- It's not often you experience the "day of the decade" surf at any spot, let alone the world renown big wave novelty of La Jolla Cove in San Diego. Obviously this wave isn't the craziest thing ever, but it is cool to hear that it hasn't broken since Big Wednesday 2014 or something...? haha hope everyone is enjoying the California VLOGS, believe it or not there's still much more to come! Thanks for the stoke! - Ben

Zeke seems pretty toxic at this point. Dropping in on people and then starting fights with them. Calling people out for filming at “his spot” love the channel but hate when zeke shows up on here. He just seems like the exact opposite of a good role model for your audience.
Agreed
what up gravy snakin' all the waves???
January 22, 2017 was the last biggun.
Bens hair looks like Bill murray's from the movie King Pin lol The older generation will know what I'm talking about. 10:00
Yeah, and the crowd's reaction to them rolling down to the cove was like Munson's entry to that movie. The only thing missing was someone giving Ben their slice of pizza.
We don’t have a cow!
Ah man, that’s harsh. He’s got more hair than that! Luckily he’s a pretty good looking dude so he can always buzz it if it creeps back too far.
Ben murray
And his hair just subtly keeps getting crazier every scene through out the movie.
Big wave Dave is a legend that died on his board in the Humboldt bay harbor entrance. There’s a memorial for him at the eureka jetty spot.
Me and my friends from Kansas are signed up for your surf school at Big Rock next year. We are all super stoked. You and Zeke are proof that La Jolla waves are for everyone.
Hahaha
the rock sure Ain't for everyone
@@zachnewsom4071ignorance! I learned to surf at Big Rock. Big west swell, low tide. That's where my surf school took us! It was a blast. Locals were sweethearts! The waves were playful

It's always nice to see the cove breaking. I remember back in 1985 I saw it breaking six times overhead! I headed down there planning to paddle out until I looked at it and then turned around and went back to get my camera. Sadly, I don't know what I ever did with those shots...
Good memories what about now 😮
I was just telling my wife about that swell. When people say this was a once in a lifetime swell I say not in my lifetime - I have seen a few. But then again I remember when the HB pier was made of wood, Main St was one way & The Golden Bear still had bands playing. I bet The Frog House in Newport Beach probably still has the picture of a wave breaking OVER the HB pier and taking out The End Cafe. circa 1985
@@William-Bill-Munny yes if your 50 to 70 yrs old you know we've seen bigger and better 70s and 80s shit no one filmed.🦆🌊💜💯🤙
Annoying
You guys are killin' it! Ignore the noise, Ben and Zeke collabs got me stoked🤙
I tuned in for some surf…only took 15min to see some garbage…I’m going to the backyard yoga girl
Love it. Zeke killing it, Ben just dropping in on locals lol and Skip absolutely shredding!!!
Over exaggerated board size for mush wave
Doesn't even surf until 90% through the video.
Surfed it giant swell of1983 only three of us out.
I was there Dood watching you guys from the cliffs. Epic!!!!!
Ben “click bait” Gravy
I've seen the cove twice this size somewhere between 2007-2010.
The result of not rolling out of bed until 9am😂😂 Ok it's going off, huge...."hey lets go surf crap backwash waves" 😂😅😂😅 Nice afternoon session though.
Fully Nuking with OTC!!! Great video! Thanks for sharing!
I think the cove broke last year january. But yeah since then, probably 2014
Wow what epic surf in La Jolla here!! Never seen it this big!! You made it!! Looked good out there!!
I was hoping for a Marine St/Horseshoe/Rockpiles snipet by the way last vlog ended. Even tho this was way more EPIC 🤙
JOB has the psych counter. Zeke needs the Oh Mylanta counter!
The guy on the yellow board can really surf. Still remember my first 15 ft wave dropping in at Sunset. 1968 on my Skip Frye gun.
Ben, it's a repost of a poem I created (in part with ChatGPT) a while back.
I posted it already over on Jamie's blog.
"Pele - The Fiery Bitch"
In the heart of Hawaii, where the mountains kiss the sky.
Lives a goddess named Pele, with a fiery eye.
She wanted love and respect, from her people, so true,
But when they didn't listen, her anger grew.
Pele, the goddess of fire, fierce and bright,
With her heart ablaze, and her temper's might,
Oh, Pele, oh, Pele, calm your fiery soul,
Let's find a way to make your spirit whole.
She danced upon the molten earth, a fury in her heart,
The people tried to please her, but it tore them apart,
The flames of her desires, burned hot and wild,
They longed for the day when she'd again be mild.
They sought a wise kahuna, to heal her wounded soul,
With words and sacred rituals, they tried to make her whole,
But Pele's temper raged, like the fiery lava's flow,
They wondered if a psychologist might know.
Oh, Pele, the goddess, with your fiery might,
In the depths of your anger, we see your inner fight,
Perhaps some gentle exercise could ease your soul's unrest,
To cool the flames of your fury, to bring you peace and rest.
The people prayed for Pele, in their own special way,
But she didn't appreciate that middle finger, so she decided to linger.
Yes, that's right, she decided to linger...

That is really next level, you have a perfect wave 200m from there, yet, you decide to surf that. Even for fame I wouldn't have done that.
But can you surf through a pub door? I was the CBL man and this is how I did this surf stunt -

First, stoked that you were there Ben. My apologies for not keeping in touch recently
Second, Zeke. All of your elders are happy for your success. But money is not going to buy you a spot in the lineup and you know that you've been told. Now continue down that road of success with a better attitude.
Aloha nui
Zeke needs to come out with “Oh my lanta” merch
Wallbangers- new novelty wave in the concussion zone at the cove !
Man thanks for the inside look I couldn't get enough seeing what the cove looks like with the epic waves! I Don't have to imagine any more thanks
Nice!...but your waves at Black's were way gnarlier!🤙🏻For the dream!
They don't call it ' BOOMERS ' for nothing....Aloha
wow! This might the earliest I've ever been to the comments. I dont know what to say. Thanks for regularly producing some of the best surf content out there.
😈😈😈 zeeks a phsco ... does a huge turn on face after setting up bottom hand turn ... eggs it but wtf 😈😈😈😈😈😈
Do you groms see how to do this? Leave your 5’10”s in the garage and get a 10 ft rhino board.
The Dom Toretto quote tho 😂 “you almost had me?”
Ok...Skip charges ! That's all for now !
Historic?😂
Pretty crappy shape. shoulda come up to The Queen! We were scoring!
I love it Ben! Rock and Rolling Da Dream! Aloha ke akua!
Surprised zeke let you post this, since he is the only one allowed to film and post waves over there
Does Zeke have a sponsorship with Mylanta???
We came, we saw,we kicked ass 🦆🌊🤙💯💜
Big, cold, and messy.
What's so good about it?
That fast and furious quote was hilarious
Is this the spot zeke was crying like a bitch about?
average day in SW Aus they look way over gunned
Big Wednesday as referred to, was in 2007.
What's wrong with you guys?
It was in 94/95 winter when it was cleaner and bigger
Someone needs to tell Zeke that Jean shorts aren’t it. I think he’s surrounded by people who won’t tell
Him how
Bad they look
Zekepoostance and ben the t rex husband 😂
Hate 🌎and jealousy 🌊 barrels 😉.. all day!
😅😅😅😅 lolla jolla
What kinda name is that
San Diego doesn't rain it floods!
Big ol mush burgers at the Cove.
buy a battery!
Battery takes a charge, so it's most likely the alternator.
@@boddysurfernot when you don’t drive it 👌🏽
Zeke you should get a real job!
Ben Gravy is the Old Schoool Definition of a HAM....Look at me...Look at me..Enough alreadt
what about the sharkarooni's ?
Insane waves!!! This doesn't happen often but when it does.... look out 👀
Wave I'll never forget .... going right inside Makaha, throwing a frontside cutback , banking off the back wash wave and coming back out riding the backwash wave back out over inside reef! MK ! In and out! 1970s!
Good Job Ben.. love it when you connect! Y'all got schooled by Skip.. cool story. Killer footage. The force is with you.
It looks like a mini Nazare out there... So funny how Ben blew by that dude on the drop in on that way too tiny shortboard for those super big waves but at least he was trying!!
NICCCCCCCCCCCEEEEE YEEEEEEEEEAAAAAHHHHH!!
✌️ 😎 ✌️
In the 80's the Lifeguards were dicks and would arrest you for riding The Cove on big days like that. Dale Dobson and I paddled out on a day like that, and they chased out. They were scared. Now they have jetskis at least. Way to chase the dream!
global warming special! those billionaires with houses can probably buy new ones farther from the ocean. Love the global warming - waves are gettin bigger n bigger! Good Job America!
Need little surfer dude
Don't know about those dropins, Ben...but I've surfed LJ as a visitor and you definitely need to take your waves assertively or you'll just be watching the kelp patches.
Big closeouts bro!
I don't know why all the hype, the waves were mushy close outs, there are a lot of better waves in N. County at all the reefs that were going off, this swell will go down in history as some of the biggest waves we've had in my life time I think the waves that hit New Jersey looked a little scarier then here, Thanks Ben for all your stoke.
Best Blacks…..pretty good LJ Cove. Travel series with Ben and Zeke is zee match💯🏄
Ya, la Jolla funkyzeit
Absouloutly Insane how you sickos have ramped up your content and surfing content Great job mate
So a guy borrows a board he's never ridden & paddles out in historic breaks and still the trolls swarm like fleas? LOL! Ben charges a gun hitting the lip - epic! "Cast off the scoffers"!
I’m down there every day doing giant bubbles to rock music for kids and families, come say hi!
Nice day..closing out but great size and ridable, ROCKS! Thanks for the share!
TxTiger68
Happy New Year!
Best quality backwash sidebar novelty wave I've seen in S.D. is in my local zone in C-bad. Only scored it once though. Backwash that has the potential to offer mini right barrels and diagonals that turn even cross-shore, so you can even ride parallel to the beach not just out-to-sea! 💪💯
If Zeke didn’t say DUDE would he actually say anything
Ahahahaha yyyyewwwww 😅
18:00 found a couple photos i took of it breaking back in Jan 2017. Maybe 10-15 guys out. That swell was massive, came out of nowhere and caught a lot of people off guard
That novelty wave should be called “Gutterballs”
Haha that’s awesome
Gnarly swell lines and skip charged it the hardest than the rest. It was cleaner in the 90’s as it was shown in a video called Gravity Suck. Super sick flick overall.
I’m not sure why you got a wall cover up when it was banging outside ? Welcome to the true traffic and hate in cali , everyone take a chill pill and get in the water …🤣🏆
Nice novelty barrel @8:36! "Dude, that wave was so heavy it was like concrete!"
05:52 +1 for the original #fastandfurious reference 🤘🤘🤘
2 more kooks in san diego
GMC's rule, ha. Glad you guys caught it pumping
i’m famous!!!!
Cool shot of Black's north parking area and gliderport goat trail at the bottom @16:39
😈😈😈😈 whTs glin on , you 2 ba k killing it and hVin a blast 😈😈😈😈
So sollay, I envision walrus piss as the vibe......
Alternator
I thought you and Zeke weren’t on speaking terms
Congrats on the Surfline shout out last week🤙🏾🤙🏾
