Big Wave exploration with Russell Ord Photographer


Russell Ord is based in Margaret, Western Oz and he's out there on his jet ski on a regular basis hunting for unridden, outer reef bombies with some WA tow-in hellmen. We're fortunate enough to feature some of Russ's work on our website and in my humble opinion he's one of the best surf photogs out there, capturing waves and surfers from ever varying perspectives and always with amazing clarity. I always look forward to updates from Russ to hear about the new waves he's found and the latest shots didn't disappoint. The shot here was taken 60km offshore, when they found a mutant slab grinding across an previously unexplored reef. However Russ explained that they won't be visiting the spot again soon as it was just too dangerous!...which when coming from guys who chase waves at Cyclops (check out Russ's awesome double page pic in this issue of The Surfers Path Mag) and the Box, you know its a serious spot.
