Palos Verdes Indicator Big Sat. WNW Surf 1.14.23

[@theprofitmohamhead1268]

We used to surf here in the mid to late 70's. 5-7'... maybe an 8' set occasionally. I'd never seen it break this big there. Never. You guys were lucky that day. Thanks for the vid👌👍👏💪

[@Erik-gg2vb]

Do you remember Jeff Trakis (spelling)? He and I went to PV High. He died at the bay. He was by himself so they don't know but they think his board hit his head and knocked him out.

The most grounding part of this video was the sound of the rain hitting your equipment! It really set the stage for the weather we have been having here in SoCal of recent which produced these epic waves. Well filmed! Thanks for sharing! Pleasure to watch!

Awesome video. I miss surfing the cove

You do know the Cove is different break than the Indicator, right?

Between the Lunada goons and this Crew . . . ehboy. Was the last time they surfed , 15 years ago too?

[@cecildawg-w2p]

No wonder the locals keep outsiders away. They don't want others to see how they surf. Maybe?

Palos Verdes is a great place to surf. I live in the inland empire, but come here because it is less crowded than most other spots in So Cal. Also, PV is fantastic for learning to surf.

[@clarkewi]

Awesome.

All I need are some tasty waves, a cool buzz-- and I'm fine...

[@aaronliebman1670]

i’m sure the locals love that this is on youtube lol

[@nautiloid]

After years of hearing about the locals here, it's comical to watch them try and surf decent waves. Everyone is over-gunned and they surf like they've never seen the place before. Same day at silver strand and Hollywood saw guys standing in barrels with their hands over their heads. Wow.

[@ugocdf7706]

They sure😂seem to need😂someone that show s them how to not waste so many peeling lefts,I am shocked by the extreme low level of ability to ride properly and take advantage on a day like this with these kind of ideal conditions There are some waves here shown that I would be happy to find in my next life..... Keep jamming and riding

[@shacktime]

FTG. The PV jackasses are why we have these awful “surf rage” laws now that have RUINED lineups everywhere in California. There’s reasonable levels of lineup enforcement and then there’s the PV f-kheads. Screw them for wrecking the sport with their Richie Rich spoiled brat thuggery.

@@Sabale-dw5fd I'm just tired of people thinking that they can localize the ocean when they actually suck at surfing or even being a water men. Surfing and being a water man has nothing to do with hassling people that don't live directly on the cliff. The place hasn't been a secret since the 70s. I literally have a book from the 70s of all the surf spots in California and it's in there. Just a bunch of grumpy old men that think because they have a lot of money other people shouldn't be able to access the ocean.

@@Sabale-dw5fd I don't think people are going to be flying from all over the world to go surf that Burger. It's not even that good of a wave. What those old geriatrics did by trying to localize it really actually made it more famous than it would have been if they would have just been friendly. Now everyone that's ever served knows about the place because of their actions. Pretty much backfired on them. No need to tell the poster to take his video down, or you are just doing the same thing they did. Don't mean to come off as rude but if any place in the world deserves to be over ran it would be that place. But like I said I wouldn't worry about it, it's not going to turn into honolua Bay or something. People just don't have the desire to go to California anymore and there is plenty of spots for everyone
