    Riding Jaws at Night





    Surfer Mark Visser surfing at night while wearing a vest covered in LEDs.
    "Riding in complete darkness meant I had to go off feeling," says Visser. "I had to zone out from how you normally ride and just be a part of the wave. I am so pumped to achieve something that no one thought possible and that I was told couldn't be done." Watch a a video of his ride.

    It was fun while it lasted...

      Insane! Jaws would be difficult during the day, much less at night. Hats off!

      Surfing at night is fun, BTW!

            giant waves at night, I'm deathly afraid of the ocean or should I say being IN the ocean, especially at night, sharks and stuff.. which sucks because I'd love to learn how to surf.. definitely a fear I need to conquer at some point

            impressive? hell YES

              It starts with the fact that a wave of that size has never been surfed at night, and for good reason. Those waves can kill you during the day. Surfing a wave at night is a really strange feeling... There's a great deal of force pushing you forward that you simply cannot see. I really couldn't fathom that feeling x 100 on a wave of this size.

              It was fun while it lasted...
