Brit Surfer rides possible 100ft wave

British Surfer Tom Butler surfed a potential world record wave in Portugal. Pretty impressive.
It is rumored that Nomad surfers routinely surf waves this large at the secret spot.

Um... there is 100 foot waves?

Yes, you probably want to keep your ship in harbor. I'm sure that's the measure from trough to crest, not from the back like the old "pros" measure it.

That's my estimate as well. I know a spot in Baja that holds at least 20 foot. Wish I could tell you where, but, you know...........
