Mark Healey—Monster Swell 2018

Late afternoon the numbers had dwindled and only a hardcore crew chose a second session. The late afternoon light creates some of the most spectacular moments to photograph the waves in all their glory as the dark dirty water turns into a sparkling sea.

Mark had broken several boards already on the first swell, a few days previous. He would now fly new guns from Hawaii.

Enter Mark Healey; a red board, he drops into a late pitching lip, one of the largest sets of the day. Deceptively easy (or at least he makes it look that way) nurturing his rail into the face of the wave to lay a bottom turn into one truck-driving barrel.
