This is Andrew Cotton from North Devon surfing a wave in Portugal during the St Jude storm a couple days ago. He was the guy who towed American Garrett McNamara out to the previous record breaking 78 footer in November 2011. Garrett returned the favour. @Andre I tried to find the original thread but couldn't. Apparently their Brazilian friend Carlos Burle may have broke the record on the same day
