Never have I surfed a day in my life nor have I ever met anyone that has yet this show had me captivated. Very well done and amazing to see these enormous waves being navigated by us little humans.

What an incredible show. I have always been both fascinated and intimidated by surfing and surfers. I grew up skateboarding, but the ocean and the waves... that's something very different and this documentary-series just... I don't know, moved and inspired me deeply. To know that these incredible guys and gals are out there, chasing the next big wave, living their lives dreaming about that next huge swell and how they are going to ride it, puts a smile on my face. A wave is something so beautiful and pure and a surfer riding it, is the perfect expression of what it means to be human... at its/her/his best. No show/ movie I have ever seen about surfing as captured it as beautifully as "100 Foot Wave". Hats off and hang loose!
I really didn't expect to be so captivated by this docuseries, but the footage is phenomenal and the dynamics captured brings a lot of great energy. Garrett, Cotty, and Al Mennie are captivating subjects and are who I was personally most immediately drawn too, but every person involved really is intriguing, especially the dynamic between Garrett and his wife Nicole.
I highly recommend this to both surfer and non-surfers alike, as the footage really is enough to lure people in on its own.

The 100 foot wave is watching this perfect documentary. Unfortunately kids are too busy watching RealHousewives or whatever else crap there is on TV/Netflix. Thank you for HBO. Kept the quality coming.
This is a must see, doesn't matter if you like surf or not. Very well made documentary 👍
Well done.
