- This is Blackies 22nd-24th St, Newport Beach California on one of maybe the 3 best days of the winter season 2023-2024. There were a few larger swells that rolled through, although with rain and variable winds to go with it.
This day shown in video had nice sunny skies with offshore morning winds for just that one Thursday between storms. I will update this description with more info soon, so check back!

Grew up there, five houses back from the water - 85 - 95. Great memories surfing there and hanging out at 24th street! Thanks for sharing!
I grew up riding blackness in the 70s, and one of the good things I remember was the polite crowds we used proper wave etiquette that always made for a good vibe and fun sessions. I got some of my best rides there.
Blackness? My bad for using the autospell.
A lot of good locals in NB. My respect to one dude I saw surf Blackies once. Decent size waves starting before the pier. Nobody else out. It was dark and a little stormy. He took off beyond the pier, connected at least three sections and stepped on to the beach. Didn't even wear a leash, pink fishtail.
Hi Henry, my OC Locals friend! I'm right around the corner here in Orange County, CA. Keeping connected. Like 71. what great socal surf breaks 🌊🌊🌊 we have, don't we? just glorious!
Cheers and blessings,

Mahalo, glad you are out and posting videos again.
Awesome Blackies video!
Looks so dangerous out there 😂 and I’m not talking about the waves lol.
Yes I agree, looked like maybe 500 surfers out there between 22nd and 24th Street ?..
It was so much better in the sixties when there. Were no frickin short boards!! And half the crowds!??😢
no way you surfed there in the 60s that's epic
Yo Huntington Hen! Stoked to see your channel ❤️🙌🏽 Tone Stone here 😂 (nickname all your fault) been playing with some different gear having a blast 💥 Hope to catch you soon legend
Super awesome to hear from you Tony!..
Learned to surf here in 1988. Only seen it this big and clean maybe 3-4 times. A little backwash around 17:30, that never happened back then.
At least only half the population of Newport went out, the other half stayed on the beach... 😅
Frickin short boards!!
Get over it.

and wear a leash
This is no doubt an epic day at Blackies...but there were so many places this afternoon that were historically big and perfect. And the next morning was the best Blackies I've ever seen. Don't think theyre even surfing the big swell on this one, too long period, just the leftovers from the preceding one.
Hi ichorousmedia, yes the next day morning I was on the Huntington Beach Pier for a friend that passed. It was raining hard, and the waves were basically as big as it gets there cracking just outside the end of pier some sets.
South Side was doable, a few guys got out, nobody catching the largest waves though. The tide was high so that cut down the side current a little . About 10am the rain stop. The wind was SE side shore not to bad. San Diego was hitting BIG also peaking the 29th. This Thursday swell was just starting to hit, yes very long period 17-21 secs. Interesting though Blackies this day 28th got smaller by noon or so and the wind onshore, with tide going out. But yes next day 29th was the main peak of the swell. Hard to video in the rain for camera’s, can get ruined.
Thank you for your comment!..
@@henryssurfshowcase I was in PV...biggest I've seen it, like proper sunset beach but bigger...broke my leash, board gone forever, helluva swim in. San Diego was historic as well.
Far out.
Lived at 115 29th st for 10 years, this reminds me why I gave up surfing, too many idiots in the water...

Umm this is not Blackies . It’s Newport Pier north side
Blackies is sandbar at south side of pier . Some call it Newport Point . And it’s flat in winter as this video was made .
Interesting? I always thought it was basically 22nd Street in front of Blackie’s Bar?..
@@henryssurfshowcase yes between the pier and the jetty and in front of blackies bar, hence the name
Idk, I thought The Point was The Point, south of the pier further down.
That looks more like 17th Street than Blackies!! I don't see the pier! Maybe around 26 or 29th Street with the jetty in view??
The pier is in there a few scenes. I started just south of 24th , then moved more south to 22nd..
Looks like a shit show
I think I saw a guy that could kinda surf? Naah.
