Thar looks around what would equate to a 9 or 10 second swell period here in the Gulf of Mexico on the west coast of Florida, with that swell coming in from more miles away. Lines that long on the lake is what boggles my mind. I can understand the wave heights getting up there with the depth of the lake and how low the pressure gets in those storms. Some are hurricane force. What I don't understand is just how long the lines can clean up and spread out to with their short length of travel after the winds switched or let down. Simply amazed! Go glad yall are up there enjoying your local resource of fun.
I absolutely LOVE this video. It's well done and I can totally relate to your journey. I grew up in northern WI and began surfing on the east coast at 26. Surfed for 15 years (East Coast, So Cal, Mexico, Peru, etc.) before moving back to WI where I raised my family. At 52 I just started surfing again a couple months ago on Michigan and Superior. I am amazed at the waves and so thankful that surfing is back in my life…for good.
My story is somewhat similar for sure. So stoked to know the possibilities the lakes can produce very high quality waves. I've traveled to some of the best waves on the planet and hold Lake Superior as one of my favorite places ever. Keep the dream alive brotha!
That’s some of the best and cleanest lake surfing I’ve seen to date! Love your guys’ passion and devotion to the sport...35-40°F is pretty hardcore. 58°F is cold for me lol
It's unreal how good it can get when everything lines up and this was good but not epic conditions and it was actually kinda warm since we didn't have icicles growing off our hoods.
I moved to Costa Rica 28 years ago... I used to surf anywhere I could. Cape Cod, etc.... but there’s something appealing about two coasts and 80 degree water that I’ve come to appreciate.
I don't know man. I grew up surfing in NJ too and it was pretty extreme. I remember surfing a day back in the 80s when it was negative 30 with windchill factor, 3 feet of snow on the beach, and ice chunks coming over in the lip (i.e., frozen water and snow got washed out from the jetties into the line-up). When I was done, my toes and fingers were so numb I almost went to the hospital because they weren't warming up... But eventually as they "came back to life," the pain and throbbing really set in. That was as extreme as anywhere on the planet I'd say. Everywhere, even NJ, has its extreme days I suppose. Keep on rippin 😎🤙
@@yxngbt387 plus the wetsuit technology is WAAAYYYY better today than back when I surfed winters in NJ. Now I'm permanent in Australia so a 3/2 is as thick as I go these days!!
The Great Lakes can most certainly make big waves, from the Chicagoland area here. I know Lake Superior is cold even in the summer months so I could not imagine what it is like in the winter. Hats off to you. The video is amazing! I hope you enjoyed your hot shower after.
Ripping, definitely can tell these guys have surfed all around. Looked like a fun session and by telling how well they looked on video (hard to look as good as in person compared to being recorded) easily can see the stoke and dedication! Glad your waves are uncrowded.
Brings back good memories Surfing Lake Erie on a 9ft. Wardy board..........and later..a 7ft. 11in. Greg Noll bug. No wetsuits,,,,,just 2 sweatshirts and a bonfire.
What an incredible wave for an inland lake! Glad you made that video - gives me hope having just moved to the south coast of England where the English channel is only about as wide as the Great Lakes.
These are just waves on a lake, right? the way that swell generates is because of strong winds blowing across the lake? Recently I bought into a resort on the edge of the Nam Ngum Reservoir in Laos, and I am wondering now if I will get the chance to try a bit of this freshwater surfing myself (without the snow). I never imagined such a thing possible. Anyway, great hobby and video. Pumped me up.
@@anarchistangler yes made by wind. Lake superior is over 100 miles wide and super deep so swell has time to build and generate power. The reservoir your talking about is much smaller and very shallow but may have some really really small waves sometimes if you get any major storms. It also looks like there are a lot of islands though which may block the swells too.
Yeah right. Thanks for checking it out and giving your opinion. There is a fair bit of swell on Nam Ngum when there is a storm I have to plough through in my fishing boat, and some of the places I fish the driftwood and wave erosion is very high up the bank. It gave me some hope perhaps there might be a wave. I am going to check it out when next there is a huge wind. I can't offer you any surf probably, but you're pretty decent for explaining your hobby to me and entertaining my questions. If you would like to come and catch some prehistoric fish some time - some really gnarly predators - contact the Green View Resort Laos. I am going anyway, and I got a rod you can borrow. It is one of the last wildernesses on earth.
Wow! So many similar stories! I just love it! I too was born in Australia but grew up in Minnesota! I grew up getting "surfing magazine" for my birthday from my cousins and uncles down "unda!" After high school, I moved back to Oz and that started two decades of surfing around the world. I gave up surfing in 05 and moved home only to meet a guy that year who said he was going surfing up on Lake Superior. I had to pinch myself to make sure I wasn't dreaming. Then I had to change my shorts! I've seen and surfed Epic waves up on that lake. Epic! I surfed up there for over 12 years. Due to children I haven't been in the surf for a few years but that's going to change!
@@getwildwithevan Well said my friend and I appreciate the pep talk. It is SO important for the mental state but I've been taking great care of my boys which will also put the mind at ease. They're getting old enough now that I can start to work the things back into my life that I sacrificed for them. See you up there!
A Superior video and it's NOT StOn3Y?! Props for that. The Search is the most exciting part of surfing (not just the Lakes, but anywhere), an idea lost on the packs of Me-To's, posing for their Instagram shot, at the Point. Good on ya!
Some sweet nuggets coming through there. I'm super interested in the waves on Superior. My in laws live in Ghoulie Bay on the Canadian side. We live on Vancouver Island in Tofino, and I absolutely love surfing cold water. With modern wetsuit technology we are sweating even on the coldest days. Stoked to see your video. When someone says its to cold to go out, they are really saying "its too big for me."
Fell in love with surfing after learning this year in Hawaii. I live in Minneapolis so I was bummed that I wasn't going to be able to surf unless I traveled. Not anymore. :) Great vid. Thanks.
Can't believe I never seen this. Great video, twice the length, and a spot or 2 more wouldn't have hurt, but .. 👍Floridian here as other commenter posted, I'd require a 6/5 , but one thing here is we have so much salt it irrigates your sinuses beyond belief. Loved the content.
I once stepped into lake Superior in late fall, I was wearing rubber boots and reached into the water. It was so cold, I imagined that if I were to fall in and was not close to shore, I MIGHT survive the cold about 4-5 minutes.
Great video! I am amazed how good and clean the waves in this video are. [Most GL vids are showing pretty choppy conditions]. If I'm ever up there I'll be checking the surf! BTW: I too have surfed a lot of good waves around the world but I'm always most stoked to surf my home breaks in NE Florida. Funny how that works!
I was born in Virginia MN and have family there. I’ve lived and surfed in Florida my whole life. I’m gonna have to check on coming up there sometime to surf the lake
With all of that rocky shoreline, there must be at least one place on the lakes where the waves come out of deep water and break on a shallow reef to make a hollow wave.
@@ec1628 I'm dying to learn how to surf. I've been in michigan my whole life and am planning to take lessons soon. I'm so excited to start! The cold shouldnt be too much of an issue as long as you remain physically active :D just makes a hot shower feel better afterwards is all
Awesome video - really hard to believe it's a Great Lake however I first started surfing the Great Lakes in the early 1980's and o one back then was surfing Superior that I know of.
Awesomeness! It would be weird to not get the sinuses blasted out by salt water. Do you notice a buoyancy difference or board handling differences between fresh and salt water? Love the stoke! Thanks for sharing
Yeah man it's weird without the saltwater for sure. I tend to get a lot of sinus blockage after surfing freshwater. Taking a decongestant helps. Not as much buoyancy as well so your board feels a little sluggish. When duck diving you get held in a somewhat suspended area where you aren't rising back up to the surface. Almost a neutral buoyancy. Thanks for watching !!!
As someone scared of sharks I think this seems like a great alternative to surfing the ocean. I’d never surf in the ocean but I’d defiantly surf there it looks so much fun and it must be so much funner knowing no sharks are lurking around you.
Waves have been known to reach as high as possible 40' out on the lake during gales. This estimate has been made by captains of the lake freighters. Closer to shore probably in the area of 10'. There are videos on U-Tube of waves splashing up & over the 80' cliffs on the North shore in Minnesota.
With all that shoreline I wonder why the state hasn't sculpted some really nice breaks or at another level invested in any of those Surf parks. All that fresh water ought to be worthy of some type of investment. Lake Superior and Michigan alone pick up the lions share of year round wave activity. Its definitely long board territory.
I would take a big cooler, put a large trash bag in it and fill it with hot water for afterwards. Fill it , twist the top of the bag shut and close the lid. You have to rinse out the wetsuit anyways and the instant heat was soooo nice!!! If you don't already do this...please do.
I usually ride the same boards I have for Hawaii and other areas but I should really have a small quiver of higher volume boards for the lake. My 8' walden is a wave catching machine because of the volume but it's doesn't rip like a short board.
Mate Ive gotta give that a go.Living on the North West Coast of Oz the idea of surfing in a cold water lake sounds crazy but u guys seem stoked outta ya tree,One for the bucket list I reckon,reckon the cold will be pretty freaky but gotta give it a go
I bet you could surf sea kayaks in that channel. which point is this? Just looking over the map and there are LOTS of points that I could see working. As a regular footed surfer I'd likely look for a right hander

It's actually a short window where we get solid clean conditions. You need to be on the spot when it happens.
