Massive Surf Pounds Northern California 

once fear is over come, friendship is a possibility. However the ocean is so great she needs a reason to acknowledge your life. If I went out in such water, I would self identify as a fool, since I know enough not to try it.

I imagine some people think it looks just like skiing or snowboarding. Yeah, right. Maybe if it’s a ravine in an avalanche with 60 other people climbing up or going down at the same time. Some of these surfers look decent, but it’s hard to tell when they’re just so totally selfish and reckless out there. Look at all of them dropping in on each other.🙄

@@laurat1129 It's a trip to see folks acting like it's a chest high day in town, or at Malibu.

@@squatch2461 One has to be a good enough surfer just to get out there, no doubt about that. What's striking, though, is the lack of respect some of them seem to show for each other and the wave itself, nevermind their own safety.

That’s pretty big Yes it’s been bigger Any years you think much bigger than this?

@@latentsea If you got a 9' Epoxy - true dat. Look at how quickly the shoulders are softening up. Perfect for big p-shaw's...And you could definitely get pitted... So pitted.

@@brendoncassidy1316 I replied to you - but for some reason the reply disappeared. Censorship? Very odd. Another RU-vid Channel that has a lot of videos on Mav's has a day from last year called January 10th Dimension, that is positively massive. Peter Mel got a tow-in wave, not too long back, that he called the wave of his life, and he's been surfing there consistently for decades now. And I've seen lots of XXXL footage there, over the years. This is XL, I'd say on the bigger waves, L on the rest. I've ridden/swam it at L to XXL in 2015 and 2016's El Niño years. February 2016 had a big/beautiful XXL day that stands out. Getting caught inside a couple of times was a legit 'Underwater adventure'. One rider got a helicopter ride out of the deal.

Anything between Santa Barbara and San Francisco I consider central California 🤷🏼‍♀️

@@sarahjane4908central doesn’t start until you’re south of Monterey

Crescent City is NorCal.

Another spot I experienced close...really close...to giant surf was in southern Oregon. A place called The Three Sisters. Three huge rock formations that the waves would go by, and you could stand there and look down the barrel. Absolutely amazing! About 12 to 13 miles north of Gold Beach and the Rogue River. 🤙

Can you imagine what it was like (danger wise)before jet skies and people filming every wipeout?

Where in southafrica, western cape by george there hasnt been a wave all week

While I only know of it from what I've seen in videos such as these, it looks like the Wedge, Pipeline, or Mt. Everest now, just a free-for-all and a contest of egos.

@@laurat1129 Well said.

Because they have leashes

Yup. And zero flotation.
