There are only a handful of places on the planet – with names like Jaws, Mavericks and Pipeline – where storms generate waves of monstrous proportions. Only a few people possess the skills and courage to challenge Mother Nature’s raw power and ride these towering walls of water. Some of these challenges are successful, others pay the ultimate price. During this winter, some of the largest waves ever recorded are expected to be produced by the El Nino conditions in the Pacific Ocean. This is the story of a small group of surfers and their quest to ride the largest waves ever.

The most wished movie, here on Surf Movies!
In the summer of 2008, iconic surfer and former Pipe Master Rob Machado flew to Indonesia to experience a different kind of surf trip. A journey that would take him way beyond his comfort zone, to the point where he could finally be alone with his thoughts, his desires and the empty perfection of an unnamed Indian Ocean reef. What did he discover? You never stop dreaming. Even when they come true.
