Summary Episode 4 of the surfing documentary BEATING THE BIG WAVE primarily deals with the difference between the surfing styles paddle-in and tow-in. Not every spot is suitable for both types: Tom Butler, a charming professional surfer checks out spots around the world regarding their geographic specifics and their impacts on the wave. These distinctions also play a part in the construction of surf boards. At the surf board workshop of Australian shaper Bert Burger we watch him developing so-called high-tech boards. In Nazaré world record holder in big wave surfing, Garrett McNamara, explains to us why this location in particular is seen as the "Mecca" of the big wave surfing circuit.
