On what can only be described as a gorgeous Northern California Sunday, as the San Francisco 49ers continued their quest towards their sixth Super Bowl, 24 elite big wave watermen gathered in Half Moon Bay, CA to compete in the 2013 Maverick’s Invitational presented by GoPro. The waves were few and far between, not quite massive, but the sun was out, and the wind was mostly absent making for a beautiful day of surfing.
