Big wave charger Charles "Buzzy" Trent has passed away at the age of 77. One of the original big wave hellmen, Buzzy was reportedly the first to refer to a big wave board as a "gun" and was famously quoted as say that "big waves aren’t measured in feet, but in increments of fear.”
Those interested in the pioneering hi-jinks of Buzzy and crew in their prime should watch the first act of Stacy Peralta's Riding Giants.
