Thanks a lot legends!! -
Sic slabs at the wedge. Only thing that spoilt it was too much slow motion
This seems like such a unique spot for this kind of sports, the way the waves form, the energy they produce, pretty amazing and scary at moments. ;-)
All hail Three-Armed Scissor!
Them 662 Boyz are some rad mo fos!
Wedge is a beast of a wave ridden by bodyboarding beasts. Shaka Mahalo ♨♨♨
finally a video i can make it through without killin the volume... decades since this happened. well done
Haha thanks 😂👌
I used to live in riverside ca, I used to hit the wedge in the 90’s and early 2000. Then life changed and I ended up in Northeast Ohio!!!!lmao.God I’d do anything to feel the mighty pacific again!!!Wedge sessions ditching high school and smashing to Newport for real life lessons!ahh the good old days.
From HB now live in western PA. It hurts my feelings when people call Lake Erie, "The Beach" lmao.. they just dont know.
Ohio? OMGosh, so landlocked 😢
Damn, I thought that intro was the whole clip! Holy 🔥🍿
Wesley really brought out the big guns on this project! So much epic footage, what a legend. Thanks for watching 🤙
@@WeBodyboard_Official It’s ridiculous! Thank you Wesley 👑
Thats cool that blair made the cut, that guy is a legend with his sick skimming abilities 🤙🏽
Body surfed the Wedge from 1985 to 1999 🌊
@@georgegallagher4779 you maniac! lol. No board. Just body surfing like my dad!. Love it. I’m from same era but in Sydney. I was watching the wedge in magazine and footage, I seen some body surfers take it on. Crazy.
❤ the Wedge, no other place like it
Gotta surf at the Wedge to understand it!❤
Im from the 1990’s to 1998’s era of boarding. Makes me wonder where all the old guys are now. Used to ride (Manta and BZ or rheopaipo) used to be a guy who charged the wedge but would never take sponsorship or go into competition even though he’d win. I think it was Chad Barba. Full close outs. He would say it’s his local home beach break when it was heavy.
Chad barba was actually #5 in bodyboarding magazines readers poll one year, the inside really helped his career I’m guessing
Hasta ahora no entiendo como el bodyboarding no está en los juegos olímpicos.
😂 agreed! It's the perfect egalitarian surfing discipline 👍

Everything happens so fast at the wedge that the slow motion really added to the video. Really good, thanks!Back in the day my hang out was Moonlight beach or Swomies down south. 👍
Fun to watch this edit of my footage. Nice job 🤙🏼🔥❤️
Thanks Wesley! Glad you enjoyed the edit and thanks again for trusting me with your footage. Legend 💥🤙
Killer Clips Bruh ❣️🙏💙🌊

Thanks for the stoke. Good music for the beatdown. Some classical DJ somewhere with that chill voice is like: The was Beethoven's Beatdown of Bodyboarders in C-minor.
🤣👌
@@WeBodyboard_Official @ 4:32 when the bottom drops out, and you could swear, you could drive a semi through it…
dope
Chaka. Braaa. todos santos cerditos. Bcs,😊😊
I grew up at the Wedge. In 92 only a few people would actually surf it. Most people I knew had neck and back injuries all under 18! Times have changed….
The El Rollo in the opening frames is what dreams are made of. I hope he pulled it? 🙏💙🌊
Thick shallow heavy I miss it
i know this is probably a dumb question. . but i was just wondering how do the riders not get totally knocked out or like really hurt on the shallow ocean's floor? this is incredible and so gutsy and wild!
It’s a mix of experience in heavy waves, knowing how to “fall” and at the end of the day, some luck.
Place isn’t forgiving..you really have to know what’s up
MB 7-SS ...
way better music... almost a whole video with 12 year old angst guitar
7:13 my real reaction: I don’t understand
😂👌

2 min of slow motion at the biginning really ruins the video. its extremely not exciting.
