The Big Wave world premiere charity film night - Museum of British Surfing

Join us for a special celebration night with Britain's top big wave rider Andrew Cotton, as we bring you a world premiere of the latest documentary film from the Zon North Canyon team from Nazare in Portugal.

It promises to be a huge night, and is the first opportunity for Cotty's many friends & growing army of fans to congratulate him publicly on his latest achievement - riding a potential world record wave estimated at 80 feet!

This new film shows truly jaw-dropping big wave action from the likes of Andrew Cotton, Garrett McNamara and even a cameo appearance from 11 time world surfing champion Kelly Slater. And you get to see behind the scenes with the intensive training that these athletes go through to cope with riding - and wiping out on - giant Atlantic waves.

Andrew Cotton will be there in person to talk about exploits, plus we'll have one of his tow-in surfboards & wetsuits from the surfing museum's collection on display.
