  • New swell makes for good conditions with well overhead surf! Overall just another fun day at Blacks Beach ! Todays forecast made for 6-10 foot waves which brings 10-15foot faces with Super clean conditions. Lots of barrels were made today, also if you see a clip of you surfing shoot me an email!

    Dude, I surfed Blacks early 80's with another guy, just the 2 of us at first. Walked down the trail about 6:45am and beheld a triple overhead day breaking exactly like that. Bottom of the trail, just to the right an undertow current pulled you out and then you paddle to the south to catch the monster, breaking over the one sand bar break in southern Cali that has Massive waves once in a great while. I was the caught one wave and went straight back out. It scared the shit out of me! Mind you I surfed Carlsbad, Huntington, Eagles, Swami's, Newport, Encinitas, The K's in Mexico, I was a seasoned 10 - 12ft face junkie. But that day, triple that!

  • @Ibprius

    It's not quite Pipeline, it's not quite Padang, and it's not quite world class...but its California class. We locals love it. It packs a punch. Occassionally gives you a really nice barrel. Never closes out. And feels heavier than it looks from shore. Good ol' Blacks. The average Joe's big wave spot. Where a medium size wave makes you feel like you just slayed Goliath...meanwhile at Nazare this "best day of the year" wouldnt even qualify as good. Seems our California, white collar surfer egos have really been put in check. We are not as courageous as we think. Or maybe deep down we always knew it's not "that's heavy." The other side of Point Conception has always been an instrument of humility for myself. I always wondered what it would be like if the Blacks Canyon were somewhere in central cal? Would we have our own Nazare on just a little bit smaller of a swell? Anyone who surfs out there knows that at 4x overhead it's a phenomenal wave. Incomparable to any size beneath it. Imagine it at 6-8x overhead. Probably even more impressive. Could we dynamite underwater off of the central coast and recreate the canyon? Would this be a better answer go our limited resources than wavepools. Who knows?
