Like many of these rock slab bottoms on La Jolla point, at low tide the inside slab rock at this place is about one to two feet deep. With a series of ledges that go out deeper and deeper at an extreme ratio, which is why it gets so dam hollow and powerful. I enjoyed surfing it in the 60's through to the late 90's, in the lesser crowded days. But when it gets this heavy you don't really have to worry because only the good guys are out. I'm retired now. Too many sports injuries for a 67 year old. It's definitely a spot for gnarly young surfers in their prime.

Honestly it wasn't a lot of burning. I was out that day and the wave is so fast out of the south that if you get behind the section you can't pump your way back in. And a lot of people were too deep to make it

guys go on surf line and checkout the rewind from this day to see how unbelievably crowded it was. I've never seen a worse crowd in my life. Usually if the waves are big enough like they are here, it keeps it from getting packed, however the size didn't seem to keep anybody out here. So surfing become like this. I miss when it was a niche activity.

@batboy5023 4 ай бұрын

@@kimj1741 yea. I guess this is just a goto spot when a solid south swell comes through in the summer. for my local beachbreaks like this, as soon as they start going 8ft and above hardly anyone paddles out. yet these waves were huge and extremely heavy yet everyone and their mama was on it. must be due to how close to shore the waves were therefore limiting the difficulty of the paddle out.

@kimj1741 4 ай бұрын

@@batboy5023 absolutely but also the fact that we don’t get a lot of big surf out here that looks like that. Everybody and their brother is gonna paddle out. I believe Caity’s home spot is down south in San Diego so it’s nice to see her up north. The Fiji Pro is coming soon and I’m sure she was happy to get some lefts.

That was me at 4:18. Point has been my home break since birth, learned to surf out front and I WILL drop in on people I don't know, especially non locals. Like it or leave it. Side note, most of those "burns" were way out front and majority of the guys behind wouldn't have made those waves.
