This is kind of like sailing's equivalent of surfing Mavericks or Jaws...

Do you wear a leash on one of those things?

Always wondered how to actually sail at that level. I've been sailing myself all my life and never even heard of the possibility to sail on boats that size.
Its pretty easy or us to go out there and surf when it's big. But for them, its a totally different story.
