    To all the people who like to drop in on other people; one day it will not go your way. When you get your head cut open or lose an eye, you will have yourself to blame.

      It’s unbelievable how people can’t grasp this simple etiquette. They don’t bother learning what peaks are, a left , a right, or the common sense etiquette of surfing. I’ve seen it all
      Over the place but nothing worse than in California.

    Hurricane Camille Surfside beach Texas had 15' faces with sets producing 18' rogues. When you could go to the beach and not be road blocked like now. The jetty's were the way to get outside. Hiding from the breakers over the jetty and running between sets to the end.

      @mdindestin 12 дней назад

      Not true. Pcola gets chest to overhead after every single cold front blows through and the winds switches directions. We used to call this 6' back in the late 70s.

  • @ArbitraryWorld
    @ArbitraryWorld 8 месяцев назад +3

    On this day the Gulf Coast had the best waves in the USA. Groomed. Rippable. I'd have a hard time not being in the water. Reminds me of the time I surfed Hurricane Gabrielle at the 14th Street pier, long ago.

    For us Old Dogs who surfed in Pensacola during the late 60s and early 70s - the Scott Bush, Yancy Spencer & Beaser Turner era, we look at this footage and grimace. The problem isn't with the surfers - though clearly there doesn't appear to be any Yancys, Beasers, or even Dirk and Kevin Woods, the problem is that the sandbar is gone. This was clearly a solid swell... it's just not breaking with any kind of power because the bar is gone.
