Surfing Ike : Port Aransas Texas

[thebentley71]

Ya Back in the 80's from about 84 to 90 myself Bentley, Scott Happy, Steven & Marvin Bexley, Chico& Jacime Martinez, & of course oh double J, John Johnson used to surf Horace Caldwell pier, St, Joe Island & G street all summer long. Those were the best years of my life!!! Peace out The Bentley.

[shaymth]

[thefithpower]

[courtland3cdc]

you should just take the music off and keep the original film audio.

[longliveMUIR]

Never surfed in Port A but hit a few at Bob Hall Pier in Corpus and they too were some great waves but this looks like a lot of fun!! Great Vid man! thanks for sharing!

[artehaleychoke]

[1WorldDocumentaries]

[MarkLeviBetancourt]

I live in port a. Its fun. But stay away we dont want you here. sorry

[Justs99171]

@MarkLeviBetancourt Are you stupid? The economy of Port Aransas is entirely dependent on tourism.

[The40wisdom]

can't wait to visit!

[glitter7mc]

sweet vid!

[joant1221]

I didn't know Port Aransas had so many surfers and so many waves to surf on.

[justafloatin]

Ha..Just found a segment with me tring to get a little head cover on the outside of the pier, starts at 3:48.haha.Nope def no barrel on the outside,lol. Funny though.

[BinkyStalls]

saw a kid die just like that on :27 on Bob Hall Pier.

[jeanqbxx]

hey guys, it has been flat for months, when do you guys think we might have some waves??

[cod4surfer]

hey man. waves have been picking up with the winter. red tide right now but its passing by quickly... the swells have been mainly hitting the weekends. great time to get your board out and chill B-)

[Sandytx1]

That Is totally insane !! They are good.. But Crazy.. with a Hurricane in the Gulf !!..

[biglu30]

@Sandytx1 yeah but they just got the swells

[colbyboyd123]

you guys rock, im thinking of trying surfing but ive never seen port aransas to be surfable

[onewiththeuniverse88]

and i think the song kind of rocks

[onewiththeuniverse88]

The guy at 1:02 looks like he is so N'Sync with the song to me for some reason! ha

Damn this looks awesome. Way better than it has been the last 2 weeks..

[strakerak]

i surfed waves as tall as that in port aranses

that does not look like surfing ike

[almasquillante]

Way to go Don! I didn't know you were THE MAN out there!  You think you know someone and then see them doing what makes them happy. Way to go!

[BeLiEvEr312]

Hrm...this is Horace Caldwell, I see something 'bout "the surf" in Port Aransas on flyers..everywhere. C-O-O-L!!!

[mustardbubble]

and its nott even barreling

[kersez]

you oughta check out the shots of stand-up-in-the-tube barrels that got taken on 11-21-09. hurricane surf is overrated.

[mustardbubble]

[Courtn3yRul3z]

dang i never knew we got big waves like tht

[mustardbubble]

ya but it takes a cat 5 storm to so. better then payin fares for hawaii trip

[petrie141]

What pier is this at?

[PortAVideo]

Horace Caldwell Pier in Port Aransas

[cod4surfer]

horace caldwell pier

[pacebrasser1]

i was in galveston surfing the swell the day before it hit.

i was the only kid out there!

[unsolvedmysterie]

i had to stop this at 0.04  WTF is wrong with the music

[PortAVideo]

Youtube keeps making me change the music. Talk to them

[unsolvedmysterie]

ok, if they want you to change the music constantly... i think you should start by adding some ska music, rock music or something that has to do with surfing... last thing i'll think about surfing, is this gay music....

MY OPINION

[WhoNeedsTheAlphabet]

you should get a better song

[superchick72000]

hey! that was me jumping off the pier in the beginning of the vid! ha. awesome.

[mattbpatterson]

more fun than staying in your house in the dark for 12 days. I wish I could have gone.

[coleb37]

damn i must of got there to early..the waves were a mess

[rdevarga]

Hey that was Randy Martin of ZEM Surfboards doing that backwards move on the tanker

[PortAVideo]

Yes it was. He hung out on the pier with me for a while on the pier while I was filming. Hope he came out OK up in Surfside, it sure looks a mess there..

[guccigurl1231]

hey i wuz there!

[bipper23]

Cool vid. i'll be there with Wolf in October. Y'all stop by Port "A" SurfCo and say hi to Chris Shannon our "Family Surf Community" leader.

BIP, Wolf

[asonjdj]

Wow, those look like fun long boarding waves, kinda mellow and long lines.

[PortAVideo]

This is actually two days. It opened up Thursday morning, closed up late in the day and reopened Friday afternoon. Great thing about days like this, there is something for everyone.

[cod4surfer]
