This engaging spot for O2 blends compelling new film – shot by Knucklehead’s Maceo Frost – of Steudtner training in Portugal with archive video of his astonishing ride of an 86-foot (26.21 metre) wave – the equivalent to surfing an eight-story building.
Created by Serviceplan Bubble and produced by BWGTBLD, the film is titled The Wave and promotes O2 Germany’s support of Steudtner’s goal to find an even bigger water mountain to glide down.
On October 29 2020, as part of the Red Bull Big Wave Awards, Steudtner set a new Guinness World Record title for the largest wave ever surfed. It was caught at the north beach of Nazaré, Portugal.
This picturesque fishing village has been home to seven of the tallest 10 waves ever surfed and is known as the Mount Everest of big-wave surfing.
The reason for this lies deep under the water. Between October and March, storms over the North Atlantic drive swells towards Nazaré, where they encounter the Nazaré Canyon, a trench with a depth of 5,000 meters, which causes incoming water to pile up into monster waves that can be 30-40 metres or higher. Every wave is an absolute force of nature. Weighing up to 500,000 tons.
