RAW: How a RIVER WAVE FORMS START TO FINISH

  • Video: by @ianhayes
    When the waves are bad, we are so desperate that we will ride urban runoff. Certain wave and tide conditions will build a sand berm that dams a river runoff. The river will break naturally a couple times a month. If the berm is high enough, water will eventually begin to trickle in to the ocean on its own (DIGGING IT OUT IS ILLEGAL) until the the flow rate of the river is so great that it creates some impressive rapids. The board that I am riding in this video is a board that I designed with Catch Surf and am excited to be releasing this month. It is a board that can be used as both a boogie board and a great entry level skimboard. I think it is going to be a big hit with the groms.

      It is deff not legal ,the river won't run out of water for sure ,but they just reorganize the path of the river and just fcked up some 40 metres of sand beach . I would like to share someone's opinion who knows more about this ,or who lives near that area.

    Just in case anybody was wondering this is completely legal and natural. I have made a research and what they are doing is just something that Mother nature would do when is overflooded. (And even sometimes are not done naturally, sometimes workers from the own town are sent to do this) Plus, it is not beneficial to the public walkways and near structures near to this area.

      @@Ace-jb6gi it's a river, right next to the sea, meaning it is very close to ending there in the first place. its side is also just sand, if them simply drawing a 10 cm wide line in the sand is enough to make the bank explode then it was going to do that anyway. this is how rivers usually end up re-routing, but if you look back in 10 years the river will be back to flowing the other way, thanks to physics. (water resists inertia like any other matter with mass, meaning it wants to keep flowing straight and thanks to that it's going to slow down there and slowly deposit whatever it was carrying at the curve, filling it up slowly. the reason them doing that is a problem is that they're in a city, everything is built around that river, if it changes course it screws stuff up. if a beaver did that in Canadian wilderness no one would care.

      Jokes aside, appearantly this is a river ending which ends in a small lake at the beach and every so often it naturally breaks the sand dam built by the seawaves and releases into the ocean. Then when the "lake" doesn't contain as much water anymore the seawaves rebuild the beach naturally and the process begins again when the "lake" is overflowing again.

It blows my mind that someone can say something in the description and everyone goes "oh then this must be true." I've spent my summers in Cape Cod for the better part of two decades. When this happens, beaches change forever or disappear.
      Again, there's a difference between water going OVER the sand across a -- large surface area -- and water CARVING into a -- small surface area-- of sand. When the latter happens, the small surface area causes the water to dig down and push massive, irrecoverable amounts of sand out to sea. This sand is not coming back. It might have low and high periods of tide (your runoff), but that section of the of beach is gone forever. I imagine this will only get worse until there's a gap between the beach all together.

      Thats not a lagoon. Thats Aliso Creek. Any rain up stream and it would have gone to the ocean anyway.

      @@kalvindavis9319 Breaching the river to ocean does cause a lot of issues... especially during the algae bloom of the summer heat. It's not good for the ocean or the river. Please try to slow and sink our freshwater into the ground water table before releasing it back into the sea. This would only breach on its own (naturally) when there is a large rain.
