Surfers in Alaska ride waves for an astonishing five miles

For most surfers, a really long ride might last about 20 seconds and cover 50-60 yards, so imagine the thrill experienced by a group of standup paddlers recently when they rode waves for a distance of nearly five miles -- amid the splendor of the pristine Alaskan wilderness.

Reminds me of those guys who will take a speedboat out to tankers and surf their humongous wakes.
