LISBON - Surfer Alex Botelho was in hospital in stable condition on Tuesday night after a horrific incident during the inaugural Nazare Tow Surfing Challenge on the central coast of Portugal, which boasts some of the biggest waves in the world.
The unconscious surfer was tossed around in the violent surf before support staff managed to get him to the beach, put him on a backboard and get him to an ambulance. “A heartfelt thank you to the safety and medical teams for their quick response. We are wishing Alex a full and speedy recovery.”Nazare’s monstrous waves are magnified by an underwater canyon 5km deep which ends where the North Atlantic meets the shoreline near the former fishing village.
