Farout man...that took me back. Lived at Kirra right through the 80s. So many epic days, mostly courtesy of cyclones. Abigail in early 82 stands out. Not necessarily for her size, but she hovered at around the optimum 500ks off shore and barely moved for damn near 3 weeks. Although not big, because of her stability and longevity the sand coming off big groyne and down through the point was groomed to perfection.
This is all before the superbank and in 87 the GDC stuffed the entire cyclone season at Kirra by bringing in a barge which sat offshore and dredged sand and pumped in close to the shoreline. The first cyclone washed it all out which created a massive very shallow straight sandbank about 200 metres offshore which took all the energy out of any swell before it hit the point. the following summer the GDC got the same barge back to dredge sand from way offshore and this time pumped it onto the actual beach. Again the first couple of cyclones in early 88 were non-events wave wise but the helped siphon some of the sand off the beach. Early March 88 Cyclone Bola rocked in and produced the most epic couple of days of pumping Kirra I'd ever experienced. Some days throughout your surfing life are so perfect they are forever etched into your memory banks. March 8, 1988 was one of those days. It was a Monday and big, thick, perfect barrels freight-trained off big groyne and down the point all day.
There was no way in hell I was going to work...and gorged myself on perfection for the next three days. Back to work on Thursday and was fired on the spot hahahaha...but soooo worth it.
Wow amazing man 👍😎
Hahaha, Brought back a memory.
29th Oct 89, got sacked, went surfing, got the best 8ft barrels ( apart from Sumbawa )
You do remember certain dates & swells.
Cheers Brother Pit Master 🙏 😂
7:16 he took it like a champ 😂👌
Bloody did 😂
Love seeing epic Goldie going off
Goldie Surfboard Shapers were winning. Tons of new orders no doubt. Broken Board Club.
Absolutely FANTASIC edit. Loved every minute of it.
12 Minutes of Absolute Gold - Thanks Lads.
Beautiful. Ty hon. Loved the music too. 😊
Not click bait. Dig that!
Good Kirra Ty. I watched a couple of times just because of the footage. My break is such a short big ride...fun seeing these long makable sick rides. Envious!
Wow what an awesome and exciting wave!!!
Shacked... Very cool vid man
Great clips and loved the vibe music!
Super maruru pour le clip vidéo Jah Jah 🤟🤙💯🌴🤟🤙
does anyone remember the super-superbank?....I got barrelled from behind the rock at snapper to North Burleigh...pretty sick
Capping lol maybe to Kirra not fucking burls
It didnt go thru to Straddie??🤣🤣
What what Delete
Give it up for homie cruising on the big board.
Why is there so much hate in the comments below? It's a bad ass video in every way in my opinion.
beautiful beast!
Sick.
Brazzo boys out there ruling it...showing the locals how it's done
LOL Brazzo boys watching from the shore
@@poyter789 Letting the locals have the leftovers while they chill with the locals girlfriends
AHAHAHA 4:04 funniest part of the video. That boogie got snaked really hard.
Was too deep, deserved it
2:23 is so sick
hazwaz Yeah cool to see someone else stoked on that. I don’t know how he made that! Menntal!
@@sector783 being mick fanning helps.
I jumped out of my chair, when he came out of that thing!
Where the frkn jet ski come from? Better yet, where did it go?!!!! Some grande hue is required to do in that shallow water with pumping waves!!! Aye Carumba!!!
me at 8:24 :)
All I can say is....DAAAAAAMMMMNNN!!!!!!!!
Good video, i love when the edits are not in slow mo
Can't beat Oz for waves
I loved the music, who was it? (Seriously)
Totally tubular mannnnnnnn!!!!!!
Good God that music bradda !?!? What were you thinking ??? The beggining 😥
I think it matches pretty well
Dreadful
better with cool jazz. nice
ALL TIME
My ideal wave. Overhead, thick and hollow, going right - and FAST as living fuck.
World star!
Damn, i didn't know that the cyclone swell hitting the gold coast was accompanied by an earthquake.
dopy the earthquake was at like 3 in the morn
Heaven
Needs more jet skis.
Throaty! Going freaking off!
Every day in Bali
I agree with C P, I grew up here, this is the exception to the rule! It is normally pretty good hum. While I have developed my back handed skills here (I'm a goof), I surf mostly D'bah now, as the superbank only pump's when it er, um, pump's! I've had better waves at Maroubra in Sydney. And don't underestimate Macca's (Mackenzie's bay to south Bronte on a solid swell! Fuck the gold coast! And I live here. 20 days a year if ya lucky.
Felix!
🙏 Mother Nature 🙏
Yewww these vids are mental
The east coast surfers are in a bubble. While these are great waves, it's just an average regular good day for Western Australia.
wyd, im in Perth and its dead flat most days :(
They call that 4ft on the Goldy :-)
Just make sure you have a shark shield...
Agreed. Pacific-indian Ocean vibe the best. Whoooooo!!!!!!! Fog it inside wombs always. Alomahalo. Jimbokimo.
Not if you live in Perth, no waves here, it's shite.
awesome, except music soundtrack.. I take it your dads from Sydney and your Mums from Ninbm?
🤣 classic
Animal altas ondas
🤟🏿🤟🏿🤟🏿🤟🏿🤟🏿
is poopies there
jet skis really?
Killer swell, look at those freight trains just draining, DA boy'z were charging pedal to DA metal- cheehuu!
Muito louco
Anyone being towed while people are paddling is a piece If work. Jet skis are lame
WHY is it even with big swells that the east and north east coast waves are weak and powerless compared to Southern coastal breaks reef point sand and Bommies W.A. S.A. VIC & TAS , is it because cold water swells move faster? We see for sure that they are thicker down here and doesn't need warm to hot water cyclone to create our powerful slabs of swell coming in sets of 3 to 6 typically, but generally 4, with the 1st being smallest 4th the biggest but a 6 wave sets are all over the shop, 1st wave can be the biggest, Dose anyone know why these things are so?
I 1st became aware of this as a kid with mates from QLD coming down here and commenting on how much punch even a 4 foot swell has here and 6 to 8 foot was like paddling in front of a train
The length of the fetch can be much longer down south, and the longer the fetch the more power builds. In SE QLD we get some big south swells that have a long fetch from a long way down the bottom of the Tasman, mainly in Autumn and Winter. They come in with twice as much power as other swells. Very few spots in SE QLD can capitalise on these solid south swells, but if you know, you know! One spot in particular is a South swell magnet, and 6-8ft is absolute carnage, world class beachie bombs.
Grh Haddybow I know what you mean! I lived in Syd for 8years and moved down to VIC 1yr ago and when its 4-5ft it feels like im surfing 6-7ft 🏄🏻 🌊👍🏼
99% of these waves were not Superbank.
Agree lots of big groyne Kirra mostly
Tv show music
Nope, no barrel dodgers here!
쥑이넹
Really nice waves would love to have been there BUT! somebody please fix the shit awful music i think it gave me arse cancer its so and certainly made me want to cut out my eardrums
Music ruined the first half for me. Sad because the surf was incredible.
painful sound track
Fuckin brah boys
WTF!
Great footage - but what's with the music? It kills the vibe.
I wish surf video uploaders will stop doing this and just leave the sound of the ocean, wind and crashing waves.
David B, shot from the beach surrounded by people? Would you prefer idle talking and a random and cringe yeeewww?
@@davog1946 Fair call mate.
The music is way too distracting...
so much better with the v way down
or off.
Music far deeper and sophisticated my suggestion... Mother Nature clearly is that! 🦉
Booooo.... Turn ya volume down ya whacker! LOL
Love the beats. Really enjoyed that :)
First thing I see is a fucking jet ski.
Good video bad music choice
alex barroso Better than the garbage indie rock from garage bands 10 people know.
“Brazzo boys out there ruling it”. Who the f cares?
that super ugly one.... made it.... that was me. cool music
Any women surf?
