The Truth About Surfing Huntington Beach

Well done putting this together! My son turned me onto this video. Subscribed! Keep up the great work.

In the '70's, my buddies and me would jump off the pier after our boards at 2:30 am to avoid the crowds. The light on the pier made it possible to surf at night.

Oh God...the memories ! Used to surf the south side of the pier , in the 1970s and 1980s . Night surfing with the pier lights was a blast too. Several famous surfers had local surf shops , but they were never open on good surf days. So many surfers who surfed the pier will have memories that will last a lifetime , of riding long clean waves , at the pier. I miss it but love to watch surfers riding where I used to surf .

Couldn’t have said it better as a local. Also thank you for diverting people away from the better spots here in HB 🤐 keep up the great work!

Born and raised in Huntington Beach 🏄 My brother used to make surfboards for Jack's Surf Shop back in the late 50s and into the 60s..

I used to surf there at night after watching a surf movie at the old surf theatre

Thanks 🙏 for painting HBizzle in a positive and fun light. I grew up surfing at the pier with Brett and Teddy, haven’t been back to the pier in years. Nice to see things haven’t changed much 😉

Such a well put together clip Brad. Love this!! Haha and couldn't be more accurate. Keep up the good work and i'll def keep up the support!! 🤙🏼

I live far far away from HB (Gulf coast yep), but it was the very first time I surfed a California wave in my life. Story time: I was in town for some work related stuff and met these dudes out at a bar on my first night arrival. Ended up hanging out at the after party with them and they were so generous as to tell me the best spot to rent a good board and even pointers on the current and such. So the next morning super early excited with excellent swell, I snag the board and a suit, paddled out on the North side with the dawn patrol and had an absolute epic day. This was circa 1999-2000 and although I got a few funny looks on my first few runs, I remember being so relieved that the crowd was cool with me. It was a busy day out. On top of having great waves that mid summer day, it's a memory that I cherish. Hats off to the HB NS dawn crew from early 2000's.

Great to watch an accurate video of my hometown, good work. You earned a subscriber

Ayyyeee my home break!!! Yewww 🤙🏽

I love this series so much

Thanks for the entertaining commentary it really makes the videos fun to watch. Warren Miller would be proud!

Huntington is where I learned to surf. My aunt was one of the first professional female surfers and grew up in Huntington, so she taught me at a fairly young age. There was rarely a day where you couldn't at least show up and find a shoulder to hop on. Whether it be the pier, the cliffs, 17th, Golden West, or the fairly new jetties. One of the most consistent places on the planet IMO.

I love your videos.. thank you for this one!

These are the closest thing to Bruce Brown's old school surf movies/narration (like um..... The Endless Summer) Keep it going! No one does this anymore :( I love the positivity and fun vibe

The Golden Bear was right across the street. I saw Dick Dale and the New Riders of the Purple Sage there. The Surf Theater was a block or two north. It was definitely a surf ghetto and a bit of it still remains.

That’s me at 3:36 getting dropped in on haha

I love the narration, gives me endless summer vibes! I'd like to see how you would explain the scene that is newport beach

Love this spot, a good place to go to on a given day. But I’ve NEVER been out on days like you filmed!
