Here are some video highlights of the Wedge going off during a southern hemi. While waves were not as big as they can get at the wedge, it still makes for some good video. Enjoy!

  • wow where about this wave i live in aus.

  • Newport Beach in Southern California. This spot cranks during southern hemi swells starting in May.

  • Amazing footage. Well cut together. What causes The Wedge to break like that?

  • The swell comes in from the south and refacts of the jetty which causes a large volume of water to propell back out to sea. This backward moving water hits the next swell coming in and explodes upwards doubling the height of the wave. Sometimes dudes ride the backward or sideways wave right into the barrel of the next incoming wave. Thanks for the comment.

  • Wow, good choice of music. Love the video. Did you film and edit this?

  • Thanks. Composed the music, filmed and edited the video. Glad you liked it.
