I can't even begin to say how much I agree...so many otherwise great clips (not just surfing either, aviation has it's share too) are shot in the kneecaps with somebody's insistence of being "creative"...nothing takes the place of the sound of the surf when watching surfing...hell, even hearing the reactions of people is cool, as it's part of the experience.
NOTE TO VIEWERS >> YES,,, three clips were repeated. My bad. The J.O.B. clip repeat was intentional, and the other two,,,,, oh well, shniz happens! 🌊🌊 🌊🌊 🤣

I am on the East coast and it is crazy to see everyone in wet suits. It is in the mid 90s here and the ocean is like bath water some days. You wouldn’t survive an hour in a wet suit out here right now.
I remember breaking my favorite 5' 8"" board at the wedge, years ago when I lived in Fountain Valley, when it broke big we would surf, Newport, Huntington... Good ol' days :-) :-) :-)
@A Simple Gurl Hi there, lived in Fountain Valley, but went to Los Amigos High School...Totally not as cool as FVHS! But lived right across from the darn school, so...
Glad ya liked the clips! Yes, beaches were technically closed but we were all there before sunrise and fortunately the police didn't show up until 9:45AM.
Thank you for the great footage I went down there today got there about 11 just as the helicopter was flying over and telling everyone to leave the beach
@@HBSTONELIGHT Thanks John, I'm heading back tomorrow they say the swell we hold thru Monday. I was standing out in the street near the temporary fence, and you could see the whitewash crest of the Monster Waves.............😎😎🤙

Hopefully one of the riders will chime in on that question for you, Evan. I personally am not in the water on days this big. I've heard stories of people being held under for up to a minute.,
@@HBSTONELIGHT JOB is my boy!!! Your videos are AWESOME dude! Love em'! Thanks for posting them. I made surf movies for decades. I started with Super 8 film! Remember that?
So sorry for the couple of clips that got repeated. I was just trying to get some waves posted for you quick. Is it really that big of a deal?? 🤣 AS far as posting JOB twice, he's more than worthy!
Just natural sounds no music perfect
Thanks, Allen. Glad ya liked the clips (-:
I think I speak for us all when I say, "Thank you for not adding some crap music in the background."
Got it! 🤣
Better not to now adays, so many people stuck on electronics crave outdoor sounds. Hence the popularity of Asmr. Fucking millennials.

You’re very nice

I was at Laguna - They were like the Wedge but further out - its dangerous to get out of a bad situation by the rocks.
Those were some of the best Wedge waves in many years. (I’ll bet O’Brian thought so too). Well done.
Thanks. Glad ya enjoyed the clips (-: Check out the JOB barrel of the day if you have not already. th-cam.com/video/du5Y5ZRBzPA/w-d-xo.html

lol...
our currents flow the opposite direction...
At 2:10 there's 4 surfers (3 boogies) and 2 of them collide and both go over the falls. The other 2 successfully ride that wave. Too much traffic.
.57 to 1:04 was so sick! Freaking 360 on that! Bravo!!
