LONGLISTED FOR THE 2023 WILLIAM HILL SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR
JOIN THE QUEST TO SURF THE BIGGEST WAVE IN HISTORY.
In a small fishing village on the coast of Portugal, a select band of surfers take unimaginable risks, pushing the boundaries of their death-defying sport as they seek to go bigger than ever before.
Their goal? To ride the Everest of the ocean - the 100-foot wave.
Sports journalist Matt Majendie is welcomed into the inner circle of Nazaré''s tight community of big-wave surfers and extreme thrill-seekers, living among them for a season as he chronicles their incredible highs and terrifying lows.
Follow the endeavours of Britain''s leading big-wave surfer, a former plumber from Devon, Andrew Cotton; trailblazing Brazilian female surfer Maya Gabeira; current World Record holder German Sebastian Steudtner; Portuguese Nic von Rupp and jet-ski driver Sérgio Cosme, nicknamed ''the Guardian Angel of Nazaré'' for his daring rescues, in this gripping read.
