Saturday saw perhaps one of the biggest and cleanest “rideable” swells to hit Newquay and the Cribbar in years. There was a pretty rare but perfect combination of wind and swell over the weekend, which is always an incredibly exciting recipe for photographers and big wave surfers alike. I can’t even imagine what it’s like paddling out in conditions like these, so I stayed safe on the shoreline watching and photographing the shear power of the ocean. Most of these shots are from Cribbar looking out towards Fistral Beach, my local break.
