Surfing Lower Trestles with Kelly Slater and Pros July 2021

[@bignickenergy2042]

That guy on the bigger board absolutely rips! Such a groovy surf style i love it!

[@tzt1182]

Have to love the guy at around 10:30 getting upset at the guy he cut off for staying on the wave.

[@parabola8933]

He's probably a local, they seem to think they own the waves.

[@mobiditch6848]

@@parabola8933 sorry but trestles is world destination. Localism only makes sense at spots like silver strand that aren’t on the main menu.

[@parabola8933]

@@mobiditch6848 Grew up in Newport and surfed there all the time. There were definitely guys that considered themselves locals that surfed there. You're probably right though haven't surfed there for a long time.

Pretty rare you see a barrel at Lowers like 1:35

[@tzt1182]

Not much of a barrel though. More like a head dip.

[@motoz30]

you haven't been watching lowers very long.

[@christrejo9353]

Way better vibe just south of there where party waves are welcome.

[@RandallRamsey-ht2rn]

The fact that i may never get a wave like this and im still gonna work my balls off to try and get it is pretty crazy

[@teflonsean7677]

Looking out to the massively crowded lineup @ lowers, Kalani Rob perfectly states "The opposite of Uppers is not lowers, its Downers!"

[@SDA7337]

@@trevlahey no dude. lowers has 20 thousand people out when it's good, which is often, it's a cobble reef, there are three places you might have a chance of getting a waves, inside lefts, the main spot outside right there with pros and soon to be pros, or the swing wide which only comes sometimes. all the people sitting just inside the main take off get jack unless someone falls, or whatever. it can be torturous.

[@surfrewind4519]

what day was this filmed on? Was this the recent swell or one from 1-2 weeks aho

[@bigislandsurfing9025]

I have a filming question. What lense mm and camera are you using? And how far from the wave are you? I’ll be there in September to film finals and would like some info if possible. Thx.

[@SoCalSurfer]

Pretty far away. This was shot with a Sony A7iii in 4K with a 200-600mm lens. I shot in APAC mode so at 600mm it’s 900mm.

[@bigislandsurfing9025]

Depends on what waves you get during your session I guess 🤷‍♂️

why is it that so many people dangle their trailing arm while going backside

[@bloblablah7409]

Totally agree. At least Tudor has his own style (seen @ 1:20). Everyone else just has the typical hyper-aggressive cutbacks over and over but I guess to each their own

@@stevenhusmann3816 IB , home of the sludge. It will break any board into bits with a 3 foot wave ( I've had it happen to me , with almost MY nose nearly squashed ). What I would like to see is a "Qualified Handler" on a 12 - 14 foot Skip Frye 4 fin doing something different. There was a guy surfing on the Northside of the pier one day that was doing EXACTLY THAT ! And please - I mean NO disrespect to anyone and what they do on a wave , anywhere in this world , because I am now very disabled from 50 years of surfing , and surfing , ...! I miss it dearly, and I completely realize what a blessing and privilege it is to be part of "surfing". Aloha , hubby not Lydia.

Why are so many people wearing full body wet suits. Back in the day (the sixties!), we couldn’t wait to shed the wet suits. Maybe a jacket on a cold day, but never full body in July!
