A 14-strong team has surfed into the world record books by riding a wave on a single giant surfboard in Cornwall
Tuesday's record bid was held at St Ives, on a 37-feet board weighing 400lb.
On their fourth attempt the team of 12 men and two women stood up and surfed into shore together, setting the first official world record for the most people riding a single board.
The team included the cream of British surfers, as well as an Australian and three South Africans.
Britain's surf champion Alan Stokes, 22, said riding the two feet wave with his team was not easy.
