Laird Hamilton is an athlete, surfer, model and television host. He is one of today’s best known big wave surfers.
Surfline once wrote: “There is no bigger set of balls in the universe than the pair in Laird Hamilton’s shorts.” Well, no argument here. Whether we’re talking about his co-invention of tow surfing, his epic ride for the ages on the Millenium wave, or his well-deserved reputation as the most accomplished living waterman, Hamilton has repeatedly set and reset the high bar for what’s achievable in the ocean.
