Carlos up for XXL ride of year
Every year, every big wave rider in the world sets their eyes on tracking and chasing down the years biggest swells. In this hunt also comes the chance to make the Billabong XXL big wave awards. Only a handful of guys, literally the very best in the game, get the chance to grace the stage at the XXL awards. Back in 2002, Carlos surfed the biggest wave in the world (at the time), winning the XXL Big wave award and this year, it seems only fit, after getting the cover of surfing mag and being invited to the Eddie Aikua Invitational that he has once again been nominated for the XXL Ride of the Year. Keeping in touch with him, hearing from him and supporting him this past year, has been an unbelievable privilege, so stoked for you Carlos!
