Up-and-coming Australian madman Russell Bierke is tackling the world one crazy wave at a time. You might remember him as the precocious 18-year-old who won Cape Fear in 2016. The son of Hawaiian big wave surfer Kirk Bierke, Russell never had a choice, from a young age it was always charge hard or charge home, and that's just what he's done. Growing up on Australia's South Coast meant growing up on a diet of raw ocean energy, the Pacific endlessly broadsiding his hometown of Ulladulla and its plethora of shallow reef slabs and deep water bombies with swell...and it doesn't get much gnarlier than a big 'ol day at his local shallow reef slab Shipstern Bluff. Click play and watch Bierke battle a massive day at Shippies.

I would say the Right and Cyclops comes first and second before Shippys which comes in at number 3 just for fear and raw power. Put the Right and cyclops in either order they tie for fear factor.

@MisterTMH Жыл бұрын
@@jashannon Dead right. A double hold down on an 8 foot day on a beach break can make you really think about who is in charge here. Respect the Ocean. Being dragged across an exposed reef on a wipeout could be nasty unless you have a full length wet suit . Losing skin and flesh on rocks is not fun. Breaking ribs and bones such as my nose happens and is part of the rite of passge!

He said he wouldn't tow cyclops shippys is big and nasty but cyclops is unpredictable sharp shallow reef shark infested and scares the world's best its a wave that only bodyboarders charge apart from a hand full of surfers riding the unrideable cyclops oz scarest slab other wise there would be a hungry pack like ever time the right breaks. There is something more to cyclops a true slab
