I surfed their back in ‘82 with Bruce and the Dubriar brothers. It was California’s first el nino and we held it down. Now everyone is out there hotdogging and grand standing
Interesting that Malibu and Rincon were breaking decently at the same time. Almost never happens. This was truly a "West Swell" and a powerfull one at that. My favorite west swell break, which rarely happened, was El Capitan north of Santa Barbara. A small point break that could produce some 4' to 6' fast, hollow tubes. Of course that was in the '60's and '70's when I surfed.
Not known as a winter break but the El Nino swells come in much more westerly than north westerly. Malibu and Pt Dume are south facing beaches for summer swells, but again, El Nino works. Totally different wave.
when I as a kid surfing I heard of riding all the way through the pier , now IVE seen it....the world might be ending but you guys get the finest swells ever
When the points in Ventura and south Santa Barbara are 12'-18', with sets 20'+, and Mavericks is 25'-35', HB at 15'+, the Malibu crew can be found ripping it at 5'-7'. No need to challenge yourself in Malibu, just cruise with the zen crowd.
Highly recommend you come down and surf this spot in Malibu. Malibu Lagoon State Beach is a good place to learn to surf as well. Great for folks that live anywhere in Southern California or just on vacation in So Cal.
What a long ride and under the pier! Great shot
Unbelievable! I was shocked when the surfer went under the pier!
Sick. I got three bombs from third to the beach. Thought for sure I would have made the edit 💪
It's a big Westy to turn it on like that, thanks for the footage, fantastic job, brings back memories.
nice video.. Really captures it. Great wave & mostly great surfing

That was extremely entertaining and informative at the same time without any real commentary. Excellent!
Great footage. Thanks.
Watching from a flat NC coast.

No need to spend NYE in hospital.
Always refreshing to see Malibu with hardly anyone out.
I was going to say drop ins were at a minimum

Nice waves actually for a west...odd and fun looks like...

Rincon was huge ... slow but huge.
I frickin' had to work!
Not the right swell direction but the Bu still lookin good. Few longboards?
Almost looks better than a south swell
You poor Americans. What a crowd.
If that’s pumping, I’m embarrassed to say I am a California surfer

Go back to the toxic South Bay I thought you were a hard charger bro worlds greatest surfer
