Nazaré is the world’s stage for the biggest waves ever ridden, most of the memorable rides so far were all during big days with favourable or at least sufficient conditions for surfers and safety teams to ride and operate… when conditions go beyond that point, we call it Black Naza.
During the session of February 9th, 2016, things were far from ideal in Praia do Norte, big storm, the swell was big with high period, but the wind was too strong and onshore, most of the waves were too bumpy, the big ones were closing out, the inside looked like nothing less than a war zone. Despite those conditions, Australian hardcore surfers Mick Corbett and Jarryd Foster decided to have a go anyway and test the waters, this guys have made a name charging “The Right” in Western Australia, one of the most dangerous slabs on the Planet, and it’s such a thrill to watch them here testing the limits even in days like this, literally on an unridable naza.
General Pants BOWL-A-RAMA Bondi 2016 is a wrap, and it will surely go down as one of the best contests in recent memory. Heavy rain threatened to derail the second day of competition, but the skate gods stepped in to deliver unlikely blue skies and a full schedule of shredding from the world’s best bowl skateboarders — capping off an epic two days of non-stop action and jaw-dropping tricks.
