I recall seeing a certain photo in a magazine (I forget which publication) a few years ago of a surfer standing on the inside reef in waist deep water, with one or both arms up flipping off a giant set wave that was coming straight for him. I think it was Pipeline.

I'm trying to find this photo but so far internet searches have come up blank. Anyone remember this photo? Maybe someone has it on their computer or has the magazine.

It looks a lot like this photo I found, but the surfer is flipping off the wave

Dang I can't remember! I'm going to ballpark around 4-5 years ago

It *might* have been Clay Marzo but I'm not 100% sure

what do you do in those situations? dive for bottom and hope for the best?

I know this isn't the photo you're looking for, but this instantly popped into my mind...



and here's one of Dane, but he's not flipping off the wave...

Thanks for these, they're all amazing photos in their own right!

I have absolutely no idea what magazine it was in. I should have cut it out. I doubt I still have the mag in question. Might have to raid the Surfing Museum in Oside, I think they have every mag that ever was.

It was such a striking photo though...thought maybe the photog might be lurking here or someone had recalled seeing it
