Surfing Coronado, a hallow barreling day. Swell Tales episode #14

Every once in a while an ordinary beach break become what surfer travel the world to find i.e. the perfect wave. It's magic when it happens at your home beach. This is what happened on a September afternoon. The lucky guys that took the day off.

Patrick Troy: In those days, for TV, we had to have royalty free music. You couldn't just use a popular song cause you would get sued. There was no buying music on the internet so what I did was obtain music from local bands who really enjoyed having themselves promoted on TV. Try this, I find it works fine. Mute the audio. ;)

Looks like it was filmed in 1994/95 given the board shapes.

[@Swelltales]

Matthew that's precious. Some times miracles happen. If your lucky your off that day (because it was in the middle of the work week) and have a camera at the ready

[@Swelltales]

I left out the opening because I do not have the rights to the weather channel, which I used int the original & shortened it a bit to make it palatable for this generation.

kseshspoopy: In those days that shot would be very special and unique as in George Greenough's "The Innermost Limits of Pure Fun" (1970) Now any Jack wad can do it. The Camera in that shot at 3:04 was be fired by remote control by Ben Ziegfried who was on the beach. He was a real innovator. Hey Ben did those shots come out?
