Right now it less than 5 ft? 2 days and it will be 40 ft? I know the weather can change in a moment, but I don’t see the storm to do it right now? We’ll see!
Never surfed once. I don’t think I’ve ever touched a board. Been landlocked all my life.
But, surfing fascinates me. I enjoy watching it and can’t get enough of good docs like “The Big Swell,” and “Riding Giants.”
Anyway, I think this is cool.
Watch the documentary ‘Riding Giants’ if you want to see some great surfing action.
Jeff Clark started surfing Mavericks in 1975 when he was in high school. From 1975 to 1990 he surfed it by himself. The big wave riders of the day refused to believe that any place in California had large waves comparable to Hawaii and wouldn’t even come take a look. Eventually that changed, but in the meanwhile Clark had Mavericks to himself for 15 years.
“Surf’s up!”
But no rain.
