- A big and out of control swell hit the South Bay region of Los Angeles on November 4th, 2021.
This swell was much bigger than forecasted but had horrible shape and a crazy thick fog layer filled the air.
The paddle out was a nightmare filled with 100 yards of soupy backwash and crazy set waves.
Thanks for watching. I'm Brad Jacobson and I'll see you on the beach.
Music: Blood Red Sun and Martin Landstrom
Hats off to these men, the paddle out must be brutal 😰 then finally catches a wave and it's a closed out!
You just defined South Bay surfing.
I love ur vids keep up the good work Brad. Nice to see how beach breaks work because here in Barbados all beaches are rocky, coral floored and most good breaks on low tide are a walk over reef. W love from Barbados!
Damn Huntington was so good on this swell. Only like 15 dudes out north n south of the pier n same size as porto but tons of corners
Awesome Brad! Love your channel. We had a memorial last Saturday for Tom Morey at the Manhattan Bch pier. Was surfed that day as well. It was huge!
Love the content, but would love to see some shots of the full struggle of getting under the wave
Afternoon session was the def the call. The negative low tide allowed weird sandbars to show!
Shhhh. 😜
Nice job documenting the big swell!
Great shots but you should have gone up to Topanga or another point break for some makeable waves. Was this a north swell?
Head high is the bar i set. Bigger means they can pound you. This video gets up to double overhead easy. 2nd half of video became pretty interesting. Enjoyed it.
Good ole South Bay… knee high and walled, chest high walled, waist high and walled, 10’ and walled 😂
🤣🤣🤣
Wonder how Luanda Bay handled this swell
Brendan McDougall Ha, have my wife drop me and a couple of my bigger buddies off and find out on the next swell! No windows to break or tires to pop 😂
Exactly why I prefer to hit the point breaks up north of there. It's inconsistent and never bigger than half that size, but I love long rides!
Brad you should make a short of the wedge or something cause it will get insane views because of your quality content
Yves is cool. Good surfer nice dude🤙🏼
What day was this? This past Friday?
32 duck dives for 2-second rides and closeouts? Guess it's good exercise and practice.
It was bigger than I thought! I am pretty sure i’m in one of those clips
Great vid!
What's the background song at 1:25? thx
I bet hammerland or Redondo break wall was holding up Better..this looks like el Porto at Rosecrans
I'm exhausted just imagining the paddle out
If Yves had a hard time paddling out, I never would have made it! 20 years ago yes. 😀
does LA never get big or something? looks pretty standard size for Aus haha
Super perfect n endless peeling surf n rippin’ her up 😎🤙🏽
Ready for the next one 💪🏽
Wonder how breakwall looked
This swell held up nicely in SD
I guess if that's what you call fun!
Malibu would have to be the spot on a large swell like this.
This is when you take a chapter out of JOBs book and just start packing closeouts like Waimea shorebreak!
Those waves are not out of control size. Stop hyping normal waves for that area. Try taping those size waves in Newport Beach around 52nd street.
Hollow and deep.
2:3 dude praying to the surf gods for one non- close out. Lol
💯.
When was this?
Thursday
This was actually Friday November 5th, waves were tiny on Thursday lol
@@julienb2730 how did I miss it!?
@@coleman7931 forecast said 5ft or something, none of us were prepared haha
🤩 WOW! No thanks bra. Even 40 years ago that didn’t look fun. Great looking waves and sizable but I’ve never fancied beach breaks. We used to get Moss Landing perfect back in the 70’s but it was brutally cold 🥶. In my prime, I remember going up to San Francisco and there were perfect waves but I only lasted 20 minutes before being rendered worthless. Crappy wetsuits and 5 degrees colder than Santa Cruz was really brutal. I really respect Northern California 🏄♀️. I used to be one. Went down to Hazzards at Cayucas? Montano del Oro and this was 1972-1974 with just a handful of local’s, my friends but it was actually 5 degrees colder than Santa Cruz. Really good 6-8 reef break but again our wetsuits sucked and I only lasted 30 minutes, just like San Francisco. I guess I wouldn’t have changed a thing except for the wetsuits…..LOL
There must be a shortage of step up boards in LA
Ha, nasty. I checked the cams, and at one point, El Porto was EMPTY
Except for me. I got the entire lineup to myself
@@theTurboS_ Nice
@@waltysalamander I went there at 4PM hoping to at least get a good workout and there wasn't a single person surfing from the pier to the jetty, it was so sketchy.
I can just see the frustration in them
Why did you go to a closed out beach? There had to be a hundred spots up and down the coast better than this...
My watch can verify I duck dove 28 waves paddling out & got stuck inside a couple times 🤣But got a few absolute gems in the process. Worth it.
99.9 % of humans have No clue how physically difficult this is and how small the time of glory is! You paddle and duck dive and nearly drown a dozen times and then you finally get out there. You turn and paddle for a wave only to go over the falls and try paddling out again duck diving and drowning for ten maybe 30 minutes only to get back out there for a three second ride. 😂😂😂
I'll just go ahead and reply to my own comment. We would drive 8 hours one way to surf for a couple days. Add up all the time riding a wave might add up to two minutes. 16 hours of driving for 2 minutes of awesome wave riding. That sums up how fun surfing is!
Brad, Brad an’t no Hodad at it again. The early turd gets the barrel. I’d like to see a short film with you narrating it about previous season.
Edit: dude at 4:16 on the 🕷 has the best stick for the conditions.
CHP Redondo Beach was so da kind RIP Walker foam. That damn poodle of his drove me nuts 🤙🏼🔱
lol...IDK brah. that's four foot Hawaiian...maybe five foot on sets. but this is in CA not Hawaii Nei.
I hope to get good enough to be in one of your wipeout videos
That one dude pulling out of the lefts backside a bunch is j narrowly escaping death
^same dude who got barreled on the right
Why are people ditching there boards on 6 foot waves😂😂😂😂
You tell em Bradley
@@julienb2730 they are barneys
@@braedensteele7590 ok captain Teahupoo
@@julienb2730 lets see you surf barney u prob ditch ur board on beach break close outs😂😂😂
@@braedensteele7590 so much chat and so few videos, absolute keyboard hellman well done Baerney Steele
Tell a story about banzai pipe line
He doesn’t live in Hawaii numnut scooter kook
I’d rather drive to a reef or point that might be smaller but way more fun
My barrel dodging on full display lol
👍👍👍
looks like jersey no turns just barrels
1-2 ft for us in PNW
Not a single person pulled in
err, hawaiians might have a different view to yours on these waves, just saying
To shitttpipe we go!
very few bones were thrown on this day
Complete Kooks riding 4 foot close outs! They couldn't make the makeable ones! Kookarama!!!
Deadly? Come on man
Went at 4PM, massive and way nastier than on this video; not a single person out. Ended up in Hammerland and it was pumping! Open faces breaking left and right.
not that big. looks clean. CLOSE OUTS
Wonder how Blacks was.

hi
The kookery is painful to watch.
Dude in the hood was clearly a competent surfer but his style was so bad.
Not worth it
Dang I just moved to the desert from LA to escape the vaccine mandates, so bummed out it looks like fun out there!
good riddance kook
I hear you brother I realize I'm gonna have to do the same too soon.
