  • Yeah man! That's the shit! Did ya get much of a burn in the old pins or was it fairly relaxed? Makes my 5 seconds wither in comparison!

  • Nah it was all good, had time for a good book!

  • First time I've come across this "Severn Bore"

    Are these waves that come up the river from the ocean?

  • Yep, there is usually a wave once a month (coincides with a full moon and high tides) Saying that the wave size depends on river height, tide height and wind! Best conditions are spring tides when it's been dry and the river is at it's lowest.

  • LOVED IT

  • In about a fortnight, google severn bore for times and locations. Get on it, love the river before it's lost...

  • Brilliant, whens the next one...crack on!

  • Splendid!

  • Not seen this video befor, Fantastic great job

  • Great camera work! How did you keep the screen so dry?

  • Handled that with ease mate,from a bore follower not a surfer that video gets a 5 star rating.

  • that is a fuckin cool vid too

  • Yes. It's the tide. It's a soliton wave..and it isn't caused by the tide..it IS the tide coming into the river. This happens on about 65 rivers worlwide, and many of them can be surfed. We get to ride the wave whenever the tides get big.

  • Wow, wow, wow!  I love the bore and I saw it for the second time today. I never thought I'd see it from this perspective. Thanks and well done!
