Growing up surfing the best waves in South America, this chick now spends her days chasing the biggest waves in the world - with a paddle in her hand!

Nicole Pacelli has, and she's a chick who knows a big wave when she sees one! While this clip plays through in super slow motion, imagine what it would be like to experience a drop like this yourself. The vibration of water exploding behind you, the roar of 1000 tons of ocean falling meters above your head, and the faint hum of your SUP fins as they fight to hold on to the choppy wave face.

Born in Brazil, and surfing for Red Bull among many other sponsors, the 25 year-old Nicole Pacelli grew up surfing the coastline of South America thanks to her parents who were a professional bodyboarder and surfer. Since the explosion of SUP, she's taken to surfing with a paddle in her hand, and now spends her days chasing the worlds biggest waves.

It takes guts to take a drop like that on a SUP! Would you give it a go?
