Big wave surfers fly to Fiji but the world tour's surfing event is being staged at the exact same location at the exact same time.

With a giant swell on the horizon, competitors scramble to find the right equipment; a bad injury changes fortunes.

Like kids in a candy store, the best big wave surfers hit the line up as the world tour event is put on hold and eventually called off for the day.

The surfers show their prowess and ride the waves of their lives on Thundercloud Reef; the culmination of the swell leads to a life-threatening situation.
