00:50 The Quiksilver In Memory of Eddie Aikau is the world's most prestigious surf event and the world's best big wave surfers are now officially on call. EpicTV Surf Editor Dave Mailman explains the details of this unique event. To get more info, check out his blog post at http://daily.epictv.com/blog/2012/11/12/surfing-eddie-would-go/ 01:45 World records are dropping like crazy at the Suunto Vertical Blue freediving event. The organizer, William Trubridge -- current record holder in the Free Immersion and Constant Weight Without Fins categories -- runs through the highlights. 03:10 In the Vendee Globe round-the-world race, British skipper Alex Thomson has steadily worked his way up from the middle of the pack to second place as the fleet nears the treacherous south Atlantic. Want to know what ridiculous songs get stuck in his head while he's trying to stay awake and avoid crashing into submerged icebergs? So did we, so we asked him. 5:01 Snowboarder John Jackson is more popular than ... umm ... bacon. We skyped him up to get the down low on filming Art of Flight, the end of former sponsor Forum Snowboards, and whether a certain performance-enhancing drug should be banned or promoted in snowboarding.
