Big Wave Tow-In Guide | 'Maya Gabeira: Return to Nazaré'

Surfing the big waves of Nazaré isn't as simple as just jumping in the water and paddling out. Carlos Burle runs through the extensive list of equipment he uses when he tows into the huge waves of Nazaré, including what he needs if things go wrong.

After a horrific crash in Nazaré almost took her life, big wave surfer Maya Gabeira fights to overcome physical and mental obstacles and return to surf the giant waves again. In "Return to Nazaré" her determination is undeniable, as is the danger of tempting fate twice.

Weighted board? Why not just use more fiberglass so it's stronger too?

great setup tech. the o2 setup is unfortunately lacking. relying only on a simple/complex re-breather can produce dangerously ill effects, especially under duress. even a "simple" mask, as they are called can prove ineffective. a good kit will include nasal cannulas to prevent over saturation of o2 levels which can be deadly. just like with parts on an airplane, supply redundancy is a must with medical grade oxygen. tubing/tank tools/ pulse-oximeters/backup tank/regulators is imperative. he mentioned having a course, but it was obvious he wasn't on top of the situation, oxygen is a medically prescribed drug in almost every country, I trust red bull will stay on this. after all, what they do is nothing but spectacular!!!
