Filming surf from the Huntington Beach Pier

[@maverickm521]

Love this angle! It's very relatable, hope to see more video from this perspective. Thanks for sharing!

[@BradJacobson]

Thanks! It's interesting to see both sides of the wave although difficult to keep the surfers in frame.

[@bonebrew22]

I like how you include some shots of people wiping out and being generally kooks, makes me feel like I could make the cut one day :P

[@RodneyHaltom]

Always nice to see a new pierspective!

[@looperc358]

Brad! I'm living for this footage! 🙌 ❤

[@sugarthesurfingdog]

I really enjoy the perspectives and the emotions of the surfers. Always hunting for an optimal angle positioning and open to show your creative process, unlike most. And enjoy the peaceful commentary ! Love it ❤

[@tedleyreynolds5541]

Man-Bun alert! He'll probably go bou-fant long before it approaches pony-tail man realm. Heavy-set old guy was killing it though, such irony in surfing. Thank you. .

[@mrcaden44]

Great vid. Keep filming HB, love it!

[@BradJacobson]

Thanks! It's a great spot

[@mikeinhoodriver]

Great video Brad! Love this angle.

[@BradJacobson]

Thanks!. It's a fun angle although super tough keeping surfers in frame.

[@swaynno]

Man I imagined I was in the water on my Robert August 6' 6 HB. Great footage !

[@Hankrutherfordhill_]

I miss Huntington and "Tin Can Beach" 😂😂😂❤

[@sheilaobrien7156]

That’s cool man

[@BradJacobson]

Thanks!

[@jeffspicoli2643]

Great angle! Mix it up!

[@pickleballers]

curious why the sandbars at huntington beach pier are so much better than redondo, manhattan, venice piers. Aside from the obvious different swell/wind directions, is there any other reason why?

[@MapleBar777]

I wouldn’t discount the two reasons you named. I’d also add, coastal facing direction, south swell shading from PV and Catalina, and shelf shape. Used to live in Redondeezy (north and south) and now live in downtown HB. I miss the hilly terrain (compared to HB) and the strand, but I love HB and Newport. 🤙

[@kookarini]

Water isn't full of red tide like it is at Porto this week.

[@litvak10]

Do you still have some times that you want to be in the water? or is filming enough to quench your thirst. Great video

[@BradJacobson]

I still have the urge to paddle out especially on super fun days. Those are the hardest. I still manage to paddle out maybe once per month.

[@Kourkou_trelamenos]

Brad, you have conditioned us. When a swell comes I froth for waves and a new vid!

[@BradJacobson]

Thanks!

[@Bwmblairdoc]

What fins do you like in that Pro V behind you ? I got one for summer surf but didn’t get the fins for it yet.

[@BradJacobson]

I use the George Gree fin recommended by ET Surf shop. I like it

[@ralphiewigs2208]

6:30 That guy stole my move.

[@nikto_9547]

Great vid as always! Just wondering, what tripod and lens do yo use?

[@BradJacobson]

Thanks! I use a Canon 400mm 2.8 with Monfrotto legs.

[@nerdysurfer]

pacific water looks cold as hell

[@timkeane2907]

It is

[@ralphiewigs2208]

It seemed to be inching up last week but this week it took a dip.

[@timkeane2907]

Upwelling won’t go away

[@sheilaobrien7156]

Cool

[@pop6752]

Just started surfing went out to HB pier southside and got yelled at "learn how to surf and get out of the water" because I was duck diving a set and lost my board under the white waters. Surfing is suppose to be fun and that ruined it for me, but I still go out to the same exact spot every weekend because I want to get better. Sad to see surfers angry and mad when the ocean is open for everyone...

[@kflame957]

people have been surfing that pier forever and when you do stuff like that it can be dangerous for everyone. He definitely could have handled it a bit better but, instead of surfing a spot known for people being competitive and skillful go 10 min further down south and surf around state beach. You can find your own sandbar and not have to worry about anyone but yourself.

[@pop6752]

@@kflame957 All good, I surf there every weekend and I've seen the guy there every time, gave his tire a slow leak to say thanks. I def will check out other spots that aren't as crowded.

[@ParisLikeHilton]

No way he hurt your ego that bad. ​@@pop6752

[@kflame957]

😂 Good on ya. definitely some underrated waves down there. Everyone at pier thinks their better than everyone else and just wants exposure.
