After a wave-starved winter, Tim Bonython was just about to pack up and head for his summertime bolthole - otherwise known as Nazare - when a low bombed deep in the Indian Ocean.

Tim picks up the story:

"I loaded up the cameras and hit the road west, chasing a wild pulse of swell.

"This time, though, it wasn’t just about the waves but also the man chasing them. Darian Cheffer lives two extremes: one day towing into The Right - a wave he calls “the Everest of big wave surfing" - the next he's digging in the dirt for black gold. Darian works on one of the world’s largest truffle farms.

"This story dives into both worlds."
