Artist's Description
Cliff-angle view of a surfer who was towed into this wave at Jaws on 1-10-2004. Because of the high camera-angle, this makes the wave look bigger than the water-angle shot. On this day the biggest waves were breaking left. A surf magazine called this the biggest left ever surfed, about 70 feet high. The surfer, Laird Hamilton, is 6'3" tall.
