Surfing

That's Sugar, the surf dog riding the biggest wave ever by a dog his size in a small dog surfing contest. It happened this weekend at Surf City Surf Dog -- a weekend-long event in Huntingdon Beach, California. We've got lots of pictures of the event too, which means you get to experience the whole thing without succumbing to massive wet dog funk. You're welcome.

If you're a surfer, you'll find yourself with a problem. Once the Sun goes down, it's hard to catch some waves. Pukas Surfboards would like to change that by adding some LEDs.

Pro surfer Garrett McNamara recently set a world record for the largest wave ever surfed after catching a gargantuan 78-footer off the coast of Portugal. Dude, gnarly!

In order to mark the start of summer in Australia, 17 surfers converged on Bondi Beach with glow-in-the-dark wetsuits and surfboards. The resulting footage of their neon night surfing is exactly how you'd imagine the characters of 'Tron' catching some killer waves.

In the world of big wave surfing, there's Garrett McNamara and then there's everyone else. Not content to simply surf by on big waves, McNamara recently set a world record for surfing the biggest: a 90 foot monster off the coast of Nazaré in Portugal. That's taller than an eight story building!

A 27-year-old California man narrowly survived a horrific shark attack while surfing 150 yards offshore in the waters off Marina State Beach on Saturday.

Argentinian professional surfer Aritz Aranburu made the sport even flashier by affixing L.E.D. lights to his board. The effect is pretty incredible: When Aranburu surfs at night, it looks like there's a giant glow stick darting in and out of the waves.

The Red Bull Surf Team recently shot footage of pro surfers Bruce Irons, Kolohe Andino and Jamie O’Brien catching some Indonesian waves -- with emergency flares attached to the back of their boards.

An extreme shark encounter was inadvertently caught on tape by Orlando Sentinel photographer Jacob Langston while he was filming a group of surfers at New Smyrna Beach, Florida. A four-foot spinner shark suddenly emerged from the water and did a barrel roll over an unsuspecting person. Totally gnarly, bro!
