Yes, there is a special class of surfer out there that has the skill to ride these giant waves, and you meet some of the legends of the sport in this book. This book explains the science behind waves, what the future may hold, and the people that love to ride them. These waves are not only difficult to explain, but they seem to be increasing in frequency. It is shocking to learn how many ships still go missing at sea today. Well, after reading this book I’ll be scanning the horizon much more actively in open water! While on a boat in the middle of the ocean last year I warily looked around and thought, I’m safe, there’s no way one of those could possibly happen here. After reading The Perfect Storm years ago the idea of rogue waves, anomalies of the ocean that can reach a hundred feet high, has always kind of stayed in the back of my mind. ![]()
