Garrett McNamara has ridden the longest wave ever in the Tagus River, in Lisbon, Portugal. The big wave surfer caught a wake at the Santo Amaro Dock, and finished his stunt in Belém. McNamara spent 10 minutes riding the same wave under sunny skies and surrounded by media professionals. He used the first minute to get used to the motor-powered wave, and then let the rope go and enjoyed the knee-high wave for 2.4 miles (3.9 kilometers).
