RAW - Fearless Professional Skimboarder/Surfer Attempts to Ride the Most Dangerous Beachbreaks

[@K4TaY]

SICKEST SHOT I'VE EVER SEEN AT THE WEDGE. 6:35 Perfect Focus. Perfect Angle. Great Light. Well done sir

[@lucamoreno768]

perfect wave too

[@dl7694]

Some of the best memories of my adolescent years there. I had to move after my parents died but I will make it back. Thank you so much for posting this. Tyler is absolutely sick and is a good guy by all accounts. Cheers from CO.

[@SoCal760]

I met Tyler at an event at the Laguna Beach Hobie. He was so chilled, the nicest guy. This dude is sick AF in the water, absolutely fearless and pulls off some amazing stunts. Why isn’t he getting more recognition n sponsorships????

[@johngarin8290]

And that's what Life's about, Max Ur Moments, Onya Tyler, & who could be fan of his pure enjoyment, Thanks for post, Top Shelf

I really enjoy your style of video. The guy just before and after 7 minutes is SO good. Very distinctly smooth, flowing style. RESPECT

[@Atomsk4200]

@6:29 The Wedge of a lifetime for any skimboarder. That was an incredible break.

[@OldManPaxusYT]

pure epic that one... p u r e e p i c

[@richwilliams5441]

That was sick

[@anthonydavis1894]

Great footage..Breaks hard and breaks fast.. super RAD session.. Big ups to all those involved

[@marcusteblano6376]

The skimboarders get annihilated every single time, but keep going back for more- insane.

[@rizdog9191]

Finally something raw

[@gregoryhoover5875]

This dude Tyler IS totally fearless. Much respect bro.

[@LordFlashheart1]

it must be ace sitting out in the lineup scratching around for position to get in the right spot and have someone run and slide in from the beach and snake everyone. awesome

[@caiokf]

i came to the comments to write this same thing

[@WebReels]

I have ridden there a bunch, it’s like a mosh pit and very chaotic. One of the most dangerous waves in the world very shallow. I have seen a lot of injuries some critical. Everyone that rides there gets injured at some point, including me. Either bouncing off the bottom on your head or ground across the bottom.

[@legionassassin2722]

@Flanagan Frederic did you not see the person with a body board that went over the falls because he cut him off

[@madfox7777]

@Flanagan Frederic priority doesn't work like that. It's snaking and it's a douche move

[@madfox7777]

@Flanagan Frederic fair call. Runs a little different elsewhere. Deepest furthest out in the water gets the wave. Anyone further in gets left overs, with people skimming the last to get options

[@WebReels]

Excellent footage! Only the best waves, well done!

[@Dang3rMouSe]

6:29 Smooth as silk

[@jonathansantos6009]

🌊Good surf spots and examples. Thanks everyone for keep the beaches safe and clean.🌊

[@benjaminw.1471]

I like a closeout barrel as much as the next guy, but this is just insane. Huge props to the riders for charging those

[@crowtein6104]

Rad! That’s a gnarly little break.

[@gabe1392]

lol when the surfer pushes the spongers head down when he drops in on him. lol so funny!!!!!!

[@chuckcastle7709]

Conklin v Stanaland, 20ft+ at the wedge pay per view. $50k goes to the winner. I'd pay good money to watch that!

[@nitromethane3432]

The first time I swam at the wedge I almost broke my neck. That break is scary

[@scotteastman7219]

Yeah buddy I feel your pain I hit that place when I was blitzed. Sobered me up real fast.

[@jamess4869]

Being a surfer for over 60 years leads me to a question??? How many fins have been lost at the wedge?

[@mandatethis8024]

James S I’ve had both fins wrapped around my knee caps at The Wedge! Even with fin tethers ,,, worth every sand pact nasal cavity!

[@kotabathory8026]

James S you’re full of shit

[@RaulEdu33]

These guys risk all sorts of injuries in the name of fun! Such a heavy shore break with over 50% closeouts 😅 Epic Skimboard sessions.

[@kurtdixon4700]

Wow! The sound quality is amazing!! I'm working in the desert and gearing waves were just amazing!!

[@thisismov]

Thats good to hear! weve been working on that side of our production for a little while now. we want it to be like youre standing on the beach with us!

[@kurtdixon4700]

Well I guess it worked!!

[@fredrickstephens5586]

Kurt Dixon: If I may ask - what kind of “working in the desert” are you doing?

[@shanedye7295]

That layback was insane!

[@theil6]

The Sand Blaster Close Out waves...! OMG Big Balls

[@benmiddleton4365]

That's some pretty hardcore commitment to shallow wipeouts right there. Hurts just looking at it.

[@shelparks988]

I like watching all these epic barrels. Just glad I'm not apart of a crowded chaotic line up.

[@IantoCannon]

4:45 see him go over the falls

[@rvmcwhorter]

Get in the curl !! ..... Hahaha lolololo . That's awesome audio !

[@respectanimals2]

Amazing, just amazing 😉

[@nomdaploom]

Not sure I understand what's going on here - the skimboarders start from shore and ride the small wave coming off the breaker to get out to the big one and their reward is getting pulverised by a bigger wave that has the characteristics of an industrial washing machine. Every time. Why?

[@tosho7523]

nomda ploom 🤣

[@clarkewi]

Tyler, you are MADDDDD!!!!!

[@JimJohnson777]

I like the way they charge the waves knowing that if they get one there’s an 80% chance of wipeout.

[@PHiLiPPiNESCENES]

WOW! GREAT JOB!

[@fattyz1]

The hand held is boss.

[@surfsup5757]

That was some serious skimboard shred. Was this at the Wedge?

[@eh7357]

It is incredible

[@sharkair2839]

stunning...

[@mikesrcgarage]

If you love getting shacked up just to get pounded the wedge will serve you up some heavy pounders! Nice! dude rips the skimboard 👊😝🤙

[@0biwan77]

I like to watch surf clips but I've never seen people running into a wave from the beach. running into a substantial wave.from the beach, , can someone explain this break to me. the mechanics of this amazing ride that seems to always end badly. fantastic job in editing. thanks so much

[@pabloff24]

skimboard, search it

[@harold9232]

The guy times the flow of the backwash which is the wave that goes up the incline shore and then washes back,think there's a slight rebound off the pier that combines to create this wave that allows the skimboarder to ride towards the oncoming wave. Just before they meet,he can pick his line and enter the oncoming wave from a bit behind the peak and thus get nicely into the barrel. It saves paddling in and puts him in the sweet spot every time cos the two waves always meet and he just needs to find a good line for the barrel.

Muito divertido!

How the hell you get Pto. Escondido shots mixed in w the Wedge? EDITOR PLEASE!

Where's the Puerto and the Cabo and the big?

If he gripped me like that in a barrel he wouldve broken a nose that day too😂

Tough guy huh ..?

just picturing how bad it would fuck up your legs and ankles if you got launched from the top of the wave onto the sand

I don't know shit about surfing, I don't live anywhere near an ocean but I've been fascinated / drawn to surfing my whole life ( mid 50's) Anyway, that's not the point 5:30 I see that swell in the back and think "daaamn this is gonna hurt"....then Kaboom! Someone ate that sum bitch I tell you what ! lol

[@ultrakool]

How is this location ever any fun (the wedge)? Perfect barrels into bone jarring close-outs are masochistic, imo :)

[@nickdecain1808]

ultrakool it’s because the wedge is the biggest spot on a south swell and it is always barreling, even on 1 foot swells

[@ultrakool]

@@nickdecain1808 whatever. all I'm saying is getting creamed each and every time isn't my idea of having fun.
