"A British woman is waiting on confirmation she has broken the world record for the biggest wave ever taken on by a female surfer. Laura Crane, from Devon, rode what she described one of the most perfect big waves in Portugal on Saturday. The 30-year-old believes the wave was bigger than the 73.5 ft one surfed by current world record holder Maya Gabeira of Brazil in 2020. Ms Crane took on the wave while she was competing at the Nazare Big Wave Challenge."
