Bringing the ‘cool’ back to surfing. Or hurricanes. Or idiocy.

These guys are insane. I would be scared to death if I were caught in a wave this big, and wouldn’t have a clue what to do! I went to the big beach in Maui once and had a hard time getting into the water, and the waves were a tenth the size of these.

These are the Billabong Ride of the Year nominees, and the top five under consideration were Manoa Drollet, Ian Walsh, Shane Dorian, Carlos Burle, Michael Brennan. Each wave was equally gnarly, but who would you guess took the winnings?

I have heard of and seen regular surfing. It’s an amazing sport that takes more bravery and skill than I could muster.

But I think even some of the best surfers might shy away from this extreme form of their sport:

Glacier surfing.

Surfing Rocks!

Surfing is a competitive, difficult and amazing sport. Over the past week, I’ve been checking out the most awesome surfing videos out there. We’ve got painful wipeouts, cool music videos, wacky commericals, and even surfing mice. Yes–surfing mice!

I walked away from all of these videos with one thought in my mind: if mice can surf, why can’t I?

Watch as this surfer is brutally attacked by a Great White Shark. This is “Jaws” come to life!

This video includes an interview with the surfer, who explains his terrifying point of view during the attack. Then, we get to watch the video again in slow motion, where we see that the surfer was actually attacked by two sharks!

Thankfully, the surfer walked away with minor injuries to his right arm. He was extremely lucky! As he says, he was staring at the shark; they were “face to face”!

I’m going to think twice before getting into the ocean again. There’s no shame in swimming in a pool, right?

Get ready to be shocked . . . because these mice are absolutely crazy. You won’t believe that they can actually surf on tiny mice-sized surfboards! They surf better than surfers I’ve seen on the beach. I could watch these mice hang loose all day!

These surfing mice have a name: the Radical Rodents. They primarily surf in rivers, but the waves are definitely big enough for them! They have been surfing for three years, and they’re still going strong.

This video has made me re-think my take on rodents. If I could be assured that the mice in my home surfed, I would stop setting out the mousetraps!
