  • The winter of 2018/19 delivered two of the biggest swells to ever hit the South Bay. The footage you see here was shot between December 2018 and January 2019.
    Every single frame of video you see in this movie was actually captured simultaneously with my stills camera shooting from the same tripod - and the stills camera always had priority - so there's some jerky movements here and there; but I hope you enjoy watching it as much as I enjoyed learning to slap all the footage together and cut mercilessly to keep it under 10 minutes.
    If you're not a Rush fan, mute the audio and play your fave music as soundtrack.
    Thanks for watching

    The only issue is that most of the waves look so tempting and perfect, but they just closeout and smash anything inside it. I find it hard to find the right spots to catch the wave at Porto and knowing which ones are worth catching. I’m not used to Porto

      porto is like the fools gold of waves. looks so real and tempting the shape coming in looks promising. the peak is a-framing you drop in excited and get clamped down 9.999999 times out of 10.. lol

      wolf yeah. For a 3-5-6 foot wave, the drops are so steep and the waves in general can get so punishing. It’s only fun in the morning, and even then, the most tempting waves suck unless you catch them at the ends where you don’t get smashed on the inside
