  • TBT: On October 29, 2013, big-wave surfer Maya Gabeira made news as the biggest surf story of the year. When one of the largest swells to date had hit Nazaré, off the coast of Portugal, surfers from around the globe made their way to conquer these massive waves - including big names like Maya Gabiera and Carlos Burle. Charging the biggest wave ever surfed by a woman to date, Maya almost drowned. What came out of this death defying moment was a life-changing experience and a powerful story of resilience that still remains with the surfing world.

      Curious... how does it compare to the men’s record? They are blowing this up now I think because of Ruth Bader Ginsburgs death since she was a Feminist icon

      You mean she wiped out and almost died again on the biggest wave a woman has ever wiped out and almost died on...Truth.

      @@benshearts5655 Compares like this... For men to get a record they have to actually ride the wave out... She wiped out again and had to be rescued...AGAIN. They count it as a record because she is a chick.

    After watching interview between Graham Bensinger and Maya named, -"Maya Gabeira on the wipeout that nearly killed her"- recorded about 2 years after this one, it's so sad to realize how much she was trapped in this so called business relationship with this guy Carlos, young and naive girl. It's also interesting to see what she looked like and behaved like in the state when what she said contradicted her inner authenticity, which btw came to the light in the following years, as in the given example.

    Adoro Maia Gabeira, guerreira, tenho uma filha nessa idade. Acompanho sua carreira. Gosto muito de escutar Maia falando em inglês, ela tem um inglês limpo e fácil de entender. Tenho uma sugestão a fazer: O que é postado de Maia no Instagram não nos é dado o prazer de curtir então fica uma postagem fria, sem emoção. Particularmente acho que isto é uma falha, já que é Maia uma pessoa muito querida. Quando gostamos de uma pessoa ou da história de uma pessoa pública, sempre a curtimos e há entusiasmo e verdade de sentimento em fazê-lo. Pense nisso Maia.

    Crazy...I rode my biggest wave as a teenager at Cottons, Calif. It was about 7 feet, Mike Lloyd was there he could verify it. I am not a "Surfer" since I got a screw in my shoulder (It hurts to paddle over my head) I now work at believing on moving mountains in the Spirit of Christ (far more meaningful than risking my life on a wave). I've gone to Africa, I was used to heal a group of children's belly aches and then they wanted Christ and wanted to go to Heaven! In over 30 years I have moved mountains thru love and faith, I still have hopes of moving larger ones. So, in once since this is my way of riding big waves spiritually and meaningfully. I think almost anyone could move big mountains with enough faith and love, very few people in the world can ride the largest waves in the world and live to talk about it.
