A series of storms resulted in huge waves over the weekend. Here's another video from the same day with an even bigger wave: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UuhUYf0qpS4

  • Fucken weak

  • Just like @Azzkik411 says, it's a sick wave when the swell is right. It's for sure surfable with a 20-30ft swell, just with a really short board you don't care about...but the playing around, a la body boarding/body surfing/skimboarding is SOOO much fun on those hollow huge days. Yes, there was a guy eaten here in the 1930's, yes there is a nude beach up the way full of guys, yes the rips are pretty nuts on any tide swing, but it's all worth it for some heavy, giddy sponge barrels.

  • yeah I havent surfed sf much except ocean beach, but I mean THESE aves were just closeout trashy.

  • @Talis64 I have bodyboarded there, but I like shorebreaks like that. Going a little further north, there is a section that peels a bit especially when its not as choppy as this day. Maybe "stick" able but would have to be a gutsy stand up surfer.

  • @Azzkik411 I am from Hawaii and really like those powerful closeout shorebreak type waves. Bodyboard/bodysurf for life. Lived in SF for 5 years. Although it takes a big swell (OB will be over twice as big) I loved sponging there. it was a real, hollow ass powerful pit, which to me was hard to find in Cali.

  • totally unsurfable

  • One of the few fatal great white attacks of NorCal happened at this beach. I think it was back in the 70's...

  • COOL!

  • I have never seen waves that big at "Dudes jerkin it beach," although they look all bark and no bite. That huge closeout at the beginning just dies instantly.

  • Baker Beach is nice to walk around on the beach & look at the views but way too

    close-out crunch & cold for me even when I was a semi-crazy kid.

    Think I'd rather punch my self in the face

    than paddle out into that.
