Not by the Playbook

Available for over a year

Brazilian surfer Maya Gabeira speaks to Âé¶¹Éç Sportshour's Caroline Barker to reflect on surfing the biggest wave of the year. She tells us the sound of the 22.4 meter high wave crashing at the bottom will live with her forever as she has never been so scared. Gabeira also recalls how she was almost killed by a wave at the same beach in 2013. Photo: Maya Gabeira competes in Rio (Credit: Kelly Cestari/World Surf League via Getty Images)
