Laird Hamilton makes surfing look easy. With more than 40 years of involvement in the sport, the waterman evolved to find more adventure. Famous for facing unridden waves, Hamilton escaped death many times and introduced a way to modern tow-in big wave surfing. Talking about his adventurous spirit in an interview, his wife Gabrielle Reece shared a scary incident while surfing on a big wave. But for her, it’s his experience that makes him different from others.

To sit on the rider seat of a surfer who breaks long waves down is indeed something insane. Let’s dig deeper to know what Reece shared in the interview.

How far Laird Hamilton can go?

Definitely, Reece was aware of her husband being among the “freest and wildest humans on the planet”. In many spine-chilling ventures, Reece was there with Hamilton, as she shared, “I don’t know why you would go towards that, like Laird just put me on a ski in front of a wave that’s like 60 feet. And like being on the back of a ski with him driving, there’s a moment when you go okay…and you turn and there’s a six-storey building behind you moving.”
