Hobart’s Michael Brennan, is in the running for one of the world’s top big wave surfing awards.
The 19 year-old was the only Australian nominated for the ‘ride of the year’ award which recognises the most amazing performance by a big wave surfer captured on video.
Brennan was chosen for his death defying ride on a monster wave at Shipstern Bluff on the Tasman Peninsula in January.
He is vying with four other surfers from around the world for the $56,000 prize.
