I live in Ohio now, I'm 63, but was born in Newport (Hoag first year baby), went to HS at NH , but was raised in San Clemente. I'm here on RUclips watching this videos just about everyday remembering the "good 'ol day". My brother and I use to ride our skateboards (homemade) at the pier in SC back around 1960-62. I thank all of you that post these videos. You have no idea how much enjoyment i get from watching what the young people do these days with "boards" of all kinds. Thanks again, and keep on filming.
Awesome story
im in ohio since 88. born in 69 and surfed huntington and newport from the age of nine til i left ca. i miss the ocean but thats all i miss the traffic and rest of th so cal scene isnt for me
I absolutely love to hear those kind of story, Thanks ! I get such a good feeling from them !
Awesome brother. Its always good to share the waves throughout time and pass them on to the new generation. Respect.
@Analog Man Yes, digital is so awesome.
That's one of those videos that makes your day

Nice to see an editor that will leave the entire ride in one shot, Not like others who feel they have to keep cutting short shots.
Thanks
Thank you!
I would love to see the skimboarders run before riding the wave

I grew up whommpin' The Wedge, and impacted the sand with great intensity many times... I remember watching the skimboarders have a great time. The chill music was awesome to listen to as well, as I sit here and sip coffee... THANK YOU!

Wow! I met my wife a few miles south of this spot in Laguna Beach 30 years ago. I remember skim boarding. But nothing like this in Shaw's Cove. I'm happy you younger crowd discovered fun and dumped the TV game consoles in exchange for fun in the ocean.

Skimboarding is the most beautiful sport in the world! One can appreciate the beauty as a spectator, and/or from the riders position. Fabulous video! BRAVO!
Love the music to this. Makes me feel the calm I get from surfing.

You skim board?

CARRRLLLL
Yeah and what are you going to do? This is the real world Carl
Thoroughly enjoyed this! Brought me back to what I loved about surfing so much...playfulness with no boundaries.

this is the paradise
Skimboarders paradise!
Thank you Lapin!
So beautiful and thinks for giving me so much joy on this day!
You’re welcome. Thanks for the kind compliment 🙏🙏❤️
What's really amazing about this spot is how quick the waves build up. Everytime I watch some footage from the Wedge I'm like "Oh, this wave is pretty small" and litterally 0.5 second later this shit is 10 feet high ! Great video by the way

I've watched these guys in Laguna for years. Great piece. Bravo.
Awesome vid and love the music you put with it. Took me back to my days growing up on Oahu at Sandy Beach when the waves were such a respite from the world. Miss those days...

Thank you Green Power!!
By far one of the most underrated sports ever made

I lived in West Covina in the 80’s and spent every weekend at the wedge !
Boy does this bring back memories :)
Living in Temecula now.
Nice to see young ones enjoying it .

Cool vid, something fascinating about watching the wedge...
Love the way skimboards can connect into the wave from the beach...
Here's a new video same location with a mix of surfing, bodyboarding and skimboarding, maybe you'll like this ruclips.net/video/2G8dnp_2fCo/видео.html
the skim boarders look so much cooler than the boogie boarders XD
Kevin Haaland doesn't matter how they look, as long as they are having fun
Idk why someone would boogie board when they can skimboard like a boss XD
ruclips.net/video/GjPRihw698I/видео.html watch this video and then tell me skim boarding is cooler then bodyboarding...not saying skim boarding is bad but you shouldn't talk shit on bodyboarding
Skimboarders look so much cooler than surfers LOL no need for Fins, less rocker and a much smaller board... It's crazy to see some skimboarders actually surf normal out in the line up... Respect

THESE VIDEOS ARE BAD ASS ! I WAS AT NEWPORT BEACH IN THE 80's , A NEW ZEALAND SWELL. SOME OF THE WAVES WERE 20ft +. WAVES WERE BREAKING A PERFECT PEAK !!! THAT WAS A AWESOME WEEKEND !!!!! FROM M.M.

This is my favorite skimboarding video. Thanks for doing an awesome job!
Here's a new video same location more of a collage of riders, maybe you'll like this ruclips.net/video/2G8dnp_2fCo/видео.html
i consider these dudes surfers. As a surfer I always envied the skimboarders ability to time the waves and ride the closeout shorebreak barrels. This shit inspires me to push the levels of my surfing beyond what the norm of the surf world expects surfing to be. Don't get me wrong, I nut at the prospect of a nice reef pointbreak dbah setup, but my roots are riding my shortboard on steep eastcoast sandsuckin dredgers. Riding down the line with nothing but 2 feet of sand under you is one of the best feelings ever

Great video. Can't imagine taking off on these pounders that finish in ankle to knee deep water.
Awesome R. Michael Brown :-)

Very Good Video
Thank you!
I've noticed over the years very few guys on skimboards make the deepest barrels. Great watching them pull in as long as they don't dig the nose and waste another gem.

loved this, especially the music that suggest space and time on the face. I had no idea a skim board can actually surf like that. No displacement just lift ! love it.

How I wish I could have experienced this; I had to settle for body surfing on the other coast when young. I have always adored the ocean waves--and many thanks to the skill of the photographers

I still don't understand the wetsuits, I have live in Laguna my whole life and have never wore a wetsuit once yet been surfing, skimming, swimming thousands of times.
You surf without a wetsuit in the winter when the water is in the mid 50s?

This brings back such fond memories of my local So.-Cal. beach-breaks...getting mashed on the sand in tubes & laughing all the while with good friends!
Amazing fun Always...:)

Gotta be the best skimboard wave in the world! So good that skimboards should be called "the wedge-in-newport-beach-boards".

With parents immigrating from Dublin, Ireland & arriving into New York City, 1975 with no other plans, than to hitch-hike to Palm Springs Ca & make a life dependent on noeone but themselves... I was fortunate enough to have had the entire Ca. Beach experience & all the wonderfull smells, people, slices of pizza & days @ the wedge, & this video brings with it, a flood of just those very memories. God damn, where the fuck can I get a frozen banana dipped in chocolate right about now?
awesome flick, great photography, music a perfect fit IMHO.

well that answers one question I had...could you surf a skimboard

@@wesleykongvisualz haha I forgot about this comment. Got a bit into skimming this summer, on a beater.
@@MihaiPruna never too late to get exercise and have fun at the same time, right? Glad you got out there, stay safe!
beautiful video but this is no way 3-4 foot waves.. wayy bigger than that
TrapBum i know hahah. try, 5-6 foot waves :')
TrapBum 3-4 seems about right maybe even 2-3 remember guys we measure from the back :)
TrapBum now that i am further into the video.. i see what you mean!
i dont measure from the back of the wave, in my opinion its a stupid way to measure how big a wave is
Montana Weatherby just look at the thumbnail, fucking overhead lol. i measure by the face break to bottom.
WOW! :O
Those waves look perfect!!

Love the music!
To see such a heavy wave with such a chilled sound track captures that moment of peace and slowed time you get in a perfect barrel.
Here's a new video same location with a mix of surfing, bodyboarding and skimboarding, maybe you'll like this ruclips.net/video/2G8dnp_2fCo/видео.html
what skimboard they use ?
Exile skimboards
+OoSasY94oO Real ones use Apex
+Sammy C (Sam) Apex is mostly for flatter east coast stuff.. Most west coast skim boarders use Vics, exiles or grapes.
Cool clips. Had to mute the music. Elevator tunes don't work with surfing vids...
not surfing
Thank you for the comment, feedback is good. Thanks for watching the video!
fleaboyz He doesn't know what he is talking about but it is his opinion and I respect that. But I think songs like this work just fine, feels really relaxing and chill, makes the video even better to watch in my opinion. Keep it up dude! good job! Loved it!
I'm coming at this as a surfer, so I see that and a little warning goes off in my head saying "shore break, danger!". I gotta say though, I had no idea you could do this kind of thing on a skim board. I might never be a full convert to skim boarding, but I want to give it try after watching this!

Spectacular. Love the shooting and music. Thank you.

The music is such a fucking buzzkill
great footage, great music, well put together. From the surfers of Bournemouth UK x

fleaboyz awesome video but SLOWEST transitions EVER…. Do you really have to show the wave washing onto the sand every fucking time.. just cut to the next wave please. and to much B-roll footage...
i like when the wave smash the shore ... its beautiful. Depence on you.... what you like. Dont be egoistic. Just because you dont like something others will.
I think it's cool for some of the waves especially during the intro, but it just could have been cut tighter in my opinion.. Martin Stefanek
Dylan Nicklin you can never have too much broll my dude
If you have to much B-roll it takes away from the actual subject you're shooting (the A-roll).. There are definitely lines to be drawn with b-roll… Trust me dude ski, I'm a film major. lol NOXkaz
no need to use f bomb mr angry gills
Newport Beach near jetty's best place to body surf!!!! Food for your soul to remember when you get older in life.
Agree it’s amazing for that 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
i love this video. I't makes me feel at peace with everything.
Excellent video I went to the Wedge in the 70s. We used to camp out on a beach about 10 miles away and then go for it . I can remember a 12 foot day hundreds of people and photographers. I’m a body surfer and I took off on one of the set waves and remember I was vertical dropping and dropping and made it. I really like it when the conditions of the waves are like in your your video. Perfect tubes on the inside body whomping 😎👍

That has got to be the funnest surfing in the world. That includes 30 foot waves. Been surfing avidly for 40 years, and now I've got to go to the Wedge with my skimboard.

Thank you Ethan. Yeah got lucky that day to see some surf. I think it was my first visit to the Wedge and I brought a camera.

The young kid with the long hair has to be the most fluid person I've ever seen on a wave before. Amazing!
Thank you BillyBob976!
I'll admit, I haven't seen a lot of skimboarding. But this is easily the best I've ever seen. :) nice vid.

I grew up at this spot. When its big, the Wedge puts out some of the most hollow shore pound in the world. Riding in the barrel for 5 seconds after it closes out on you with only an inch of water under you is surreal. Then there is the crowd yelling constantly on big days.
