Mark Visser at TEDxNoosa 2014

Mark Visser: Big Wave Surfer and Ocean Adventurer Bio: Mark Visser is an Australian big wave surfer and ocean adventurer. Using innovative technology, he spends his time tracking down some of the biggest waves on the planet and pioneering unique ways to surf them. Mark's feats are not only about surfing but also about adventure, exploration and staying alive in situations that some consider impossible. On January 20, 2011 Mark made history by achieving a night ride on 30- to 40-foot waves at the infamous Jaws break in Maui. Known globally as Night Rider, this project was a true world first and was the beginning of an upcoming adventure documentary called Nine Lives. If riding huge waves at night wasn't enough, Mark's second project, Operation Deep Blue, follows him and his team as they parachute out of a specialised aircraft -- with their Jet skis and surfboards -- into storm swells miles out to sea in search of 'freak' waves. No athlete has ever gone to such lengths to find these waves, let alone surf them. Mark's remaining Nine Lives projects involve never-before-seen technology and breathtaking feats of human strength and endurance. www.markvisser.net Title: Ocean Space Synopsis: Mark Visser is a big wave surfer & ocean adventurer who has discovered new big wave locations.
