  • Great vid. You missed it by one day!! Gosh this looks beautiful though. Nice vid. Apparently you can use music as long as you link to where you can purchase? I've always wondered. Professionally done. Where are you from? BTW, it's called Bogue Inlet Pier, just for the record. Hope you had fun.

  • @Katyblogger what do you mean i missed it by one day? Were the waves the best Sun afternoon or Mon morning? had to get back home to Knoxville for work...would have stayed longer if i could

  • good point...correction Sept. 

see all

  • Not too bad, try and keep your shutter speed at twice your fps... if youre shooting 30fps keep your shutter at 60... 100 max (use your aperture to adjust the light) . It will help with eliminating the stutter/flicker in your video.

  • Newport on what this vid calls a "big" day...but really it's pretty average for the wedge... ?v=OeL1KJepYps

  • Nice vid...but for hurricane swell it's seems pretty average...those waves wouldn't turn a single head at Salt Creek or even Huntington...still it looked like a nice day...

  • @ICODCAMOI I saw many barrels this day, never seen a better day on this coast all my life.

  • @iSeeUTube1000 These waves were perfect size for crystal coast, if it were any bigger it would have been breaking way outside and mushy, if you want it solid on the outer bar past the pier it has to be 15 ft solid, Hurricane Earl was so mushy and like 10-12 ft, gotta remember the depth of the water, that's what makes it break harder or not

  • think those waves were awesome? u should b there for a real hurricane when they are breaking over the pier! (igor was small time)

  • why does it seem the waves in emerald isle are bigger then topsail

  • hell ya 6 foot swell this weekend

  • @natedog23z man i missed it i wish i was there have a house down there never seen waves like that ever

  • i forget what hurrican ive surffed it wsa something like that. and i surf down there
