Shipstern Bluff is the craziest wave on the planet and takes big wave surfing to another level! Four boys accepted the challenge and filmed their adventure with the exreme wave. <\/strong>There are only a few waves in the world that are considered unsurfing – the Shipstern Bluff is one of them. It\u2019s also called Devil’s Point and not without reason! Through powerful, multi-faceted inner formations, each wave has a unique appearance that makes an assessment impossible. Only those who are crazy are dying of this wave! The extreme surfers Danny Griffiths, Russell Bierke, Rudi Schwartz and James McKean traveld to the most dangerous place in the world to ride the wave. In a video they show their shots while surfing the wave. You really get a breath and you can hardly see how the surfers are carried along in the wave. But they succeeded! The guys have managed to beat the Shipstern Bluff. <\/p>\n
