Photo captured during "The Heavy Thursday" (2016-Dec-22) swell event. This wave, this moment and these two surfers in particular, marked the beginning of a new phase in the Nazaré Dynamics, Lucas Chumbo (at the bottom) was nominated for biggest paddle wave of the year, and Francisco Porcella (air drop) won the biggest wave award later in the same winter.
As for the outcome of the wave in the photo, it didn't end well, you can spot a drone in the frame, and you can actually watch the drone angle of this moment on youtube: https://youtu.be/Wi9xL-8aKz8 it's as nasty as it gets... 😈
