- Follow me down memory lane with a story from the old Pismo Sand dunes. See Devils Slide today and how it used to look in 1982 when they close down the southern part of Pismo Beach dunes. Thousands of duners visited Devils Slide each year, until the environmentalists won the battle to closed it down in 1982. Video capture with DJI Mavic2Zoom. Music title: Hope, by Adrian Berenguer.

Growing up riding pismo with my dad I would hear story’s all the time about devils slide and what a good time it was. I was researching devils slide and this is the best video I’ve found so far
I made many trips to Pismo starting in the mid 60s. Yes I'm that old. In the early 70s I made it to the top of Devil's Slide on a Honda 90 three wheeler. It took a lot of switch backs near the top. There were no fees and no limits on people then. Tens of thousands on a holiday weekend. Good times.
Awesome video bro, I was born in 1982, wish i could have rode this part of the beach and devils slide
Cool Story. Glad you got away!!! I first went to Pismo in 82 but never got down to Devils Slide.
I remember as a little kid and a preteen going to Pismo Beach throughout my childhood. My parents were in a four-wheel drive club back in the day and I grew up on three wheelers/ atc's. I remember my dad had a Toyota Land cruiser with a Corvette engine in it and these huge paddle tires on the back. We used to travel down to devil slide I remember as a kid and climbing all the way to the top with that Toyota Land cruiser. Made it every time. That engine was so loud and he would pull the mufflers off when we got there where it was just straight headers. We had an RV and we towed that along with my three-wheeler at the time. Even after a preteen as I approach my twenties I would still be going down there with my quads and any other people that I knew at that age. I remember back in the day you could just pay at the shack and pull onto the beach and pull wherever you wanted to camp. In the later years you had to make a reservation a year in advance and at some point I forget what year it was they put a huge fence from the ocean all the way up to the sand dunes where you couldn't drive down a certain point in Pismo anymore. Not sure what it's like here in 2023 but I'm sure it's not anything like it used to be in the 90s and I know it ain't anything like it was in the 80s either. I'm 55 years old now and I still have my quads but knowing where California is going and trying to ban internal combustion engines and a lot of motorcycle manufacturers are not making high performance quads anymore. Everything is all razor type vehicles. I love those vehicles but I wish the manufacturers would somehow come up with a new sport quad with newer technology. Only time will tell if it's ever going to go that route but it looks like it's time for everybody to move out of California if we want to have any fun. Hopefully the Oregon coast will still remain the same and other parts of the country as well. I love the desert and I love the ocean and it's weird how people who write these stupid laws and try to take the fun out of life are not even the type of people that do this stuff in the first place. I'm all about being fair and preserving the environment and roping things off for wildlife to survive but it should be a 50/50 give here not just close everything off. I wish we could get rid of Gavin newsom he's just a big pain in the ass! In this state and it's taking the fun out of everything. I hope the electric vehicle industry falls flat on their ass! And doesn't go where they expect it to go. Everything sounds great in theory when it comes to electric vehicles but in the long run there's going to be so many hiccups through so many different agencies that people don't expect that are eventually going to come up. Putting a strain on the power grid with all these electric stations and electric vehicles eventually the power companies are going to get upset and they're going to want more money to rebuild their power stations and they're not going to do it so who's going to pay for it? This is not a place to grow up anymore for fun everything is a complete chaos here when it comes to living, the cost of living here and people coming here this is starting to look like a third world country on all of our major streets here in California and counties. It's time to move to the Midwest or somewhere where it's a more simplistic life and people can have fun without being bothered. Somebody needs to get Gavin newsom out of office and get somebody up there that's more realistic. And one more thing if people don't already know Toyota motor corporation the CEO of Toyota has said they're not putting all their eggs in the basket meaning they're not transferring their whole car industry into electric vehicles. The CEO of Toyota has said that he believes that the whole electric car industry is not going to go where they think it is. They're still going to keep making internal combustion engines and a few EVS but they're not going to be switching over completely like a lot of other car manufacturers. And I agree with him and I'm glad he's going to take a stand whole EV industry and not going all the way with it. When this whole EV boom falls flat on their ass! a lot of car manufacturers are going to be going bankrupt because they retool their whole car manufacturing process to ev's. And when it does fail Toyota's going to be laughing their ass that everybody else they thought that they knew better than they did. 🤣🤣
Almost a guarantee you and I rode those dunes at the same time… spent a big chunk of my childhood there… all the little atc tracks in the trees north of sand hwy and the runs to devils slide… As a kid we could ride atc’s all the way to Rivera Seafood and play video games…
@@mikeglamisdavevanandel7511 I remember that 🤣
I spent a lot of my spare time in the Pismo Dunes. I had to buy my first set of paddle tires in 1975 to get to the top of Devil's Slide. I remember when you could drive your buggy up the first ramp and get supplies, parts and fuel at the Sand Center. You could also drive your buggy all the way to the Pismo Pier to watch the Fourth of July fireworks. Sometimes we would camp on the beach and other times we camped at Oso Flaco Lake area. All easily accessible by vehicles, Jeeps and buggies. They were great times.
I was a kid when my dad and friends would go to devils slide in the late 70s and 80s was fun
I enjoyed the story and footage. Thank you.
great memories, 3rd gear wide open all the way down the beach !
Nice
That looks awesome. Wish I'd been there. I could only dream of stuff like this growing up in New Jersey. Why did they change the name?
Anybody remember when a cargo ship dumped all that lumber from here to point Sal?
