Mannanan Big Wave Challenge?

Mike Smyth freeflow photograher IM JUST MAKING A POINT Mannanan Big Wave Challenge? THIS PICTURE PUTS SOME SCALE ON IT!! COLD WATER HOSSEGOR!!!!


Please comment, should I enter this picture of Al into the Mannanan Big Wave Challenge?

I think most of the entries so far have been posted from reef breaks with easy user friendly channels, i think this wave of Al's is pretty impressive as it's much harder to ride waves of this size when the peaks are shifting.

All the same well done Alistair, it was a pleasure to watch you catch some ot the biggest rideable waves Ive ever seen in the Port in the last 15 years.

TO VOTE YES
PLEASE RATE IT AS 5, THEN I CAN COUNT THE INTEREST
THANKS
ANDY

GO RED

Nice bottom turn on a beast of a wave AL. For those that have'nt surfed BIG EAST this is a wave of consequnce I imagine some sound thrashings where dealt out this BIG day.
Again coker pics Andy, never before has the north shore surf scene been so well documented, It is refreshing for someone to get out there in the cold and wet for hours behind the lens.
Perhaps you should pen a little article for Carve magazine I am sure they would document these cracking photos!

All the best

well...go on then

Send it in

This is the only shot to represent the causeway.I dont surf much over here but that looks like a fair size considering big al is well over 6' tall! All the other shots in for the comp don't look as nasty as these ones, bet there were a couple a beatings that day.

Hey! Who is that Kelly girl? shes hot!
