Big and Out of Control Surf hits Los Angeles 

Hats off to these men, the paddle out must be brutal 😰 then finally catches a wave and it's a closed out!

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!

Nice job documenting the big swell!

Good ole South Bay… knee high and walled, chest high walled, waist high and walled, 10’ and walled 😂

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.

Yves is cool. Good surfer nice dude🤙🏼

Brad you should make a short of the wedge or something cause it will get insane views because of your quality content

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!

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!

does LA never get big or something? looks pretty standard size for Aus haha

What day was this? This past Friday?

Wonder how breakwall looked

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. 😀

Ready for the next one 💪🏽

Super perfect n endless peeling surf n rippin’ her up 😎🤙🏽

What's the background song at 1:25? thx

This swell held up nicely in SD

I bet hammerland or Redondo break wall was holding up Better..this looks like el Porto at Rosecrans

I guess if that's what you call fun!

2:3 dude praying to the surf gods for one non- close out. Lol

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.

🤩 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

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.

When was this?

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...

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

My barrel dodging on full display lol

I hope to get good enough to be in one of your wipeout videos

👍👍👍

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. 😂😂😂

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.

Tell a story about banzai pipe line

I’d rather drive to a reef or point that might be smaller but way more fun

That one dude pulling out of the lefts backside a bunch is j narrowly escaping death

Why are people ditching there boards on 6 foot waves😂😂😂😂

err, hawaiians might have a different view to yours on these waves, just saying

Not a single person pulled in

1-2 ft for us in PNW

looks like jersey no turns just barrels

Complete Kooks riding 4 foot close outs! They couldn't make the makeable ones! Kookarama!!!

very few bones were thrown on this day

To shitttpipe we go!

Deadly? Come on man

Kenny g rox

Wonder how Blacks was.

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.

hi

not that big. looks clean. CLOSE OUTS

The kookery is painful to watch.

Not worth it

Dude in the hood was clearly a competent surfer but his style was so bad.

Dang I just moved to the desert from LA to escape the vaccine mandates, so bummed out it looks like fun out there!
