Bansai Wave

A surfing type of wave that is growing in size as you approach it. The bansai wave peaks and crashes on a surfers board or boat at the exact time to cause maximum damage and disorientation.

Bansai Wave is also known as a Suicide wave.
"Jesus John, dont paddle out yet, thats a bansai wave building out there."

shock wave

Typically, when air is displaced by a pressure wave, it moves at the speed of sound. These pressure waves can be generated from one's vocal cords (when speaking), the vibration of an object, or the impact of one object against another. However, in certain cases, the pressure wave is generated by a collision between air parcels, such as when lightning heats the air immediately around it. This rapidly-expanding air crashes into the cooler air around it, generating a massive spike in pressure followed by a sharp drop-off. It is this sharp spike and drop-off combination that differentiates a sound wave and a shock wave. Shock waves can be either naturally generated, in the case of volcanic eruptions, lightning strikes, and asteroid impacts; however, they can also be generated through man-made means, such as explosives that derive their power either from chemical energy that is converted into thermal energy or by way of nuclear fission or fusion. If the pressure differential occurs in air where clouds can condense, the act of high pressure passing through the area and low pressure following can cause temporary "Wilson clouds" to form.
The shock wave generated by the explosion in Beirut generated Wilson ring clouds and severely damaged the city of Lebanon.
