fast time on the Ventoso Gravity Park Leader Board and get ahead of his counterparts.

Tommy came to the coaching camp on a mission. He made it clear early on that he was keen to learn as much as he could, as efficiently as he could, and go on to set the fastest junior time on the Leader Board. We also got the news on day 1 of the camp that Tommy had been selected to race the first 3 rounds of the World Cup series, so this fired him up even more. It was all set to be a big week of coaching and racing.
