100 Foot Wave S1-3
100 Foot Wave chronicles the adventures of big wave surfing legend Garrett McNamara, his wife Nicole, and their friends and fellow surfers in Nazaré, Portugal, as they push the boundaries of their sport and the limits of their minds and bodies.
Season 2 was the most nominated documentary series at the Emmys, where it won Outstanding Cinematography for two years in a row. 100 Foot Wave S1 took home Outstanding Sports Programme from the Producers Guild of America, with Season 2 also nominated.
100 Foot Wave is directed by award-winner Chris Smith (HBO’s Branson) and executive produced by Emmy, Golden Globe, and Tony winner Joe Lewis (Fleabag).
Decider says, “Gorgeously shot and scored, Season 3 of 100 Foot Wave again dives deep into the world of professional surfing, where driven personalities like Garret McNamara try to balance their everyday lives – and their very mortality – against bigger and bigger feats of professional surfing glory.”
