  • will9404, on 07/22/2008, -0/+2Ross Clarke Jones is a good surfer, he was one of my favorites growing up...
  • freshyill, on 07/23/2008, -2/+8That headline reads like a bunch of unassociated words. How about "Interview with the surfer who braved Japanese typhoon waves?"
    • meruru, on 07/23/2008, -0/+6I thought it was about an enormous Japanese man; sadly I was disappointed.
  • konsole1981, on 07/23/2008, -1/+2I'm huge in Japan.
  • inputoutput, on 07/23/2008, -0/+2Untapped surf locations?

    Not anymore.
  • Gigglecream, on 07/23/2008, -0/+2He's not that huge.
  • TheMightyDane, on 07/23/2008, -0/+2Those are some huge ass waves..
  • chiapet, on 07/23/2008, -0/+1I use to think the ***** i surfed was big out hear in calif 12ft at it's biggest
    I get the shakes just watching that
    • chrisinsocalif, on 07/23/2008, -0/+1I rode a 12 ft wave, looks huge when you are in the water. It was scary and hurt when i wiped out.
      • chuckDontSurf, on 07/23/2008, -0/+1Did mommy get you a lolli afterwards?
  • kgmurray, on 07/23/2008, -1/+2I didn't think I would ever see the words "surfer" and "career" in the same sentence.
  • TaintedBlu, on 07/23/2008, -0/+1This guy must have huge, huge nuts.

    Huuuuge nuts.
  • diceau, on 07/23/2008, -0/+2This is impressive to anyone ... but phenomenal to people who surf and know what it's like being on/watching a wave that could kill you quite easily.
  • RocquesDiggs, on 08/28/2008, -0/+1It is all in the attitude, training, and time spent learning. Some people are just great big wave riders. I never knew about this website and I really enjoyed the videos. Chiapet I have one word for you and it is "Mavericks".
    I have seen Steamer Lane, Santa Cruz, CA with some pretty big surf that I would say was over 12ft. My friends were out in it (back in the day). I am talking front side measuring, not backside.
    California can get over 12ft.
    Now give me my remote controlled surfer and I can live through her.

    Thanks again for sharing the video.

  • Cornrider, on 07/23/2008, -0/+1He reminds me of Jeremy Teh_Pwnerer from Pure Pwnage, yeah like Kyle, I like surf those waves using micro and like pwn all the n00bs that try to get us killed and stuff
  • boywundah, on 07/23/2008, -0/+1"Vaya con Dios, Brah."
  • GhostPanther, on 07/26/2008, -0/+1Wow.
