Laje bomba na California /Monster slab
!english version avaliable!
Laje bomba na Califórnia enquanto todos os olhos estavam voltados para a competição em Mavericks.
Um grupo de big riders atacaram esse pico na costa central da Califórnia. Christian Enns domou esta onda impressionante. A força do lip e toda a onda parecia que iria engolir Christian. Mas, ele se saiu bem. Outras bombas foram fotografadas, mas esta onda foi o destaque.

English version.
California Monster Slab bombs wile all eyes were on the Maverick’s Contest.
The day was big and clean, the best most consistent swell of the season. A tight nit group of chargers showed up to reap the benefits of this massive swell. Van Curazza, Chris Ward, Chad Jackson, Christian Enns, Eric Akiskalian and Chris Brown were all whipped into beasts on this day. While the Mavericks contest stole the show, these guys quietly pulled into some of the biggest tubes California has ever seen! The waves were so big in fact that a 47 ft Coast Guard boat flipped over in 20ft waves while attempting to rescue Chris Ward, his girlfriend and Maui Tow surfer David Langer from Wardo’s 13ft Sea Pro boat that broke down 1 mile from show. The Coast Gurd Boat flipped over and ejected Chris Ward and His Girlfriend into the 52 degree water without wetsuits! Luckily Ed Guzman and Don Curry were there to swiftly retrieve the ejected people. Luckily nobody was hurt and everyone got great waves… Another day in Paradise!
