Nathan Florence did not have the session he had planned at Mullaghmore, Ireland, one of the heaviest waves in the world that had its day of glory on November 9.

Of glory and blows too. For one of the heaviest big wave surfers like Florence to say that he came out of the water annihilated, he had to be too heavy.

With all her talent, Florence couldn't handle three monsters, but finally, when she was about to throw in the towel, the glorious one that cured all ills came to her.
