Bodysurfing EPIC WEDGE - August 17 - RAW FOOTAGE

[@honestmom1958]

Used to body surf the wedge all the time. And have the neck issues to prove it. Thanks for the great videos!

[@exxumma]

body surfed the wedge 100's of times when i lived in socal, pure heaven

[@larrydecoursey8056]

16 years old…drove from Vegas to The Wedge with my Churchill fins during the Summer of 1980 and then again in 1983. Meet Fred Simpson in the water and learned about the broken chicken wing also called The Fred…ended up going to college at OCC just to be closer to The Wedge…

lmao this is exactly like me and my best friend except we were 16 3 years ago picking up our first pair of churchills from some shop in pacific beach. He’s at occ now we were just out there for the week of the 4th and i’m watching this video missing it. good times.

[@JordanHerrera-do2xs]

[@nortynick9]

Man, looks like so much fun. Great footage. Epic stuff from Tim on the rescue!

[@JacuzziSurfer]

Yew thanks bro!

[@thelastrebelshow1627]

Man! When I was young I would be in the water 8 to 10 hours a day bodysurfing! Love the sport!

[@piercekaeo1135]

Body surfing is literally what real men do ngl thats why I love it so much

[@kattodoggo3868]

Oh yeah. "real men"

[@marinacam2755]

and women :-)

[@mamacitadelosperros533]

@@marinacam2755 - thank you for that! I was the first woman to bodysurf the wedge back in the 50’s. Moved to Hawaii and continued bodysurfing my whole life. Moved back to the mainland when I had to have hip and shoulder replacements in my 60s. At 76, I’d still bodysurf if I had the chance. I still have my Vipers and a couple of hand planes.

Him: wow he’s up in there Me: what is wrong with me

[@PopNTod]

Today I learned that Mark is the man.

100% Waterman!

[@austinsinclair2565]

Those are some big boy waves.

[@818rub3n]

i was at the wedge last friday around 2:30 pm ish, and it was completely flat... =[. is there a specific time of day to go or somthing? or was i just unlucky.

[@JacuzziSurfer]

ruben tinkel gotta wait for that south swell brotha 💪🏼🌊🏄🏻‍♂️ next week it’ll be total chaos again

[@818rub3n]

i heard somewhere, that specifically the wedge is only pumping in the early morning.., is that true? or can i show up at 3ish and still have it be like in your vid (during a good swell period)

[@JacuzziSurfer]

ruben tinkel typically high tide feeds it, but depends on the sand migration and a few other little bits

[@JacuzziSurfer]

Way more helpful that I could have been! haha thanks brother!

[@leblonfinswipeout4669]

Hi Steve.Can you believe that only today I saw this video?! Yes, me and Mark, we were there.👊

[@A-FrameWedge]

Somebody should design a wetsuit with a kind of a fin on the side of the wetsuit so you can hold the line better, maybe just below the shoulder on the upper arm.

[@sealt00th]

Nice video as always,l ive commentary makes me laugh everytime! What happened to the boy? Cheers

[@JacuzziSurfer]

Thanks amigo! The kid was a bit shooken up, but hes fine

[@HighwayStar71]

[@mamacitadelosperros533]

[@wave._.hunter]

[@Bruce516]

Those fellas were getting twisted!

[@Jamesferrell_]

wedge crew has to save the kid cause the lifeguards are too ignorant....

[@joelgaul6869]

what is up with that? really

[@Jamesferrell_]

idk maybe they weren't on duty or it was too early?

[@colereed1997]

Happens almost every big day

[@JacuzziSurfer]

[@JacuzziSurfer]

Ho Stevie! Yaaarrr

[@clarkewi]

Takes alot more skill to body surf than sponge.

[@brandonthomas2870]

Its takes skill to do anything well, bodysurf,sponge,skim,surf!

[@volcompdatour]

Yes I agree, shut the fuck up clarkewi. You should know fool

[@surfdetective]

O.G. time...pre paipo boards...and original transfer surfboard to body

[@HenryMatthews]

Hi

[@JacuzziSurfer]

Hey there!

[@HenryMatthews]

OMG

[@RNicolasRuvalcaba]

If you lose your board here and you don't have fins on you better be a damn strong swimmer cuz it is a bitch to get out with the back wash dragging you back out. Lifeguards should have some kind of electric wench with a rope to assist with pulling people out of there...

[@HenryMatthews]

Am I talking to a celebrity?

[@JacuzziSurfer]

haha def not, I'm just a hack with a camera
