- BIGGEST waves we've seen at Stoney Point, here on Lake Superior, for quite some time. I guess the recent long flat spells were all worth the wait.
Above freezing air and water temps made for nearly Balmy Winter weather conditions for all of us beach and surf fans to enjoy.
With the water levels back down to around average, the shallower depth for the waves to break in, made the rock reef, "come up" giving the big waves a whole lot of top to bottom steep shape. Much harder to take off, but so fast if you can. And the fine peaky spitting barrels have returned. The 'bell curve' shaped rock reef was at it's finest.
It always amazes me that the local crew, who get most of their practice in two foot waves the rest of the time here, perform do darn well when the very rare ten footers come in after a Gale Force storm. Wild ! Thank YOu to all the very enthusiastic fans and friends of this very special, very infrequent breaking Lake Surfing spot. I am so honored to get to share the line up with you all...
And thank YOU Vonnie for all the footage you shot here !...e...

Until Next Time.... - Спорт
In my opinion, this is among the most unique breaks in the world
Thank You Imhotterthenyou, we feel really lucky here for sure.....e..
So awesome to see it come alive. Still dreaming of surfing this place with y'all someday.
We'll save you a spot in the line up when you're ready, Professor. Always an open invite....e..
@@ahbwisurfnpaddle Thank you!!
So hard-core. Luv the vids
Thanks for being a fan jamesmegill !
These videos are great! I'm always surprised how good the waves are. How often is it rideable?
Thank YOu 911 Surf Report for watching our humble home vids. Winter time is often the most productive. Actually sort of rare and infrequent, we usually get waves when the snow storms, and or low pressure goes over the big lake. Maybe once in ten days to two weeks in the winter. Sometimes we do get waves for several days though too. Sometimes,...we even get lucky in the summer time here.....e
@@ahbwisurfnpaddle So, you get waves like the rest of us. When a cold front swings over from Japan, into the North Pacific, moving Left to Right with the jet stream: Hawaii, Cali, Great Lakes, Gulf of Mexico, East Coast USA all get waves, [in that order]. I'm making this up but I think it's probably true! haha 😜
@@eddiewouldknow You just hit the forecast nail on the head 911. It's low pressure that makes the waves here, along with the temperature drop. It's why we also get so excited to see the big storms coming into the pacific northwest. Often they swing right around the Rockies, and come up to us. We also have the variable of warm fall water, with cold snow storms. But it's the super cold, near zero temps, and winds from the North that make the cleanest waves at stoney point.....e..
What a beautiful day at Stoney! Once again, I made the massive mistake of deciding to work and not surf. That wave you caught towards the end of the vid was perfection!
Thank YOu RT....we missed you in the line up this time for sure.., and thanks for the props. No doubts, we'll have some more to share soon....e..
Incredible, overhead freshwater . Awesome color of water and sky
thankyou so much for watching and enjoying our humble vids, Strider Ranger.....e.
Awesome.
Wowza, what an exciting day at Stoney! Thanks for capturing and sharing!! Living vicariously through you guys right now.......
right on tommyboywalker,...happy to share. Thank you for watching....e.
Of course I'm on the west coast where it's flat !
Greetings! great surfing vid! I just picked up my first board and would like to try out this lifestyle. Is there an online group I could join to get a heads up when the waves are good? Or do you guys rely on weather maps and such? Thanks - Logan
Hello LoganofNorth. Thanks for enjoying our humble home surf vids. The group/page you can check out is SToNeY PoiNT surf spot on FB. You'll see the link on our title page, right hand side of the wave. We watch NOAA, /National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration page for potentials on the next round of waves. We also compare noaa up to Windy.com for the second opinion forecast. Most often, the best waves happen during or just after the very worst weather. Winter is often the best season, but of course the coldest. Consider also looking up Back Alley Surf Shop in Duluth. Good folks, right stuff.....e.
Awesome waves, awesome video!! Loved every minute of it!!
Thank YOU Kirby Hughes for being the hardcore fan you are !....e..
It's what we call groundswell basically the wind running down the shore produces a 10-second swell
