he's at the wave base. It's shot from above, like a cliff or a FCUKING drone.
oh I apparently burned 2228 kilojoules in the pool this morning, how big of a wave am I?

Sure, if you interpret 20' faces as 6'. I support freedom of speech.
i interpret that photo as a 6-foot wave.
solid 4 if i was in hawaii.

It's pretty deceiving, kinda looks like he is half way down it.

He's a bit crouched, so I'm estimating his image is about 5', and I can fit at least 4 of that image between the flat at the base of the wave and the top of the wave. I don't know what the angle is or how far away the picture was taken, so its impossible to correct for that, so I'm still keeping a 20' face as my best estimate. You guys are welcome to your estimates.

I agree, his board is slightly below halfway up the face of the wave.

Looks like a nice 6-8ft day at bells without the girth to scare any punters away.
That could be the elusive 7 footer.

I bet Godsave has surfed a 7 footer in the Maldives.

Cmon godsave. Almost guaranteed Steve would surf rings around you. Shit even I might, less tick tacks of course.

Ah surfing. Pretty much the only sport where adult males will openly challenge each other like male lions on the Serengeti.
It really is a beautiful but stupid past time.

Sounds like a surf-off is brewing.
We need a neutral location.
Maldives is about halfway isn’t it?

8.) 360 (once in 1989)
