Laird Hamilton is a surf legend and legends never die! This is obvious because he challenged fate in a very special way and impressed the crowd of spectators.
This week, 10- to 15-foot waves formed off the California coast as a remnant of Hurricane Maria, drawing many of Malibu's legendary residents to the water. One of them is definitely Sup-anje specialist Laird Hamilton, who on August 26 staged the so-called "Shooting the pier" in the jargon, which is one of the most daring situations, that is, the first thing that only the bravest and most foolish dare to do. Namely, with the first wave, you hit the pier between the support pillars and, of course, risk your head. But whoever loves it is written among the legends.
