Episode #1.10

Summary Pe'ahi, also known as Jaws, is a perfect, symmetrical, triangular ridge. This ridge causes ocean swells moving at speeds up to forty miles per hour to heave up, grind, and barrel along the ridge. Deep, fast moving water bends inward causing a wrapping effect that forces water in and up toward the surface where it transforms into a massive pyramid of water. This massive water peaks upwards of sixty feet high. English big wave surfer, Andrew Cotton, and New York native, Will Skudin, are invited by Garrett McNamara to come surf the swell at Jaws. Both Andrew and Will have never been to Jaws so this will be a great opportunity to advance in technique and skill. After arriving in Maui, Andrew, Garrett, and Will suit up for a session at Jaws. The reef is producing twenty foot waves; a twenty foot wave is considered less than average by Jaws standards, but here on this reef the swell is magnified. The session goes well, allowing Andrew and Will the opportunity to ride medium sized waves, and learn and understand Jaws' mechanics of wave breaking. After battling the ebb and flow of chaos and glory, they enjoy time with loved ones. The next morning, Garrett and Andrew head back out to Pe'ahi on a mission to get some barrels. They have a memorable session and Garrett is stoked he was able to help Andrew accomplish one of his goals, surfing at Jaws, fulfilling a spirit of big wave surfing; friendship.
