I’ll never understand the inclusion of ghetto music in a surf video.
I has no idea Malibu could have such long rides, and such nice, big tubes,
even though the place was «legendary» when I was growing up. Way cool shots
— love the drone views. Thank you, and Hurricane Marie. That is one swell
to remember!
I’ve been surfing all my life, but I only remember Malibu breaking at 10′
plus on ONE DAY. When I drove around the corner to see the first break, it
looked exactly like Sunset Beach in Hawaii!! The waves were perfect, the
day sunny and bright, the wind slightly offshore… a truly once in a
lifetime occurance All of the «super stars» of surfing were out that day,
and the only drawback were the enormous crowds… it looked like the 405
Freeway at rush hour. But what an incredible, unforgettable day. I’ll
never forget it.
So sad anytime anywhere in so. cal when surf is firing its jam packed full
of every idiot that can paddle, and even those that can’t…too many
people.
insane is a exaggeration these waves are not that big this is a regular day
in nz for surfing
amazing cinematography and excellent beats…ignore the white trash racist
punk ass comments from the inbred kkk contingent…..anyone know the name
of the song? (tx)
Amazing footage…not sure about the dopey slowjam soundtrack… kinda
perpetuates the Spicoli stereotype of surfers…
the drone view barrel shots look awesome, nice work dude.
I watches this twice… mostly for the tunes :)
Nice. Looks like a good day on the superbank. Insanely crowded
god these waves are gnarly! I’m only 30 minutes from malibu, i should
really go!
Think I saw some Newport Point thrown in there for good measure.
Nice video! Looked just like Waikiki,haha. Great editing,love to see more.

Best Drone footage of this swell by far! You were on point with the
angles!!
Malibu firing.
Great video, pity about the tired same old LA music pitch though, kind of
spoils good video, Sometimes just the thunder of big surf is all one needs
to capture the magic. Just saying! never the less a good video thanks!
Top Quality Video… this really captures the » essence »
of the bu !
The Music is Counting down the days by Daniel Bambaata Marley. That’s
Ziggy’s Marley’s son. Nobody owns the Ocean, and the Music Rocks, great
Reggae Music! If you don’t appreciate it, that fine, but don’t Disrespect
it. Tolerance I see, isn’t everyones strong suit!
fuck white people…Malibu is Indian country.go fuck off and die
What a great video, shooting the pier at the end was awesome!
crowded! wah wah wah ! L.A. ,stay !
Yeah – fantastic bit of footage, I know the name Malibu and the fact that
it’s embedded in surf history for some reason, but I don’t recall seeing
anything spectacular in the last 35 years or so, but this kind of indicates
as to why the place has a place in surfs history and culture. Spectacular
footage that encapsulates what surfing is about and has now put Malibu on
the map for me visually!
What the fuck is that shit music associating itself with surfing? some cunt
spoiled the whole video. don’t bring it near surf for Gods sake..
I don’t get the rap with the surf. It just don’t fit.
Epic waves and crappy music. Oh, well.
Those are some mighty big steamers. Do you get dropped in on by floaties
out there, or is it so called because of the brown color? I drop the
occasional steamer in me steamer at Steamers. Feels all gooey and warm,
like a puppy made of chocolate fffudge.
Yellow board is a dangerous surfer
0:47 kook alert
my recollection is that usually there is no middle peak except in big
winter storm conditions. middle peak in a left break may not be as
dangerous as first peak that tempts people to ride up to the rocks but
there is still a reason there are not many people out there. normally all
the santa cruz spots are crowded.
after living there for nine years a long time ago it bothers me that santa
cruz has a growing bad reputation for territorial riders that are prone to
violence to a degree that is shocking to people there in the seventies. not
saying there hasn’t always been a degree of home turf pecking order but
nothing like what i’m hearing these days. i saw a show on tv about three
people surfing the notable breaks going up the coast from san diego to san
Francisco. they tried two spots in santa cruz and came out of the water
because they didn’t want to deal with the intimidation tactics. all three,
two guys and a girl, had won contests before so it’s not like they were
novice weekend warrior types, yet they were totally disrespected in the
water.
and it’s more than just that show. I’ve read it in several places.
i don’t know what riders with the respect for the ways of the waves can do
about it other than shame them, but even that these days can be dangerous.
ooooh, big wave guns in head high surf…heavy
this music is shitty
Always fun to watch at Steamers devin you out there???
Awesome!
How do you know they weren’t friend sharing a drop. I didn’t see any one
looking pissed off or calling any one off the wave. Enjoy the vid and stop
bringing your kook negative vibes. Big wave surfers share waves.
Chillout.
Making a Hawaiian surfer envious with that wave. Looked so chill. Wish I
had money to go to Cali for surfing… Damn…
Drop in city haha
good thing the waters cold cause you’re out there burning everyone
To everybody complaining about the drop-in – definitely don’t ever surf in
Santa Cruz. It’ll happen. You’ll probably cry.
No respect for drop in douche.
the footage of when hes holding the gopro in his mouth is fucking sick
Take a good look at the «drop in». He’s looking at the guy behind the whole
way. Probably friends, and he’s trying to get his friend on the gopro. Gave
him lots of room. The guy behind wasn’t yelling him off at all. The crew at
Steamer’s on a day like this mostly know each other. Where are all you guys
from?!? I’m guessing none of the critics are from Santa Cruz or have ever
surfed the Lane on a day like this?
I suggest pack a gun
Sweet
I like how that guy blatantly took off on that wave when the guy who was
still on it could’ve clearly made the section. what a douche.
what’s the locals vibe directed at respectful visitors to this break? this
wave looks like it would be heavier in person than on film. thanks for this
post nice film editing and music.
what’s wrong with you?! stupid kook. learn some respect and stop snaking
people’s waves douche
big waves, huge boards
