I can’t either. Never saw anything that big, not even close. But it’s worth mentioning that period is maybe more important than height. I’ve been in 30 foot waves that were 200 yards apart. No big deal, just huge fast swells. I’ve been in 10-15’ers that were evil, with vertical faces and very close together.

Used to surf the West coast.......some 10 ft waves were very rideable and others weren’t

Try surfing the Wedge at 10ft...and you might get killed.

I surfed it maybe 3 times..when the swell was just right.

Those were the days......
