- In this episode I cover 10 things that drive surfers crazy.
Surfing is insanely fun but there are a few things about it that will make you question your sanity.
Can you relate to any? What were some that I missed? Let me know in the comments and I'll add them to the next one.
Thanks for watching! I'm Brad Jacobson and I'll see ya on the sand.

I can't believe you didn't put this one- paddling for a wave on a big day and not catching it, then turning around to get caught inside the rest of the set.
What’s the proper thing to do?
@@lilbbmuffin take the 2nd wave all day
@@lilbbmuffin try to survive 😂 duck dive or bail your board are really the only options. Sometimes you get lucky trying to catch it but usually it just crashes on you
Good one!
Most frustrated I’ve felt was cracking a rib right before going on a surf trip. Still went and surfed some pumping waves but paddling was so freakin painful.
That's a good one and it happens to more surfers than you may expect.
You missed one: the guy who paddles for every wave and catches none of them - but stays around the breaks and keeps doing it
That's a good one too!
im that guy and im sorry :(
98% of all shortboarders. mass psychosis.
I'd add - seeing trash in the line-up. I had become so used to it that one time I thought I was kicking a big plastic bag... turned out to be a huge jellyfish!
That's a good one!
Don't forget how it feels when your on a shortboard and there's that one longboarder that is hogging every single wave. Of course, some spot is a decided "longboard spot", then the shortboarder is largely to blame. But otherwise, just pay attention to how many waves your catching compared to the people around you.
That's why i surf longboards
its rlly annoying to see them catch the wave early and end up doing nothing on the wave every time bc they suck
This pisses me off so much, i surf my local reef and then what happens?! Some snake on a longboard decides to catch it from like 100000miles back and then act as if they arent on the wave, paddle once, the. They are on and they drop straight in on you and you are to blame for them being fucking retards that dont pop up, paddle, turn or shit.
@@leopoldo442 they act so innocent too so you can’t get mad at them 😂
Why I stop going to queens even if I put paddle then they get mad and won’t share if I out paddle them and catch it they get mad
Every single one is so relatable 😂
Personally the most frustrating one is when the wave lies. You've been waiting forever, antsy for a ride when you spot it from way out, watch it build and it either stops building right at the critical moment or is an empty wave with the right shape but no power. Now you're 5 strokes inside with a huge cleanup set on the way 💀
Pisses me off to no end.
Need to work on my ability to read waves, feel like my wave-riding ability has improved massively over the years, but my ability to read the ocean has always lagged behind.
My pet peeve is when you on dreamy wave and some idiots on your way and they don't even attempt to move ..arghh
I had that happen once at San O and every turn I made to avoid the guy he turned that way too. It ended with my fin embedded about 1-2 inches into the nose of his board.
@@PariahSojourner At a busy Popoyo I had said dreamy wave that had one section to make in front of me before perfection. Dude paddling out turns to avoid the collapsing section and paddles straight at me in the pocket and he kept angling deeper to avoid the white water and no matter where I went, he was putting himself right in my way. I honestly tried to miss the guy, I don't want to ding my board or hurt anyone but I ran clean over that dude. Shocked he wasn't hurt. "Hey Bro, how about next time we duck dive? Mmmmm k?"
Mr. Brad, as always what an Awesome video that brought back many memories of Surfing during my time. Keep up the Great Work!!! Thank You for Sharing and Posting.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Amazing video! Maximilian and I would love to see some more funny facts about surfers! we will try to catch some waves tomorrow as well!
The last couple i don’t really relate to, that’s just part of Surfing, getting clipped by a wave etc. But the rest of them are spot on!
i love this! great footage !
I remember a day back in January 2019 or 20 when the wind went offshore in the afternoon and i just had to watch 10-15ft porto barrels while sitting in class all day.
all and more...great contents!
totaly relate ! spot on.
Loved it!!!
Hey Mr.Brad ,you make awesome camera work . I subscribed to your channel.Can I ask one thing ,can you show surfers paddling into the wave .It seems most videos show surfers already on the wave .thanks keep up the cool vids.
#1 definitely. I don't go to work when the waves are pumping lol
Still watching ur vids! keep up the great work!
I appreciate it!
💯🏄♂️🤙 I can relate to all of these! I recently had a awesome wave only to have a guy lose his board on the set before and was in the path of my wave, making me ditch it. But I knew him and helped him get his board back, so good Karma at least right?
4:18 "i just saw some sharks swim by brah, you dont wanna e out here"
When there are swimmers in the surf, skateboarders snaking your wave, someone infront of you on a really good wave causing you to miss it, fin pops out cause you entered the water too shallow, fellow surfers pissed at the fact that you were doing something to keep you safe.
I could see the surf clearly from my last job and one day it was firing and I couldn't handle it...
So Good! So relatable!🤙
Thank you 🙌
7:21 that absolutely broke my heart. sick shot though. but ya I think we need when a spot that's pupping gets black balled ;-;
Dude great vid also I hate the crowds the most I just get scared of hitting someone
These were great!!! I related to every one🤣
Hahahaha, most surfers do! Thanks for watching.
Good list, man.
Okay, here's one: There's a wave forming in front of you, and you're in the right spot to catch it. Then some barney starts paddling for it, so you give him the wave, and then at the top of the curl he backs off, and the wave goes unridden. If a guy does that to me once, I ignore him for the rest of the session, and just drop in on him whenever I feel like it.
What's your camera setup? Looks amazing
One thing that annoys me is seeing great looking surfboards hanged up on people’s wall’s when I or someone else could be ripping with that, like I only have 1 board so having one of those decoration boards would make a big difference
Interesting point of view
0:33 I don't know when that was but that has to be the single sickest heaviest wave I've ever seen in LA
A Gray Jan 2017
the worst is when you have the perfect set up for a good wave and your foot slips, pop-up fall, trip on leash, or other stupid little slip up errors that ruin the wave.
💯
I have to second what Mack Nevins said, but take it a little further. We planned a trip to deep Mexico (secret spot), 10 friends and my son, although I had a chronic hip problem that wouldn't get better. Turned out I had an infection from previous surgery (thought I was just needing time and healing). Back on the surgery table for me. So I became the photographer for the event (8000) photos later, we're still looking at those photos, so it was a great memory for me and my son. Deep down I'm so angry that I missed those perfect waves.
when your buddies get insane waves but you cant get one
Then just drop in on'em. Just make sure it's not your bud who gave you the ride there.
The most painful thing is, when there is one day in a year, when the waves are good, you hanging around in school lesson, watching a live cam and when you finally arrive at the beach after school, it's F***** flat 😑
ahahahahahah 3:50!! ahahahah all the time! I get so cranky! I'm always thinking I should relax, be nice, surfing should make me a better person....oooohh boy!!
Totally!
When you have to go to school and theirs a 1 in 100-year swell which feels like it happens a lot is super painful.
Bowls was absolutely firing today and I can see it from my work lol. And I’m like brah omg bombs
My vote? #1: crowds #2 crowds #3 crowds ... everything else I can happily live with
Can't complain bout crowds when you're part of it though.. if paddle into it you can't really complain about it.
very true!
“They accepted you as their leader and now choose to follow you” lol
Definitely hate it when its a busy holiday and the local spots are absolutely packed.
You should also add the guy that paddle in front of the wave when you take off, forcing you to give up on that wave... usely because the dude doesnt want to duck dive where the wave crashed already... then you trow your board but the lip pull you back into the wave, you get smashed by your own board and end your sesion because you have broken rib...
Driving past the beach when it’s pumping but you have to work or do something you can’t put off is the worst
that first one hit different 😭
so relatable, but you forgot the times where a wave looks amazing and it is amazing and your in the barrel and then some how, the wave INSTANTELY dies and your lef there like huhhhh?
This is so true!!!
1. Dudes who have no sense of when to not go for a wave. (People paddling back out in front of them, other people trying to surf etc.)
2. Kooks who follow you around to hang out literally right next to you and go for every wave you go for (I know they are still learning and that’s totally fine but it’s a bad habit to build)
Most of this list, simply that's part of surfing: work, school, inconsistent swell forecasts, wave quality etc.. With exception of conditions changing the moment you paddle out, it's the human element that proves the greatest disappointment. Besides aforementioned crowds and drop-ins, the back paddler and/or those inexperienced that paddle in your way, instead of taking it on the head, that frustrate the most.
In the new era, watching guy after guy pull up to the spot and immediately get on the phone to broadcast conditions (younger guys won't get that one.) And the most dangerous one; NO BOARD MANAGEMENT! People bailing their boards or flopping off relying on their dope ropes. No one kicks out anymore. Also, back paddling or paddling out right in the line of travel.
I don't surf but also practice bodyboard and some thing close that you said about the next waves beautifullest than the on you have surfed, is when you paddle to go to the line up and big waves brakes on your face and you paddle a lot, and making a lot of duck daves and see beautiful waves with no one on, and at the time you arrived at the line up : nothing happened so you wait and wait and nothing for a long time. Other is when you are at the lineup and you see some waves at your right so you paddle and paddle and at the time you arrived at the peak that you see previously the beautiful waves are at the exact place you where before to move. And to finish to mix two point of the video but it's only for people who live and work not too far to the ocean is when you know that there is good waves today and you're at work so you wait the entire day and at the time you arrived at the beach at the end of the day the waves are terrible
When the waves get good when you get out brih 8s way too relatable
The wavestorm army paddling out on you while you're surfing alone is the most relateable... #covidsurfteam
Don`t forget the number one enemy, the guy on a SUP!!
8:05 boogie!
was a solid one too.
Love your work Brad I got a top 10 thing I am sure surfers hate and has happened to dozens of times having a great session super fun waves then walking back to your car or truck and seeing sparkling pieces of glass right next to your ride and knowing some one just rummaged through your ride praying they didn't find your wallet
Ugggg, hate when that happens. I'll for sure use that one.
the biggest frustration for me in surfing is when a surfer crumbles an otherwise makable section on you.... it's so so annoying.
Getting your leash caught around your foot as you hop into position to paddle for a wave.
I have a problem with those paddle board surfers. most of them can’t control their big ass board and send it flying towards me on my little short board trying to take my head off. they get in the way of all the good sets and make it harder to paddle out because you always have to watch out for them. if u can handle the board it’s fine all is well but most of them can’t so it’s annoying as shit
when theres one bloke who tries to make impossible sections- then you catch it down the line when you know they wont make it, and they get angry at you.
I hurt my shoulder and couldn’t surf for a month then I surfed one day and then next day I had Covid so now I can’t surf for like another week and it’s so painful.
well at least, if you live in LA, there's no special swell coming in any time soon
LOL @ "These are not the waves you're looking for." I think I've actually used that Jedi mind trick before, to no avail, of course.
Hahahahaha
Stingrays n sea urchins should be on this list!!!
So much of this list is California specific, sounds like a... challenging place to surf
Forgot about when tourist want to come sit right behind the surf lineup and ruin every wave that you could of caught by being in the way. They got the whole beach to play in the water but nooo the gotta be right behind the surfers so they think they are cool or that the surfers will save them from getting sucked out.
Don’t forget about red tide
Don't forget surfers that dont know how to hold there boards and ditch them. If you cant hold on to it through the white water or duck dive please exit the water so you dont hurt someone who's life revolves around the ocean.
Don't know #1 had the best waves to me 🤙
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
😑😭
It 2 to 4 or 5 to 10 ft and glassy early morning .
You and your buddies are the first one on the beach.
Then you suit up walk down to shore line . When you start to walking in the water to the white wash, all sudden you get stung by sting ray. After about minute or minutes the sting start up . With pain , crawls up the foot in to leg and then off on cramping and off on sting pain .
You can barley stand .
The 4 to 6 different types action of pains increase.
This lags in so many ways
Next day you come back to beach to surf . It walled or small and the wind start to pick up.
You miss 1 of the best days of year .
Ouch!
Letting a local get 4 waves then getting dropped in on by said local even though you're in position because "I've surfed bonzai pipeline bro" is their excuse 🤙
*JUST HAPPENED* .In the distance I saw perfect reeling barrels. Drove up to the spot and conditions couldn't have been worse... Glad I brought gym clothes
when you’re paddling out and a beginner longboarder cuts you off right before a set
I can relate to when you have to go to school and it’s pumping and the wave storm crew paddling out
3:58
👍👍👍
Another one is when you've just paddled hard from being inside and wind up in the perfect spot with an ideal wave, and you're out of gas. You give it your all, and don't get in.
You forgot #11 - Anyone new to the sport who wasn't born into surfing but is trying to respectfully learn without breaking any of the rules or getting into anyone's way.
When you skip an awesome wave cuz there is a guy deeper than you going for it. Then he eats it on the take off, or doesn’t get the wave. And you skipped it for nothing 🤬
or when the best peak is breaking near the sewerage outfall and after surfing there you have an infected throat and ears for a week
Breaking your new board in its first session. People getting in the way. Getting hurt.
Risk getting fired when it's firing. Never know how long it will be until the next good swell.
Bro I am On my way to school and it’s overhead😭
You forgot living 10 hrs away from the ocean
Been in the water and surfing since I was 2 in Hawaii…I’d rather have a bad surfing than a good day at work…😲
*Surfing is Zen
11. Surfers hate other surfers.
You forgot boogie boarders 😅
team wavestorm for the win
(1) other surfers
Backwash when you least expect it
I wish my spot would barrel
I wish I started surfing at 5 and be able to appreciate it when every day its double overhead.
Finding litter on the fucking beach!!!
10 other surfers
Breaking board
You forget #1
No waves
I am not a very good surfer and i really don’t like the surfers that are good but not extremely good and find themselves very good and feel like they have the right to drop into a worse surfer I don’t make a big deal from it
parking tickets
😂
Tool
Lol that sucks
