Dateline, Tavarua, Fiji: It had never happened before. And it will be hard for any subsequent event to match it: 24 legendary surfing competitors were spirited away to a private island for a Masters contest in 6-8 spitting barrels. The legend-class surfers all accepted the invite. And while the quality and depth of the tubes at Cloudbreak are of an all-time nature, it's the surfing itself that will blow your mind. The Masters includes an in-depth investigation of the Tavarua experience, all-time historical surf action gleaned from the era's finest flick, "Free Ride," on-edge performance, perfect tubesm and wide-open adventure with the waveriders who 'busted down the door" building a lasting foundation for professional surfing.
