I was there, just a grom, watching from the pier just before the riots. Seems like a zillion years ago.

Wave, butt,wave, butt, wave, butt. And I'm ok with that.👍

I remember Perry Dane hogging all the waves. What a 💩

Awful surfing wow, amateur surfers surf better than that now that is awful

i remember watching guys like Todd Martin, Brian Szymanski, Todd Thornton, Trevor Christ several guys were my early influences

V land w commercials. Kook

I remember that day.

Riots were always caused by outsiders !

I was there... Crazy ,and they blamed the skaters . My bros dad had a double wide at the nine hole golf coarse that summer we smoked hash and drank beer... Punk rock was our soul with skateboard all over Santa Ana as I lived by Loyd's bank and the old guitar center

Young women have sure gotten larger compared to back then.

Yewww

What sets Vland apart is the double up like at 6:11. Or at least so it seems from my POV, never having been there.

7:15 brutal

Anybody remember charcoal bowl

Moved to La jolla 1970s then back to Laguna,good old La jolla . For real brother the good old days

That girl is me.❤ I had just started dating Mark McNaught and he took me on this surf trip out in the ocean on an island is all I knew about it at the time😅 We had a blast.

Todos Santos November 1991 organized by Zeldo / International Surf Magazine. We spent the weekend on the island and slept in the lighthouse. Epic guy - Skip (can't remember his last name) was running tours. Donovan blowing our minds. I'm guessing he was only 18 yrs old. Rad to have come across this video and remember the trip like it was yesterday.

Those apartments were low rent housing filled with cr@ckheads. Now they're multimillion dollar beachfront condos

Pottz what a Legend. Is it me or are the girls hotter back in the 80s 90s?

Better days in HB! Localism in full effect, no kooks or housewives in the water. No hotels. Main street was punk rock. Now its filled with yuppie assholes....no sole left at all.

That's funny I filmed that

love it old school bru

Donovan was so good at this time, the Kunny days!!

Walking from your car to the beach was an experience! It felt like the wild west where anything could happen.

Wave hasn’t changed one bit 😂

hepatitis a-z. poop rivers. all the communities in the area dump there raw sewage into the ocean,baja malibu is the most polluted water and air i have ever seen. the raw sewage smell gives you a headache

Im pretty young, dope seeing this footage. It feels like it used to be so popular back then. Only time I see more than 1-2 people if there is any at all is when it’s pumping.

my folks had a beach house up on the cliff at Calafia all through the 80s big right point would spend weeks down there surfing that right point all alone . now its gated community giant hotels on the point was nothing before the restaurant used to be a private residence with a right nobody but a few of us new about .. some glory daze back then El Nido was my favorite restaurant i heard was still going the sea bass was always killer . $5 lobster and all the beer u could drink at New Port those daze are long gone

Spicoli

Ensenada style fish TACOS 🌮!!!

You gotta love the fluorescent colors of the 80’s

man , kooks, people couldn’t surf back then. Half turns, weak wraps, don’t think it was the boards as much as talent. Weird.

Is that Ford with the webs on? Classic..

Gotta hit Tony’s Jacal!

Jeffrey thats you Hodgie ripping as you did and still do...boys are coming to get you for TT Session before we all die...lol...Wheres Red Dog?

Soy cringe except for a few guys most of the other guys have lame style

Not an air in sight. Back then the floater was the move.

Great videos Mr. ABM. THANKS

Respect to the prosthetic leg guy ripping

So sick...Archie, all the way!!

Hodgey ...and Steve Ford on the backhand on a few.

Where I learned to surf in 1980!

Ah yes… wind n sea. Where the nepo babies meet the sea!

RIP Eggers. He had all the talent but just couldn't put it together.

RIP David Eggers. I surfed Hospitals and Horse Shoe a lot back then.

Talk about “uncrowded”!

I'm claiming people had better style back then and did more rail to rail turns. Not skipping all the hits and just flopping up and down waiting for the last section for the air. Also people were not sinking and missing waves by trying to look cool riding a 5,6.

Old school ripper hats off

Dudes had good style and did real turns back then .

Potts a Legend. Loved his go for it mentality.
