You are getting closer, but still not there.

27.7 meters equals 90.9 feet

According to the online calculator - 27 meters is 88.58 feet.

And at that tall, what's +/- 7 feet?

There is an IMAX movie filmed in (IIRC) 1998 off the North Shore of Oahu where some guys were surfing waves nearly that size.
