More than 100 surfers rode a wave at the Earthwave beach festival in Muizenberg, Cape Town on Sunday to break the Guinness World Record Record #sailingrecord for the ‘most surfers riding the same wave’.
“We estimated that there were more than 120 surfers on the fifth of the seven waves surfed at Muizenberg during Earthwave,’ said Paul Botha of Kahuna Promotions, the founders of the event that leverages the publicity generated by the world record Record #sailingrecord attempt to promote awareness of climate change and sustainable lifestyles.
“However, the photographic evidence we have so far shows that there were 103 on the same wave, which is enough to overtake the record Record #sailingrecord of 100 set by Earthwave Brazil in Santos last year,” Botha added. “We are still waiting for more images and video footage that we will submit to the Guinness World Record organisation Organisation #organisation in London to have the record ratified.”
