The journey in the heart of big wave surfing continues with this sequel of acclaim surf documentary The Big Wave Project.

This production has taken Tim Bonython around the planet to interview the world’s most renowned big wave surfers and to record the biggest and most death-defying waves. It’s a narrative that will scare viewers as much as it will exhilarate.

How monster waves can be surfed both in paddle and tow? Is there any limits? What are the stories behind the biggest waves too big to paddle?

The Big Wave Project 2 takes on answering those questions by traveling to all the big wave spots on the planet with the world’s most respected big wave surfers.

Locations include: Nazaré (Portugal) – the home of the biggest ridable wave, The Right, Shipsterns (Australia), Cloudbreak (Fiji) and Teahupo’o (Tahiti), Mavericks and Jaws ( USA)

Featuring legendary Hawaiian surfers Kai Lenny, Ian Walsh, Kohl Christensen. Aussies Jamie Mitchell, Kipp Caddy & Brad Norris. In Europe Nic Von Rupp, Conor Maguire & Tom Lowe. In Tahiti, Kauli Vaast, Matahi Drollet & Arrihoe Tefaafana.

This sequel documentary brings up very special inside stories like how big wave surfing has changed at Mavericks with Jeff Clarke, or covering unique moment of bravery with the story of Ramon Navarro’s greatest moment at Fiji’s Cloudbreak.

This documentary will not be complete without Nazare, the new Mecca of big wave surfing, with Kai Lenny, Andrew Cotton & world record holders Maya Gabreia & Rodrigo Koxa who share their feelings on the biggest waves EVER surfed. Plus hot off the press that historic February 2022 swell where some serious contenders went down for a possible new Guinness World Record for the biggest wave.

The Big Wave Project 2 is a made for the big screen, a show that you don’t want to miss!!

It is a documentary narrated by Australian big wave legend and world champion Tom Carroll.

The Big Wave Project 2 is directed by Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts (AACTA) award-winning cinematographer and multi-award winning surf film producer, Tim Bonython, who has four decades of experience in filming and documenting surfing.
To really feel the energy this show is a gotta see on the BIG SCREEN!

The first ever New Jersey Surf Trifecta was an absolute blast! The challenge is to complete all 3 stops in one single day. From proper tubes on the beach to the novelty dreams of a ferry wave & finally the mechanic oasis that is the American Dream Mall this was one of the most fun & epic days of surfing I’ve ever had & I didn’t even have to leave New Jersey!? Finding the dream in your own back yard is what it’s all about! THANK YOU for the stoke! – Ben

Coming to the end of the season right now, it’s been a long season.
Big, Clean…. probably the best so far!

We had over 20 Big waves sessions this year, everyone is hurting, and everyone is broken.
l usually never get hurt, but this year I bruised my ribs badly at the WSL Challenge, made a huge effort to surf 2 weeks later on the historic Feb 25th Swell and on my Second Wave I fractured a part of my shoulder.

Every year there is the same talk. And honestly, this is the worst part about Surfing Big waves. It’s when everyone starts pulling out their measurement tapes and the battle starts.
Who Surfed the biggest wave? Who rode it deeper? That’s not the part I like the most, but we are in a competitive sport, and that requires a winner. What I feel is wrong is that less and less there is a rule book on how waves should be measured. Everyone. just screams as loud as they can and those who scream the loudest get the publics’ attention.

What do you think? Let me know in the comments what are your thought on this matter!
