Wave Of The Day: Lucas Chumbo’s Nazare Bomb

‘Big’ is such a subjective word, especially in surfing. ‘How big is it’ is probably one of the most asked questions in all of surfing. The answers are always different.

Now, scale those questions up to mountain-sized, and you’re left with whatever happened at Nazare over the weekend — with Lucas Chumbo surfing the biggest wave of the day, perhaps in his life as the man himself says, in conditions that really shouldn’t have been surfable.

We tapped up Mr Chumbo to talk us through his decision to get out there, the wind, is onshore the new offshore? And a few more bits. Hit play!
