Meet Big Wave Hellman, Ryan Hipwood

Not scared of a massive keg then mate!

Ryan Hipwood is one of the new breed of Ozzy Big Wave Hellman. He basically spends his life chasing rather large swells around to tow and paddle into very scary waves. Some of his exploits at massive Cloudbreak and the secret slab in West Oz, almost beggar belief. I might have soiled my wetsuit in his position to be frankly honest...
