I haven't been out there since 1973 When I was in college (UCLA). I remember surfing out there and wiping out several times. People don't realize those waves break right near the shore Also the waves close out fast So going through them in a barrel are non existent. The waves use to be between 18-20 feet back in the day.
I live on the east coast and still surf at age 56y/o
Thanks for all your comments. I will be placing new videos from the Newport, Huntington beach, and laguna area very shorty. We just had some really big swell and im in the process of really putting together some quality footage. Keep the trash talk coming
April to September is the swell window. The large swells depend on when there are storms. As far as trying to plan a trip in advance its pretty hit and miss.
I live a couple miles from the wedge and I go there all the time which makes me a "local". if you lived right on the wedge like my aunt that doesn't make you a local because my aunt never goes to the beach, especially the wedge. if you lived in Kansas and came to newport beach everyday that would make you a local. bottom line is... it doesn't matter where you live, it's how often you go to the beach.
I live in Florida, but I completely understand what you're saying. That's the root of localism. We just wanna keep our sptos looking good and not have people disrespecting what we love. ...Sebastian Inlet local here.
the wedge is great to watch if you like watching jousting to actually go out and boogie board surf or body surf it with a sound mind I dont think its possible youhve to be part loon to do it I MET A DOCTOR WHO BODYSURFED IN the 70s there and I couldnt believe he was goin to school and do the WEDGE at the same time I SURFED18 ST which kicked my ass totally respect the beach thx
I dont know Im from Hawaii and Im visiting family for summer and I have only gone here about 5 or 6 times but everytime i have went except once there were head high waves. The one time it wasnt it was completely flat
This is the only place I bodyboard in socal. Wedge today wasnt that crowded and waves were overhead at times. I say the good sets were 8 feet alot of side waves came through today as well
its almost like surfers are insecure with themself you know.. cause you cant charge some of the heaviest places in the world you guys got teahpooo but wait so do bodyboarders.. go charge tasmania. shipsterns. cyclops then you can come talk.. you know what go look at the cover of bodyboarder you will see whats up...
Hahaha wow. Yes its rocks where they crash because there would tottaly be people surfing so they can get smashed and cut up by rocks everytime right? ha. No its straight soft sand under the water but if u crash with it it feels like sand paper on yr back. So obviously it hurts like a bitch. Dont go there if yr not a local.
I love this video.. I want to go here some day and eat some sand.. heh my favorite comment was "if you're surfboard goes one way and your body goes another that's going to HURT!" actually it doesn't.. hehe it pulls on your leg a bit thats it.. what hurts is hitting the sand after going over the falls heh
what the fuck surfing isnt about whos better, its about surfing, i myself am a bodyboarder and i still respect surfers, fuck they can do shit we cant, and we can do shit the cant so if your hating on any type of surfer your a fucking poser
bodyboarders "surfing" the wedge. they are bodyboarding, not surfing, just to clear that up. why dont you bodyboarders get some real skillz and learn how to stand up on a board, not lay down like pussies
haha real skillz ? you say? as if surfers have real skillz...apart from like the top 10 surfers... all you fuckheads do is kook ride the wave and cut back,ride,cutback,ride,cutback.... WOW SO ENTERTAINING.......bodyboards do sick airs and spins.......bodyboarding has to much skill for you so you bag it out......get over yourself you fuckeng keyboard warrior
once again, another fagget sponger trying to sound cool. only the pros can do all of the cool stuff, as for you, you probably ride the white wash. sure, some of the spongers are gnarly, but most of them are speedbumps in the lineup. surfing owns it all
i surf and body board... if you ever notice no one good at surfing will ever bag a body boarder because they do it because they like it. who cares if something takes more skill i do both. majority of these punk ass bitches who talk shit suck balls at surfing anyways fucking posers
i know and thats what i'm trying to say to all these poser surfers who come on here and bag out bodyboarders.....surfers who are good do it cos they love it and love being in the water....if you hate a sport thats so similar to your own...its just stupidity....all my friends surf like 15 of them and like 5 bodyboard and we all have great times out in the water....thats what its about....no trying to bag out the other sport.........i hate youtube haha :P
fuck yeah dude. i lived in florida all my life and had to move to michigan and now i snowboard all my friends ski and we have a bomb ass time man. its all about doing it man props to you if your in the water man do what you do bra
of course every dude pretends he knows everything when he talks to his girlfriend when he has absolutely no idea on what he is talking about - BUT DONT VIDEO YOURSELF DOING IT AND SHOW IT TO THE WHOLE WORLD
All they have to have is a house on the beach to be considered a local? Damn, you can have 10 houses on the Outer Banks and not live there and be considered a touron.
and to answer your question it depends how u fall. if you get sucked over the falls and get thrown to the bottom sometimes it hurts, but other time you can escape out the back of the wave if its not that heavy. Just depends on how u fall bra
this dude sounds like he learned all these words today, and felt like showing off, so he put as many of em in a sentence as he could. ah bra, drop in in to that sweet set, thats so sick. dudes a homo
I'm going there now
