Garrett McNamara Big Wave Attack

We received an email this morning from Garrett McNamara that read:

“Aloha Surf Images!

How’s everything going?

I’m super super excited. Just wanted to let you know that Fuel TV is airing the documentary of when we discovered the wave in Portugal. It is pretty good. I am my own worse critic and I liked it. The best part and saddest is when Nicole gets a really bad wipeout and retires from big wave surfing.

If you have time check it out. It is on at 9pm ET/ 6pm PST/ 3pm Hawaii at FuelTV.

Thanks,

Garrett”

“I have no desire to ride a 100 foot wave, it has to be 120 feet that way there’s no doubt about it” – Garrett

Big wave master Garrett McNamara has taken the surf world by storm, conquering a World Record wave off the coast of Portugal. Now join him in Nazare, Portugal, where it all began. This is the account of Garrett discovering a remarkable underwater canyon that causes some of the worlds most giant waves. No one dared surfed these waters before, until now!

Garrett “Gmac” McNamara Signs With Raw Elements Sunscreen

Garrett “GMAC” McNamara – GOES BIG, GOES GREEN, SAVING OUR OCEANS & OUR SKIN
SURF EXPO 2011 – SEPT. 8, 9, 10

Coming off of a busy summer which featured his epic waves in the greatest Cloudbreak swell, touring with WaveJet Eco Friendly Board, East Coast stops through Hurricane Irene for Surfers Healing and the NYC Sea Paddle for Autism, Garrett drops in on Surf Expo 2011.

This stop is especially important to Garrett as he is excited to unveil his newly released Chemical Free Sunscreen Line, RAW ELEMENTS USA. This high performance sunscreen meets all the demands of the most extreme water athletes, yet is gentle enough for use in infant care – all delivered in a chemical free, eco safe solution. The line has recently received the coveted #1 ranking for safety and efficacy by The Environmental Working Group and is the preferred sunscreen of The United States Lifesaving Association. RAW ELEMENTS USA ECO FORMULA 30+ and ECO STICK 30+ are both very water resistant, floating tubes and ECO STICK 30+ can even be applied to wet skin or under water.

“Having been involved throughout the development, I am so excited for the official launch of RAW ELEMENTS USA. It is truly going to take sun care to the next level and I am honored to be a part of it.” McNamara proudly states. “I hardly ever used sunscreen and was always scared to put it on my children because of fear of all the chemicals, I just took ‘the burn’. I have finally partnered up with a chemical free sunscreen that can keep up with me and I can stand behind. I have tested this stuff all over the world, in the most extreme conditions mother nature has to offer. The performance is unreal. Even after long sessions and giant wave poundings it doesn’t move and never stings my eyes.” says GMAC.

Please come down to meet the team at the RAW ELEMENTS USA booth at Surf Expo and check out the sunscreen in action in the water tank. Garrett will be sharing his stories and experiences at the booth for an hour at 12:30pm on Thursday Sept. 8, Friday Sept. 9 and Saturday Sept. 10.
