    It's always sad seeing a broken board, but you have to expect that to happen at the Wedge. Loved the white hoodie. Reminds me of the surf that hit back in the spring of 1968, big waves with some really nice shape. I missed school that day because I had a cold (ahh -choo!) 😁

      does no one make a board with like a metal spar up the middle? that would save a lot of broken boards imo.

    Props to the guys who pull into the closeouts. That's what Wedge was always about. As someone who bodyboarded Wedge a lot in the 80's and 90's, I never saw the point of dropping in just to kick back out. Grab them closeouts boys!!

    I love some of the fun music you play. But there are other times when it’s just camera, the sounds of the crashing waves, boards flying and the occasional whistle… “that board’s gone.” Love the authenticity of these videos.

    The Notorious Wedge chewing em up n spitting them out...... Separating the men from the boys. Fun place if u respect what it's capable of and a great place to bring that over confident "I can handle any So Cal break" guy for a reality check and a phat slice of humble pie!

    Big rebound bowel, after take off nothing left of the wave to surf. Jumping off before the close out is... you know, sand in your nose. Parking fees and broken boards your reward. Best place is the one right hander that pops up from time to time. The beach gowers smile when you eat it up close. Fun
