Big Wave Surfer Ian Walsh shreds Jackson Hole

February 12th, 2009

Ian Walsh has been coming off what he calls "the best big wave season of my life." Storms have been pounding Hawaii and Walsh has been catching them at Jaws and then travelling to Mavericks in California and then down to Todos Santos Mexico. Jackson has recieved almost 20 inches of new snow in the last two days with another 8-10 expected to fall over the next day. Here are a few shots of Walsh sessioning Jackson Hole. You can really see the surfer in his turns.
