Fun to watch. Back from 1973 to 1980 I was out every big day at the Wedge and even the little days. I would ditch college classes, was fired from a job because I called in sick and they found out I was out. I broke my nose twice, dislocated my shoulder 3 times and finally tore my rotator in my left shoulder and could not paddle any more. I was known for my Superman style with both hands in front working like a foil. You see some vintage films from the time I am probably in them. I miss those days but then I miss being young and foolish. I still get out but 6-7 feet is max and I use a bodyboard now. Now I am the old fart making the kids on boards pissed because I make them look bad. Hand loose and see you at the beach.

@artist you might know. When was that Balboa Jetty completed that makes the Wedge wave. Why I ask, is did you know that John Wayne (Marion Davies) a school mate of my Dad ruined his shoulder body surfing Balboa, and could not be admitted into the service in WWII, so he went north and started working on sets in Hollywood. I am just wondering maybe he is one of the most famous casualties of the Wedge.

These waves give the name the Wedge to this beach. Wow, incredible. In the 60s I body surfed the wedge, and no one ever used a surfboard in those days; it was assumed you would just die if you did. Now I'm so old and decrepit, it's a challenge for me to conquer the big surf in my bathtub.

I used to body surf it back then as well. We would head down for the storm waves on red flag day. One day they would label epic today, me and a buddy were surfing with the names from surfer magazine who was there doing a special edition. We were in there with them, just not famous. After I caught a big one, one of the camera guys from the magazine came over to compliment me asking who I was. Ha, I told him nobody famous, The shot he got appeared in the mag, labeled unidentified surfer! Too funny! I’m 80 now but still go down to watch. Your body wears out but you never lose your eye for it. I can tell if they are in the right place to catch one and can still look out and see a swell that will be good! Bummer to get old.

I used to body surf without fins in the 50s, 60s and 70s. I finally got a pair starting in the 80s and it made a world of difference. Never had a wetsuit so I didn't have that extra bouncy. After decades of competitive sports, outdoor 'fun' and a landscaping business my joints and body in general gave up. I'm only 71 but had to quit trying to play in the water at 68. I really miss it. I had never seen body surfing videos in big waves and now I'm thinking "my god, no wonder I'm in such bad shape now". In all those years I only had one time I really looked death in the face. Scared the hell out of me and I called it quits for the day. But I was back out there the next day. 🤗

The Army Corp of Engineers destroyed the Wedge. Instead of pulling up the huge boulders and putting them back in place they put small boulders and granite shards on the jetty. It has never been the same. Now it's a huge clamshell into the sand. I had the good days there. Then I moved to Ventura Country and had Zuma all to myself on waves over 8 feet. I rode 17 ft perfect lefts and rights and I was the only guy out. The lifeguards would sit in front of me, and old gray haired man and watch in amazement. Yours truly, Frontslider.

The larger waves were obviously too powerful for a true complete bodysurfing ride. The human body in relation to that much size and power can only accomplish so much. You'd have to have tow-in bodysurfing or something like that. The power of the waves in the larger waves here sucked the guys to the peak from which they simply dropped. That's a failed take off. Some of them recovered from the drop, and being able to recover in waves like that is definitely impressive, but a really impressive ride would have been being able to hang that face and ride the shoulder into the tube. Only the rides on the smaller waves were accomplishing that, but even then, the tubes on the smaller waves were not that clean or accessible and their bodies were being sucked too far back against the tube. Here's a large wave very successfully ridden by knowing how to choose a wave and positioning correctly to avoid the peak and find a rideable shoulder into a negotiable tube: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jIaxgH-bf89_jKc

It's not the size of the wave that is the problem, it's the SHAPE of the wave which is determined by the ocean bottom. I've successfully bodysurfed waves this size in Hawaii, in a hurricane swell at Makapuu on Oahu- this ride is so short, it's not even worth doing in my opinion

you guys are both wrong. Wedge can get over 20ft. it can even get up to 30 from trough to peak. Secondly 3ft swell? are you f**king blind? Arduous, junk wave... If you have never surfed it don't knock it. I have gotten some of my favorite barrels at this spot.

Remember the swell in 2000-2001. It was 30 foot.foot. Alot of video was taken and a couple of girls got swept out, knocked out and thrashed! Respect The Wedge if you know of it or not...

I don’t understand all the people standing on the beach and not playing in the water. What are they even doing? Why stand around aimlessly when you could jump in!!!

Is that actually surfing or the equivalent of runing along a road in pitch-dark hoping not to run into something. I can appreciate surfing but this looks kinda absurd and we'll pathetic
