Riding a 70 Foot Wave * To Completion

Tags: , ,

Towed by a ski boat to the top of a 70-foot wave * Californian, Mike Parsons then rode it to completion.

‘Billabong Odyssey’ has been described as being the most ambitious surf film ever undertaken. Filmed over the course of two years, the film explores the adventures of a team of surfers on their quest to find and surf the biggest wave on the planet.

The film tracks expeditions to a variety of exotic locations all around the world, including Mavericks in Northern California, Todos Santos Island in Mexico; Cortes Bank in the Pacific, the outer shoals of the Hawaiian Isles of Oahu and Maui; Tahiti; and reefs in Australia, France and Spain.

The first preview I saw of this film, ended with Mike Parsons disappearing beneath a mammoth bed of foam filling the entire screen. And the big question for me was whether Mike survived what must have been a ride of a life-time.

Fortunately Mike did come out of the wave alive as this particular preview now shows.

So that the next question is ‘What does it take to risk one’s life for one’s passion?’ Without speaking to Mike I’d say ‘Certainty’ * ‘Certainty’ that he had acquired all the skills and had the emotional and mental as well as physical strength to DO IT.

Yours in personal F * R * E * E * D * O * M
