In the late 80s if someone got barreled and didn't come out they didn't get any more waves for awhile. Wasting waves if you blow it and don't come out. Fucking skill level out there there was out of this world. Heavily controlled.
I'm seriously considering trying this! Just now I did a youtube search to see if anyone has done this before, and this was the only video lol! And these look like the exact wheels I found too. Are those 8 inch wheels or 6 inch? Is it possible to get some speed by wiggling it, or maybe swerving? My idea is to buy a skateboard board along with the wheels, cut the board in half, and mount the wheels to the skateboard. I haven't figured out the middle connection yet, I might have to buy a ripstik for parts. Do you think lowering the center of gravity as much as possible with these wheels would help? Thank you! Awesome project!
hahah no way dude, I just thought of making an off road ripstik the other week and just searched up if anyone had made one. i think maybe the actual board needs to be custom made, to proportionately function. I’m definitely interested in off road ‘ripstiks’ snd creating something along those lines. Id love to get in contact with you if you decide to go deeper into this idea.
Hanging out with your best friend on a quiet, open, grassy field, interacting with a wild coyote.... pretty damn cool way to spend an afternoon. Thanks for sharing.
It’s been a few months since I have rode my bike to the west side and for some reason this looks like insides on the east side. I am getting much older and these days it can be confusing on my memory. Please correct me and set me straight. Thank you much.
Stockton Ave. Low tide small to medium south swell. It loves negative low tides. I remember paddling out here in the 1970's pitch dark 4:45 am only to find 6 guys already out there. A true ledge drop, short but quick and hollow (for Santa Cruz). Surfer Magazine sold 1,000's of posters of a perfect peeier from there.
All hands on deck, grab your boards and prepare for some serious surf, beginners don't even bother because no one has any time to fish you out of the water, because we're to busy watching our own ass in this code red heavy surf, does that give you a good picture of what code red means
@@tommyhofer1176 Well let's see, in teahupoo when it was considered "CODE RED" you could drive a Mac Truck in those barrels and get every bone in your body rearranged in places they don't belong, on the other hand the waves in Santa Cruz on that particular day couldn't have a Hotwheel car from my sons toy box go through a barrel if there was any, does that help you understand the difference
@@tommyhofer1176 Those really are not big waves, winter does perduce bigger waves here, but we do get big waves in summer once in awhile, we just look at those waves and say that it looks fun out there, we definitely would not get all jacked up about them, they are just not that big, trust me
Code red, what a kook, I guess your not from Santa Cruz, or at very best a transplant, because if you think that's a code red for Santa Cruz then your doing the awesome surf we have in Santa Cruz a disservice, I'm from Santa Cruz and I can tell when it's code red and that was basically some average surf for Santa Cruz
@@martinmartin8871 That's no secret, if anything you should do a fake out and tell everyone pleasure point is the best surf in Santa Cruz and that the Westside hardly breaks, keep the Lane for us Santacruzians
@@clarkewi That's not unusual, it happens two or three times a year, mostly in the winter, what's unusual is when it breaks from the point all the way to the wharf, that's when it looks like Rincon
