I surfed Newport and lived there many years and loved this break many times. It was gold and huge perfect barrels 3-5 times a year approximately before surfline. Not crowded Cali Pipeline with many photographers with expensive tripoded big zoom lenses on the shore many occasions. Some of the most epic barrels on my little twin fin in my memory. With the large swell in the right direction it is epic.
Right on brother
Wish more surf footage had no music and just natural sounds like this
Watch raw beefs then
The white balance is insanely cool shifted, but your stoke on filming these breaks is great.
Takes a lot of commitment to paddle into one of those! Wow!
Newport guys are beach break masters.
I’ll never forget this day, woke up at 3 am to get down there for this swell and getting into Huntington Beach it looked like puerto Escondido everywhere, first got the wedge fucking massive then here, the current was unreal so kinda hard to get waves but so unreal to score neworort point that good
It amazes me how much this swell caused n.p. to resemble 15 ft pipeline- its one of the closest lookalikes ive ever seen- sick🤙
Pipe-esque!
6-8ft Pipe, minus the reef the drop and the power.
@@jackstrada5263
Who cares man
@@Aromatic-ring Obviously YOU 🤣
@@jackstrada5263
Not really, I’m not the guy downplaying every break in the world trying to preserve Pipeline’s reputation
That takes some serious stones and skill to pull off some of those drops where this is being done. It was probably deafening loud out there judging by the audio. Damn, I get haired out with waves half that size at Newport. Thanks so much for sharing this vid!
Classic point.
I lived on 34th street for a few years and caught many south swells there in the early 80s.
What a wave!!! That swell is nuts and those guys are CHARGING!
The biggest I've bee out in was 8-10'. As a novice it felt like a battle for life and death. These guys are crazy. :D
+Eric Day
These guys are XXL.:D
Eric Day
These guys are actually Hawaiians and a few locals who come here when they learn of the wave forecasts. I was out on this day and talked with a couple of them. Nice guys when they're here surfing but total assholes when you're over there surfing their waves. Good surfers but they've been groomed with perfect waves with perfect conditions year in and year out so they better surf good.
Yeah, biggest I've surfed it was 8-10, in the fog it's spooky.
WoW ! Kudos to the guys that were taking off way behind the peak. great footage.
SICK how fast these sets rolled. I've surfed many hurricanes on the East Coast during the last 30+ years and have NEVER (hurricane or otherwise) seen waves roll that consistently, clean, fast, over and again. Sure makes for an easy "pass" in the event of a stacked lineup without feelings being hurt.LOL I've always thought of So. Cal as a bit of a joke when it comes to "large surf" (compared to No. Cal, Todos, and elsewhere). This video shuts that down. GOOD stuff Henrys...Thanks for posting.

Nice having The Point video California Pipeline. I was very local to that place for some years before Surfline. Not often but 4-5 times a year when it gets a large swell from the right direction it breaks EPIC. Double overhead with thick square barrels. The sand on the beach vibrating sometimes. Some of my best most memorable barrels from there. No time for bottom turns LOL
@@brianbirc dude that is sick
Looking good Henry!
Holy shit, I used to live in Newport Harbor, and never saw faces that big...I am stunned by the size of these killers!!! The people look so tiny!
I had a chance to surf over there in Newport Beach . Really wonderful place with awesome people . 2:05 is my favorite moment .
incredible footage!
Epic video, thank you! Only thing close in socal is Blacks and BM- all different and all classic! Rad seeing these guys charge with style
I grew up on 24th Street. Besides The Wedge, 18th is the most powerful break in Newport. 55th could possibly compare.
Pretty much every street in West Newport up to River jetties is the same wave. I don’t know why, but the point doesn’t seem to get as good as it used to. I remember days in the 90s right in front of Stuft surfer on 15th St. just firing. Not so much anymore..
I'm down with 54 and prospect
I’m going to rob both of you fools watch y’all backs living in the Balboa Peninsula 😂
Woah Some Solid Juce! Awesome Action Henry 🤙🏽
Yes that was Hurricane Marie, one of the biggest and cleanest swells in a long time!
If you look up some other spots like “ 56st Hurricane Marie” or “Cottons” it was off the charts on that swell. It was peaking this day , but lasted for a few days solid, great swell..

The resemblance to pipe is crazy
oh Man I can watch all day long.
Thanks for the vids. I'm getting back on my soft top at 53! Wont be doing this kinda stuff but its plenty inspiring to get back in the water. I'm local so I'll be out on "FUN" days in the Newps!
From another Hank
Nice to hear from you Doc, get that soft top ready, with- in the next 48 hours its on thanks to our buddy hurricane Eugene!

Dr. Chem we will contact the life guard. 😂👍
Sweet Marie...that swell was nuts.
Great Video!
I'm from Newport Beach got to ride that wave in 1992 twenty feet at 530 pm September, dark when I paddled back in.
Thanks for the shots Henry. That's my old goofy foot Paradise
Awesome to hear from you Ron, it's a great wave for sure when it's on !
Had a day out there many years ago. Barely making it over sets while watching Strider Wasilewski free fall with the lip into the pit was mental. Had a shark encounter there too, a thresher I believe. It torpedoed out of the water right beside me. I think it got caught inside and was freaking out kinda like I was haha. My friend Yasha got photographed by the local news during that swell and put in the newspaper, bottom turning into a hucking pit. Still have the article clipping. That was in the late 90's.
great waves.even better to see guys charging it..!!!
Perfection !
I would gas out trying to paddle out on a day like that! Awesome video!
The streets in the west jetties were all awesome also for days!
28th was like 4-6 faces, 32nd 6-9' 36th 8-10' easy out, no side current 40th 10-12' very few guys out especially past 48th-56st 10-16+ with heavy side current, long deep spitting barrels..
Same here
I've tried to paddle out on days a bit smaller than this at Newps a few years ago. It was above my skill level and endurance. Had to check my ego at the door and call it. The real walk of shame.
You can paddle out way down the beach, south of where you want to surf. It's still big, has more closeouts to duck dive, but also a rip to get you out to the lineup. Since the current pushes towards the pier, if you paddle out to the right (north) of the waves, but then it's a pain to paddle south to the actual peaks where people surf.
You know the break area well !!
great waves.even better to see guys charging it !
There's nothing I love more than hurricane swells. But, there was one time that a hurricane hit us in Jersey and it was just too rough to ride but the storm took a hard turn away from the coast and continued straight east. It sent these long beautiful waves non stop for two days. If I remember correctly it was hurricane Ernesto.
I like hearing great surf stories like that!
@@henryssurfshowcase pretty sure you like perving out on underage HB girls more
You are right, epic indeed!
At 4.30 awesome barrel,got the crowd hooting.Love it.
The sea was angry that day, my friends. - George Costanza
Very cool. That was a fun day.
Hey, there's a janitor in the line-up! "Clean-up on aisle 5!"
EPIC TUBES... I've never seen California surf like this. Steep drop offs, lefts look just like the Pipe. Rare days, for sure.
I've seen 2000 California surf days like this. I guess I'm luckier than I thought.
dude that wasnt even big!
Shawn Soltero for socal that’s pretty big
And to think there are places in the world where you'll get months on end of these kinds of waves smh
Considered a big day now at what we call The Sleeping Giant. But growing up on 18th in the 80s and before the sand bar shifted, this would have been a moderate day. A big day was 30+ with the horizon filled with yellow boats and a beach full of broken boards, photogs, crowds, fights, ambulances.......kinda like the wedge now on a big day. Epic times!
It's the same way at the jetties too, when it gets that big. So glassy!
artic Wright The jetties can be good when big BUT when The Point gets a big swell from the direction it loves (I will not post that direction ) It is called California Pipeline for good reason. It may only get epic a handfull of times per year but has nice barrels on south swells more often so checkit out just a ways North ! of 56th on a big south everyone if you can handle big powerful bsrrels! and do not listento anybody saying it is somewhere else if you do not see it breaking there try The Wedge but be carefull there many are injured there!
Good memories of it , 38th and Seashore, a bike ride away...
Cool Henry!!
My name is Pat Neri. You used to film me at HB Pier back in the early 90's when I was in my 20's. Short Filipino Boy still ripping at 50 years old now.
I'm glad to see you still out getting footage. You're The Man Huntington Henry!!
Hi Paterno, was that you at Anderson St. during that big hurricane swell back then?
It was pumping empty left , but very hard with that side current from what I remember.
Everybody got washed into The Hole, it was good there also and less current..
@@henryssurfshowcase
Yes That was Me Henry The current was so bad that day. No one could fight the current for long and one by one we all got swept into the hole. It's great to talk to you again Henry
I remember that left top to bottom rifling off Anderson St.
I could not hook up also with that current.
I was in good shape also just back from Hawaii.
When I was out there that empty barreling left was just a few paddles out of my reach every time.
I paddled out way up the beach also.
Getting out there was not that hard, but staying in place to get that wave was basically impossible.
I think that was one of the most pumping days ever that I have seen there?..
@@henryssurfshowcase
Yep Henry, that day I Don't care how well conditioned any Surfer was. After me, one by one I watched every single Surfer get swept directly to the hole. Mother Ocean had her way with us all that day.
LOLLLL
The Hole was actually pretty good also, but had a thick crowd.
Nothing like that empty barreling left off the Anderson St. point though.
It was still fun trying to get 1 of those..
This was great! love watching big water ;)
Great camera work
Newport going off! love the footage.
Found your playlist, ocean is so amazing, I am good tho
That one regular with dark hair is killin it!
SURFING ISN'T ALWAYS ABOUT PERFECTION...IT'S THE FEAR THAT KEEPS BRING US BACK!!
Hell yeah brother
This may be the best footage to come out of that swell.
18th St goes off! We had a houses on 24th St for 11 years. I miss surfing Newport!
It was pretty good last week with Hurricane Paine, and should be decent Thursday morning 9-29-2016
parabola Yes it does I lived on 23rd for years. Right behind the owner of Visions ocean front pad. I had 4 other local Zooport places too. I was the last promoter of the Thunderbird on Fridays too. The shity councel shut it down and kept it vacant on Via Lido Island paying the taxes + I think for 15 years. It became a workout place. Good times with an unlimited bar tab booking Sublime, Manic Hispanic, Goldfingers first or only OC show and Dramerama. So many other great bands like Hed Pe, Burning Grove, One Hit Wonder, All Day, 96 Decibal Freaks, Knockout etc..Plus the go-go dancers I hired. After party fun at my jacuzi and bedrom after the club closed. Good times LOL
EPIC HUGE BARRELS at The Point 3-5 times a year and great barrels many times too. Its the California Pipeline with the correct incoming direction of a good south swell.
Good times in Newport! Are you talking about the guys that owned Vision Skateboards? I remember them there. My buddy Eric Nash skated for them. We were always hanging out at the volleyball court right at 24th St. A guy I work with now was the guitarist for Homegrown and he worked at Peer Records so we trade Newport Beach war stories all the time. Such a great time!! Surfing Blackies in the winter was the best!
parabola Yes he was the owner of Visions I believe ocean front there. Homegrown is a good band I had them play T Bird a few times. Had to kinda sneak them in at that time and they wanted to play early. I said what do your parents want you home when the street lights come on? They were not booked as the opening band but I let them play before the last. They have done well I think and are still playing I hope. Blackies was good sometimes El Nino was great. Big waves pounding waking me up is great. If he has been the guitarist from back then tell him I said hello I did Friday night (Eck and Birch) I still listen to homegrown semi regularly.
Yah I'm pretty sure he was with them back in the day, but not 100% sure. I'll tell him about our conversation. His name is Ian!
How I miss 18th street... and 39th in the mid 90's..
Yes that's up to 20 ft faces. Because the biggest waves need for falling down / breaking from creast to trough 1,1 secundes. Free Fall calculation h = 0,5*g*(t^2). So 0,5 * 9,81(m/s^2)* (1,1s)^2 = 6m (20ft). Now for that ones who are saying not even 10 ft naa max 6 ft Maybe when the surfers are sitting on board style while surfing or handstand style shaking the ears. The biggest waves are 6m (20ft) see calculation.
the point is actually a easy paddle out but you have to fight the drift to get into the spot past the tower
Truly Epic!!!
Reminds me of swell in 1985. Epic then and now.
That was almost 40 years ago you old fucking geezer!
@@kookseatpussy7228 You don't even know old young fella. Watched Illia Kalama and 1 other out, on real big boards, the day it was named 'Newport Pipeline'. About Fall of '67.
That whole week was insane. Surfed Laguna all day for the three peak days with hardly anyone out. So much fun.
Did you hit brooks st. Oak street?
@@johnmartin2079 yep. My 12 your old self was fighting for my life to scramble over the set waves. Second reef was breaking almost every wave and third reef was breaking on some of the bigger sets
Pipeline comes to Newport (name of an old SURFER article about a similar swell with a photo of Dick Brewer turning the corner.)
what size board where most of those guys surfing? Those are some big waves.
Hi Alexander, it seemed liked 7'0'' to 7'6" was about what most of the shredders were riding?
Maybe a little thicker than normal for the paddle?
The guy in the thumbnail photo seems to be on a slightly rounder nose but only about 7'0"?
The guy who broke his board in the very beginning of the video 0:01 seemed to be very under boarded 6'6"? if it is even that, smaller would be crazy!
If you go too long in hollow waves you can easily pearl and catch the nose on the bottom trough.
On my channel thumbnail Redondo Breakwater and the bigger picture in Maui I'm riding a 6'10" medium thick.
On this Hurricane Marie swell after video taping I was riding my trusty 7'4 over at 48th-52nd street, is was not as jacked up as The Point, but way less crowded with top to bottom focused rifles off those jetties!
A hand full of guys were doing 56th street it was insane, although much more side current......
Wow surfing, I’m one of your fren here
Who’s the guy going backside? That dude is charging!🙌🤙
I don't know Mark? Is there anyone out there that knows who that is??
What a day!
Some of these waves are nearly perfect with a Pipeline kinda look, but without the jagged reef. Just a nice hard sand bottom that I broke my ankle on several years ago in waves just like this, maybe a bit bigger.
doubt it
Sure do wish So Cal would go off like that" on daily basis 😎😋
Those waves remind me of pipeline without the reef!
Jaw dropping, didn’t even know it gets that big...1:20 should be WOTW contender !
B.E.A.C.H...Best Escape Anyone Can Have.
must have been a fun paddle out
Insane waves for SoCal!
+Ho Stevie! Thanks for comment! Check out this Lunada Bay Palos Verdes south Los Angeles Ca. Video I taped on 1 of the biggest days you may find on RUclips!
ruclips.net/video/IGmaUB4CofM/видео.html
henryssurfshowcase wow that's huge!
Those are bombs !!!! Yeeeww.. so sick ! Dudes are gnarly!
loved your footage. used to surf Newport and Huntington cliffs in the 60s. I'm unfamiliar with the reference to "Newport Point". Where is it? Give me some land based references please. I love the beach and still watch the breakers whenever I can. thank you.
Hi Pete, it's 18th -19th street just south of pier, 7:50 everybody is cool just don't drop in on anyone and watch your paddle out interference, one of my summer favorites!
Very rare needs a steep SSE swell, a hurricane coming up Baja in the narrow wave window 160- 175 approx will do it, likes lower tides....
It's like medium size pipeline...guys are charging!! Too bad it only gets like this once every 10 years here!
Epic day
How close to pipeline is this!? I've never seen it that big and hollow that is pretty shallow water
I think Shaun Tomson made that claim during the '97 swell maybe? I hear the comparison all the time, but I think it applies to the really big and gnarly set waves. There are a bunch of waves for mere mortal on these days and they probably don't compare to Pipe. I'm sure Pipe is heavier, faster, shallower at a comparable size to this video.
Relentless
Gary Sutton looks like pipeline with more white wash lol
The very best place on Earth the wedge in Newport Beach California love this place!😀
I think the strong current was the reason why a lot of perfect waves went unridden.
Yes, that and getting plowed inside! Actually when outside a little the current swirls back to the south a little.
Inside current rips to the north..
I cant believe im the first person to comment on this video.. these waves look like pipeline
+Christopher Ciquera Thanks for watching , It is called The Newport Pipeline when it is on like this!
But Banzai Pipeline is still a much heavier wave, plus has hard reef bottom and not just sand like this place.
It was an amazing swell from Hurricane Marie, past 10:35mins it starts with the dawn patrol from The Newport Pier.
This was the biggest day, but the waves were still solid for the next 5 days!
An interesting video shot is at about 11:35min from the Newport Pier. You can see how SE or sideways the swell split from the deep offshore trench which bends the swell back to 18th street on the southside of pier, and splits it to the north 56 st. That wave almost 1/2 mile out is cresting!
Here are some of the wave heights, The Wedge was easy 20 feet plus, Newport Point what you see in video 10-18 feet plus. Blackies 22nd 1-3 feet, 28th street 4-6 feet, 32nd 5-8 feet 36st. 6-9 feet. 40th. 7-12 feet, 44th 8-14 feet 48th, 9-15 feet 52-56st. 10-17 feet. All spots west Newport were good! The side current was a big problem starting 48th north thru 56 but guys were still out ripping it up!
Water temps were around 70 degrees, air temps morning lows upper 60s, upper 70s-82 for afternoon highs mostly sunny. light winds!

2:57 was crazy!!!!
I've been out at 18 1/2 street one time when it was much higher than the lifeguard tower. The lifeguard said it was 27 to 30 ft. and that was the biggest wave of the day. It was a huge right shoulder that was very steep. You could almost reach around the wave and touch the back side. That was back in the mid 80's and was the biggest I've seen the point.
Robert Laird ok little Robbie, keep lying to your self🤫🤥
@@jamessteel6574 Not lying. The waves were splashing the bottom of Newport Pier. This was back in the 80's. 27 to 30 face.
@@jamessteel6574 That's what I'm talking about. It was pumping and I was the only one of three people in the water that day. There was one dude with a movie camera on the beach. No wind and perfect lefts and rights. I had to paddle out in the natural channel, the submarine channel to get past the waves and then paddle south. I was on my boogie board.
Now if only you never made it back to shore, then that would of sounded like the perfect day.
@@jamessteel6574 Your just jealous that you've never had the balls to go out on a big day.
SICK!
18th Street. Nice.
It was putting on a show doing a very respectable pipeline imitation.I noticed a ton of etiquette in the water too, not a pile of drop ins. I guess mother nature thinned the kooks right out of the equation.
....when it's on, it's the best wave in NewPort..............
Water looks angry 😤 😝
small day dude!
Barrels 🛢🛢🛢 🏄♀️
Looks like Pipe on a good day.
Hey you guys, I have some great video with what I think is very good surfing skills in extremely challenging conditions SS Huntington Beach Pier 8-2-2017 during the peak day of 2 tropical storms Irvin and Hilary doing a rare Fujiwhara spinning effect off Baja producing some fairly high surf for our area! ruclips.net/video/upQ3WBkBDKE/видео.html
Ok Cali I see you
0:45-0:57 Epic barrel!!
What the heck is going on with the swells at 11 minutes and 50 seconds into the video? It looks like the swells were going north and parallel to the beach.
Yes they were, and actually breaking out there also!
There’s a 56St video on Hurricane Marie and shows that super far outside about the same time in this video..
@@henryssurfshowcase That's amazing looking and yes, I did see them breaking. I grew up in Newport/ CDM and now live in WA. I left when I was 27 and haven't been back. The beach life hear is much better than down their.
1974 or 76 was a day to remember at the N B Point. Anyone remember the coast guard fire boat incident?
Was that the Ed Farwell, John Van Ornum, session in Surfer magazine that put Newport Point on the map?
I was only 12, but remember the balboa pier shaking and the lil peaks on the sandy footprints leveling off because of the impacts on the sandbar.
Thanks for the video ..question- why the heavy blue tint to this? Whitewash is blue wash ...
+T Crowell Yes you're right, I explained in one of my earlier reply 's that for some reason the camera was set to night time white balance.
I could not see the screen very well with a lot of bright glare from the Sun and wave spray.
When I got home and saw it I freaked!
The best I could do to save it was to heavely try to correct the over exposure and this is the best I could do on my limited equipment....
henryssurfshowcase doncha hate that? ? Can you try to adjust white balance thru photoshop or similar? Thanks to Neptune and Ma Nature, more waves every day
I love that color of blue. did you color correct it or was it just like that?
+Razorian Buck Hi, it was a mistake on my part, for some reason the camera was in a night time white balance mode.
I could not see that until I got home then freaked!
Tried to save it by lowering contrast making darker, it was almost totally over exposed and washed out....
