“One of the best waves I’ve ever seen in a surfing contest, ever.” That’s what BWT Commissioner Mike Parsons said about Ian Walsh’s perfect 10 at the Pe’ahi Challenge. It came soon after the first perfect 10 of the event, an absolute monster that Ryan Hipwood found.
Hippo’s wave was insane–it was very clearly a perfect 10. But when Walsh pulled out of the tube, it was clear the scale needed another few notches.
