French surfer's biggest wave - B1+


French surfer's biggest wave - 5th December 2019

Nazaré in Portugal is famous for its massive waves.

Surfers travel to surf the giant waves and spectators come to watch some of the highest people have surfed.

Justine Dupont, a French surfer, has spent four winters riding Nazare's huge waves. Recently, she caught her highest so far.

The world record for a woman surfer is held by Brazilian Maya Gabeira. The wave was 68 feet.

The World Surf League validates new records and is checking Justine Dupont's wave. They will not announce the measurements until the WSL Big Wave Awards in May 2020.
