Garrett McNamara is a world record-breaking big wave surfer and one of the pioneers of sport. What's crazy about Garrett's story is that while he achieved pro surfer status early on, his career didn't take off until his mid to late 30's when he became infatuated with riding giant waves. And then it exploded to the point where now, at 55, he's launching his 3rd Season of his “100 Foot Wave” series with HBO. On the podcast, we talk about growing up in cults, Hawaii, being there for the beginning of tow-in surfing, being big in Japan, Northshore (the movie) his HBO series, and much more. It's another interesting one with a legend.

The story of how the legendary surfer, Garrett McNamara, pioneered riding the colossal 100ft waves at Nazaré on the Portuguese coast. At Nazaré in 2011 he broke the world record for the biggest wave ever surfed at the time, officially judged to be 78ft (23.8m). Nazaré has since become a centre of big wave surfing.

O Centro Interpretativo do Canhão da Nazaré, localizado no icônico Forte de S. Miguel Arcanjo, que testemunha as maiores ondas do planeta, recebeu uma importante contribuição para seu acervo: a prancha utilizada pelo brasileiro Ian Cosenza em algumas de suas memoráveis descidas na Praia do Norte, conhecida pelas ondas gigantescas. Luciana Quaresma, correspondente da RFI em PortugalA inclusão da prancha do surfista carioca representa um marco significativo, consolidando a crescente influência brasileira no universo do surfe de ondas excepcionais. “É uma honra pra qualquer surfista estar ali no museu, ter sua prancha, ter seu nome gravado num lugar tão importante para o cenário do Big Surf. Poder representar o Brasil nessas ondas grandes é um prazer enorme", declarou Cosenza em entrevista exclusiva à RFI.A escolha da prancha de Ian Cosenza não simboliza apenas conquistas individuais, mas também a crescente força do surfe brasileiro no cenário internacional. A peça escolhida para o museu foi utilizada em momentos cruciais de sua trajetória em Nazaré, onde ondas colossais, ultrapassando os 30 metros de altura, desafiam os limites da coragem e a habilidade dos atletas.Para Cosenza, o impacto vai além do reconhecimento pessoal. "Sei que os brasileiros são apaixonados por surfe, independente do tamanho da onda. A galera lá no Brasil gosta muito de estar surfando. Dificilmente, você vai ver um pico quebrando sozinho, sem ter ninguém dentro d'água”, destaca o carioca. Essa paixão, segundo ele, é um elemento fundamental que impulsiona a cena brasileira do surfe e a coloca em destaque em todo o mundo. A doação da prancha para o museu, inclusive, ficou marcada como um momento especial. "Eles me ligaram e falaram que eu tinha pego uma das maiores ondas do mundo com uma prancha de madeira e gostariam muito que aquela prancha fosse exposta no farol”, recorda o atleta.Nazaré: a busca pela perfeiçãoA Praia do Norte, em Nazaré, é um teste de resistência física e mental. As ondas gigantescas exigem uma preparação impecável, que envolve condicionamento físico extremo, estratégia e, acima de tudo, coragem inabalável. Cosenza descreve a experiência como um processo holístico. "Nazaré não é um lugar para principiantes, e ao longo dos anos a gente vai descobrindo isso", observa o surfista.Desafiar os paredões de água com equilíbrio exige muito trabalho físico, mental e dedicação, tanto com a equipe quanto com os equipamentos. "Costumo dizer que para você surfar em Nazaré, é preciso estar com todas as suas engrenagens em perfeita harmonia: físico, mental, equipe, equipamento e talento”, explica Cosenza.Essa busca pela perfeição, pela sincronia entre o atleta, seu equipamento e sua equipe, é um dos fatores que definem o sucesso em Nazaré e que a prancha de Cosenza no Museu do Surfe representa de forma tão contundente. Um dia específico, em outubro de 2020, permanece na memória de Cosenza como um marco na sua carreira. Uma ligação inesperada o avisou sobre um swell gigantesco, resultando em momentos inesquecíveis, descritos por ele como "um swell do século, com as maiores ondas já vistas em Nazaré, com condições incríveis", recorda.Um olhar para o futuro do surfeO “Surfer Wall”, como é conhecida a parede que abriga as pranchas dentro do Forte de S. Miguel Arcanjo, hoje abriga 35 pranchas, mas tudo começou com a doação de uma prancha do surfista brasileiro Pedro Scooby. O espaço fascinante, que celebra a rica história do surfe e a profunda conexão da comunidade local com o mar, foi inaugurado em 2014 para homenagear a tradição pesqueira e os esportes aquáticos da região. Além de suas exposições permanentes, que enfatizam a cultura do surfe em ondas gigantescas, o museu promove eventos e palestras voltados para a segurança no mar e a preservação ambiental, tornando-se um ponto de referência para surfistas e amantes da cultura marítima em todo o mundo.Walter Chicharro, ex-presidente do município da Nazaré, destacou que a ideia de homenagear os surfistas que enfrentam as ondas da Praia do Norte surgiu como uma forma de “reconhecer e celebrar os atletas que, em um verdadeiro coliseu natural, buscam a maior onda de suas vidas”. Segundo ele, a homenagem não só ressalta a coragem e o talento desses desportistas de alto rendimento, mas também posiciona Nazaré como um símbolo global do surfe de ondas grandes, atraindo atenção internacional e consolidando o local como um marco no cenário esportivo mundial.O museu abriga uma coleção impressionante, incluindo a célebre prancha do surfista brasileiro conhecido como Alemão de Maresias, exposta desde 2019. O paranaense é um dos pilotos de segurança aquática mais reconhecidos do mundo por suas performances destemidas em Nazaré, e não esconde a felicidade pelo amigo Cosenza.“Eu vejo essa conquista do Ian com muita alegria. Eu acho que ele é um atleta que se dedicou muito ao esporte e nos últimos anos tem se dedicado especialmente às ondas da Nazaré. Fico muito feliz. Acho que e' uma conquista muito positiva, muito bacana não só para o Ian mas também para o surfe brasileiro”, comenta o experiente surfista e piloto de tow-in, que conhece as ondas de Nazaré como poucos.A homenagem ao carioca é uma declaração de excelência do surfe brasileiro e uma inspiração para as futuras gerações de atletas. O museu já tem expostas peças de outros grandes nomes brasileiros, como Maya Gabeira, que fez história ao se tornar a primeira mulher a surfar uma onda de 20,5 metros, conquistando um recorde no Guinness em 2020. Sua trajetória não apenas a elevou como atleta, mas também a transformou em uma inspiração para muitas mulheres que aspiram a surfar ondas gigantescas.Outra prancha memorável em exposição é a de Rodrigo Koxa, que surfou uma impressionante onda de 24,4 metros em 2017, quebrando o recorde mundial e garantindo seu lugar no Guinness World Records. Carlos Burle, um dos pioneiros do surfe de ondas grandes no Brasil, também tem sua prancha no museu. Em 2001, Burle surfou uma onda de 20,3 metros que o colocou nas páginas da história do surfe em Nazaré.Além dos icones brasileiros do big surfe, o museu também exibe pranchas de lendas internacionais, como o havaiano Garrett McNamara e o californiano Gary Linden, reforçando seu papel fundamental na preservação da história e cultura do esporte.A prancha de Ian Cosenza, agora imortalizada em Nazaré, demonstra a superação de limites e o constante esforço em busca da perfeição que definem o espírito competitivo e apaixonado dos surfistas de elite.O Museu do Forte de S. Miguel Arcanjo abre diariamente de 10h às 20h (última entrada às 19h30).

Meet The McNamara's, the first family of big wave surfing. Garrett McNamara is one of the world's premier big wave surfers; wife Nicole is a top big wave spotter; Nicole's brother CJ rides the big waves, too. Now, son Barrel is (perhaps) on the path following in dad's footsteps. If season 1 of HBO's enthralling docuseries “!00 Foot Wave” was all about the pursuit of that illusive triple digit milestone, season 2 digs deeper into the rich and complex personalities who make up the elite big wave surfing community. Joining Ken to discuss season 2 is Executive Producer Joe Lewis (“Fleabag”, “Transparent”) – making his second appearance on Top Docs – and Nicole McNamara, one of the series' featured participants. How did Joe and director Chris Smith (“Tiger King”, “American Movie”) go about choosing new people to feature in season 2? What was it like for Nicole to confront major health issues during a very difficult pregnancy while husband Garrett seemed more focused on the big waves than on her? And how did cinematographer Karl Sandrock become an adjunct member of this unique family? “100 Foot Wave, Season 2” is currently streaming on Max. After you enjoy our conversation, be sure to check out the HBO Original 100 Foot Wave Podcast, which features Nicole as host interviewing many of the series' standout characters (Top Doc's own Mike and Ken served as Consulting Producers).

We dive into Garrett's background—how he began surfing, his 100-foot wave quest, and the docu-series that captured it all. As an added bonus, Garrett's wife Nicole—absolutely his partner in all things—joins the conversation at the end to enlighten us on the manifestation spiritual practice she and Garrett utilize to guide their decision-making and execute their goals.

The six part HBO documentary 100 Foot Wave is the story of big wave surfer Garrett McNamara, as he learns about the biggest waves in the world in Nazaré, Portugal. Then, with help from the town of Nazaré, he and his team set up a safety and support system and invite surfers to come from all over the world to surf. The series captures the amazing power of the ocean, and the passion of surfers chasing big waves and putting themselves at risk of serious injury and death. Surf and ocean cinematographer Mike Prickett was the perfect DP for 100 Foot Wave. Mike has decades of experience shooting in the water, following Garrett and many other big wave surfers around the world. He's shot documentaries Riding Giants, Step Into Liquid and the biopic Chasing Mavericks. As a kid growing up on the island of Oahu, Hawaii, Mike took advantage of living in a tourist spot. He had his own camera, took pictures of the tourists, developed and printed the pictures while they did glass bottom boat tours, and then sold the photos to them when they returned. He soon figured out how to take photos underwater with his camera in a water housing, then got a 16mm Bolex camera and started shooting movies. Mike learned how to surf and began filming the top surfers around the world, developing new and better camera systems as the technology progressed. On a shoot in Tahiti in 2012, Mike saved a diver who got caught in a current that pushed him down at least 220 feet underwater. As Mike swam back up with the diver, they began to run out of air and had to surface quickly. Mike got the bends, which has left his legs partially paralyzed. But he's kept right on shooting, developing different and exciting ways to further the technology of water cinematography. Mike says that even if you can't use your legs very well, it doesn't matter when you're out there. He's able to shoot from the cliffs, use remote controlled jet skis and drones, and fly in helicopters, ride jet skis or boats on the ocean. For 100 Foot Wave, Nazaré, Portugal presented some unique challenges as a location, because the waves are so big and the area gets so foggy. The surfers and the camera crew wait all year for the big waves to come to Nazaré by November and December, and they must be ready to go and shoot at a moment's notice. Shooting is a massive undertaking, with at least 15 camera people on the waves to catch the action. The crew caught the action with long lenses from the cliffs, the beach, and with waterproof drones, but when it was foggy, they needed to have people in the water. Mike and the team built a special remote controlled electric jet ski with a gimbal system that could be controlled by an operator from the cliffs- basically inventing a way to do smooth dolly shots on the water. Mike Prickett just won a Creative Arts Emmy for episode four of 100 Foot Wave. 100 Foot Wave is streaming on HBOMax.

It's also the most likely future location for that most elusive of all surfing dreams: the 100-foot wave. As the hunting ground of legendary surfer Garrett McNamara, Nazaré plays a starring role in the thrilling six-part, Emmy®-nominated HBO series “100 Foot Wave” directed by Chris Smith (“Tiger King”, “American Movie”). “100 Foot Wave” Executive Producer Joe Lewis (“Fleabag”, “Transparent”) recently sat down with Ken to plunge beneath the surface of the film team's creative process. How did a conversation with his wife about a distant relation by marriage lead Joe to Garrett McNamara, who spent years working with local officials to put Nazaré on the map of big wave surfing? How did the filmmakers go from thinking they were pitching a feature film to making a six-part series that is now well on its way to a second season? And what was it like collaborating with Garrett and his wife Nicole, whose one condition was, “We don't want to make a surf movie”? You've heard it a million times: it's the journey that counts. But, if the waves break just right, you can be sure that Garrett or one of his cohorts will be there at Nazaré to catch that 100-foot wave. Please join us as we explore this incredible journey with Joe. It's the most fun you can have while staying dry.

A seminal big-wave surfing documentary, complete with staggering visuals, intense score, and larger-than-life personality. Follows extreme surfer Garrett McNamara's journey as he pioneers new methods for taking on the world's biggest waves. HBO Max.Rebecca: Dark. At first, this cerebral time-travel story feels like a German take on Stranger Things - but Dark, frankly, is much weirder than that. Get hooked by the surprising twists, stay for the stellar performances from its ensemble cast. Perfect for a February binge-session. Netflix.Taylor: Alone. Most reality TV relies on human interaction in order to create drama - this one is just the opposite. Contestants film themselves as they try to survive the longest in harsh wilderness conditions without friends, family, or even producers around to see them do it. Hulu and Netflix.Justine: The Great. An “occasionally true” look back at the reign of Catherine the Great, the devotee of enlightenment ideals who oversaw Russia during one of its most prosperous eras. Visually, it's a great period piece - but what sets it apart is the raunchy, smart, laugh-out-loud humor. Hulu. NON-SCREEN 'KOSELIG' IDEASTaylor: Put together a puzzle unlike any other. Rebecca: Keep yourself cozy with a rubber hot water bottle. Jessica: Make yourself some glogg.Justine: Throw a fantastic winter banquet, with the help of How to Eat a Peach by Diana Henry. Justine's bonus recommendation (excellent on its own or paired with The Great): The Dawn of Everything by David Graeber and David Wengrow, a book about freedom, the Indigenous influence on the Enlightenment, and what on Earth our ancient human ancestors were up to for hundreds of thousands of years.

Surfing wasn't always popular in Portugal. It's only in the last 35-40 years that it has been acknowledged as a sport. During this podcast, big wave surfer Hugo Vau talks with our host, Richard Wiese, about taking risks and pushing yourself to new extremes in exploration. In 2006, surfers began exploring and surfing on bodyboards in the Nazare´ Canyon area of Portugal. This huge underwater valley creates gigantic waves away from shore and out in the ocean. Watermen started telling surfers stories about these big waves, and some couldn't resist the desire to see them. There was one wave somebody told them was bigger than the rest. It was nicknamed “Big Mama.” She was 0.8 miles out in the ocean, and they used a jet ski to tow surfers out. In 2011, fellow surfer Garrett McNamara set a world record by surfing a 70-foot wave in Nazare´. In his attempt to conquer Big Mama, Hugo studied forecasts and charts to calculate the best time to make his approach. They went out at around 4:30 in the afternoon. There were high wind warnings, but Hugo wanted strong winds. He planned to work with the wind instead of fighting against it. When asked what it was like, Hugo says it was unique, really beautiful, a scenic array of colors. Although he has been surfing for a long time, he was overwhelmed with the intensity of nature and the ocean's hugeness. You might be wondering how Hugo's life changed after conquering Big Mama. He wasn't really prepared for what happened after this worldwide event. He got huge media exposure and lots of interviews. He's able to stay humble, telling us that this whole adventure is a testimony to the magic of teams – supporting and believing in each other… working together for the moment. His surfing partner and best friend, Alex Botelho, was there with him. Another team member, who served as the spotter and videographer, was stationed in a church onshore and nicknamed Jesus. Although you think that surfing might be a solitary sport, a team is necessary. These days, Hugo appreciates the simple things. He remembers to celebrate them with others… the fact that we get to breathe everyday… we're able to walk and smile at each other. It sounds like Hugo Vau has things in proper perspective!

To hear about other explorers, join us for new episodes of Life's Tough: Explorers are TOUGHER! At https://www.lifestough.com/podcast/explorers/. Richard Wiese, the host of this podcast, is an American explorer. He is the author of the guidebook, Born to Explore: How to Be a Backyard Adventurer. He became the youngest person to become president of the Explorers Club in 2002. Richard is also Executive Producer and Host of the PBS weekly television series Born to Explore with Richard Wiese.
The story of how the legendary surfer, Garrett McNamara, pioneered riding the colossal 100ft waves at Nazaré on the Portuguese coast. At Nazaré in 2011 he broke the world record for the biggest wave ever surfed, officially judged to be 78ft (23.8m). Nazaré has since become a centre of big wave surfing. Garrett McNamara spoke to Alex Last about how he first came to surf Nazaré and why he risks his life to ride giant waves.

We’ve had some pretty heavy episodes lately, but this week we’re keeping it chill. And how can we get more chill than a conversation with international big wave explorer Garrett McNamara (and his adorable daughter)? Garrett has done some insane stuff in his days, much of which is documented in his wild memoir "Hound of the Sea: Wild Man. Wild Waves. Wild Wisdom." We’re talking about things like surfing Tsunami waves generated by caving glaciers in Alaska, getting smashed by a 50-foot wave at Mavericks, and breaking the world record for surfing the largest wave in Nazaré, Portugal. We also get into the fear of death that you feel facing these monstrous waves and how Garrett got over it, his top biohacks for healing and recovery, and when to rely on Western medicine versus Eastern healing philosophies. This episode is a whole lot of fun, with some absolutely wild stories, but there are also some great lessons to learn about maintaining your body and health. I mean, this dude was competing at the highest level of big wave surfing in his 50s with kids half his age, so I’m taking notes. 08:30 — Garrett’s upcoming documentary The documentary will cover surfers who have experienced injuries and were told not to go back to big wave surfing 12:05 — Garrett’s rough childhood and how that contributed to his determination to succeed He had to work for everything Developing an unwavering focus on achieving something great His experience with drugs 15:00 — Surfing tsunami waves created by a caving glacier The goal: surfing a wave created by a force other than a low-pressure system Possibly the craziest and dumbest thing Garrett’s done? 19:15 — Facing the fear of death (and getting over it) The process of mastering fear A short glossary of need-to-know surf terms Naming his kid “Barrel” 26:00 — What it was like riding the 78-foot wave in Nazaré Garrett thinks there have been bigger waves ridden since then He wasn’t even planning to surf that day He was actually really frustrated on the wave at first How do they measure big waves? It’s surprisingly controversial What’s it like being put on a pedestal within your field? "The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success: A Pocketbook Guide to Fulfilling Your Dreams" by Deepak Chopra The impact of drug legalization in Portugal 36:40 — The history of surfing and the first humans on record to do it It started in Hawaii as the sport of kings, and only kings could surf 37:50 — His deep relationship with the sea and why he connects so profoundly with the water Surfing was a long-time passion, becoming a pro was a fluke Garrett is actually allergic to saltwater McNamara means Hound of the Sea 41:15 — The epic tale of getting smashed by a 50-foot wave at Mavericks Being out in the deep water without a board Due to modern safety equipment, most wipeouts have been pretty fun, but this one was different How does water break bones?

A lot goes into building a surfboard. In fact, depending on the expertise and the quality of the board, there can be upwards of 39 steps from start to finish. It’s not a fast process and takes a skilled surfer on the shaper to know what a particular board size or shape will do in the water. Take Dick Brewer, the undisputed 83-year-old grandmaster surfboard shaper from Hawaii. Dick has designed boards surfing legends all over the world…the big guys like Laird Hamilton and Garrett McNamara. He says he has made more than 50,000 boards in his lifetime. McNamara says, "He makes the boards that I can trust my life on." Dick doesn’t take that trust lightly since Garrett regularly hunts waves of 100-feet plus to ride. Today, Dick hand-makes about 200 boards a year, putting his crisp, neat signature on each of them with a pencil and some of his custom wood boards sell for as much as $12,000.Dick’s fundamental innovation was to shape the nose and tail of the board into a teardrop rather than an oval, allowing the board to cut into the water more precisely and help surfers ride inside the tube of the wave…this was revolutionary at the time and is credited with helping explode the skills and confidence of the big wave riders and also help newer folks try their hand at the sport. In the previous episode of the Market Dominance Guys, we compared the surfboard to the words or scripts that are used. And the surfer – the professional salesperson who wields and performs those words with an exacting tone, pace, and delivery. And so in this week’s episode, I ask our own grandmaster and sales-pitch shaper – Chris Beall, about the critical nature of the focusing on the first seven seconds of your call to establish true trust and how that simple revelation was akin to Dick’s innovation of shaping the tail of a board into a teardrop and brought about a very similar revolution into our sales craft. This is the Market Dominance Guys and this week’s episode entitled, “The Best Surfer Out There Is The One Having The Most Fun.” Dick’s fundamental innovation was to shape the nose and tail of the board into a teardrop rather than an oval, allowing the board to cut into the water more precisely and help surfers ride inside the tube of the wave. This was revolutionary at the time and is credited with helping explode the skills and confidence of the big wave riders and also help newer folks try their hand at the sport. ----------------The sponsors for our show are:ConnectAndSell.

Wen alles stimmt - der Wind, die Bewegung des Atlantiks, die Richtung, in die die Brecher rollen - dann sind sie die gewaltigsten Wellen an Europas Küsten. Big Waves sind 20 bis 30 Meter hohe Ungetüme. Bis vor drei Jahren nahm die Welt kaum Notiz von Nazaré. Aber dann kam Garrett McNamara. Der King der Big-Wave-Surfer aus den USA. Und mit einem Schlag wurde das kleine Städtchen an der Westküste Portugals weltweit bekannt und ist heute nicht nur Surfern ein Begriff.

Full episode info and Show Notes: www.wearelookingsideways.com Another week, another legend – this time big wave surfer and extreme waterman, the great Garrett McNamara. Garrett was in London for a few days during mid November 2017, so I sat down with him for an hour and look back over his storied, spectacular career. And what stories these are. Whether it's growing up surfing Halewia and then pioneering the outer reefs, or dedicating his life to Nazare, Gmac's life story reads as a guide to big wave surfing's recent history, and in this chat we cover the lot. As it was a week after Cotty's slam at Nazare, we hear Garrett's perspective on that, as well as the details of new Fearless project with Pablo Garcia, and some fascinating stuff on how recovering from his own death-defying wipeout at Mavericks left him facing the biggest emotional and physical test of his life. Yep. there's plenty to get your teeth stuck into here. It was brilliant to speak to Garrett about his life and experiences in such intimate detail - big thanks to Garrett for coming on the show, and to Jordan Williamson at CSM for making it possible. Thanks as ever to Scott Nixon (www.scottnixon.co.uk) for post-production help and Matt Ward (www.linguistine.com) for the theme tune.
The UK might not be the first place that comes to mind when you think of big wave surfing but Andrew Cotton is changing that. When Andrew left school he initially worked at a surfboard factory until age 25 when he re-trained as a plumber and began to realize his passion was in big wave surfing. In 2012 he towed American surfer Garrett McNamara into what the Guinness Book of World Records confirmed as the biggest wave ever surfed. Since then, Andrew has surfed some massive waves himself and is continuously searching for the biggest wave.
Full episode info and show notes: www.wearelookingsideways.com Andrew ‘Cotty’ Cotton is probably the UK’s most high profile surfers and one of the foremost big wave surfers in the world right now. Along with his close friend Garrett McNamara, he’s one of the handful of surfers to pioneer the notoriously heavy beachbreak Nazare in Portugal. His feats, such as towing Garrett into what is considered one of the largest waves ever ridden, back in 2011, routinely make headlines around the world – especially in the UK where he’s achieved some level of mainstream notoriety as much for the fact that he’s a qualified plumber as for his big wave charging. As ever with mainstream media coverage of action sports, these descriptions of Andrew’s feats are massively reductive. Because the reality is that Cotty is one of the most respected watermen in the world today, and he’s travelled a long, hard way from his surfing beginnings on windswept Saunton Beach near where he grew up in Devon. In this conversation, recorded at Red Bull Studios in London in early 2017, we cover a lot of ground – his early surf apprenticeship, his first exposure to really big waves, and his early years working in a surfboard factory and – yes, as a plumber. It’s a great conversation with a fascinating, thoughtful lad, so get stuck in to Andrew Cotton on surfing big waves. Thanks to Nick Smith (www.hiddensound.tv) for post-production help and Matt Ward (https://linguistine.com) for the theme tune.
