Insane surfing at Trestles yesterday

Insane surfing at Trestles yesterday
I headed to Lower Trestles yesterday to see what the new south swell had to offer. The conditions were less than great but the talent was insane as usual. These surfers were absolutely ripping!
Thanks for watching! I'm Brad Jacobson and these are my stories.
Music (in order of appearance): Dusty Decks, Don Vayei, Coffee and Cats and Timothy Infinite

Crowded but following da rules! Tons of surfers paddling deep not to disturb the surfers line. Plus shoulder hoppers pulling out! Not everyday Trestles is this courteous, but what a beautiful thing when da rules are followed!

Born and raised in San Clemente, Middles and Cottons were my playground. Had to move out of state up north to have a future and stability, but thank you for posting and capturing this swell! brings back good summer time south swell memories!!

That was fun. Thank you for posting. Love the simple old school single vantage point. No drone shots! 👍

With the music, that was relaxing to watch. Thanks.

Love Jake Marshall's read on waves, draws nice lines. Underrated imo. Plenty ripping go on this day, thanks 👍

Oh man, brings back great memories. Cottons back in the day. Churches, uppers, lowers wherever. All good!

I shot there this past Tuesday, 7ft+ in the morning, I caught Taylor Knox, Caroline Marks and Tanner Gud, so stoked. Great Video.

Amazing footage. I am a kook who fell into surfing last minute with a surf lesson in Waikiki before my flight out from Hawaii. Very much appreciate the vids you have produced. I'm a derm and would love to do a talk on sun protection / skin cancer prevention.
Keep up the amazing footage and content!

Crap, thought i had responded to this. Must've been another vid.
Anyway, surfed there many times WAY BACK WHEN. My dad was navy officer with officer sticker on our cars, so it was ez to drive thru camp pendleton from oceanside, or up coast hiway.
Supereasy breaks even at 6'-8'. Will never 4get. Love the inside outs. I'm goofy foot, didnt bother me one way or the other. And the beach boys were the best surf musicians out there!

I'm 76 now. Boards handed over to my 2 grandsons, 13 and 14. They figured it out easily, having easily picked up boogeyboarding.

Great Job Brad... love the way you shot and edited this

First time I surfed Trestles was 50 years ago this summer. Glad to see it is exactly the same today!

After the first 50 years of my life in California one of the few places I miss other than my home break of HB pier is Lowers and Cottons.... well and when the Ranch was private access only and Blacks and Sunset cliffs and K38's 😅.

@4:12 out the back.... did those two boys end up switching priority sides on the paddle in??? I don't think I've ever seen that before.

Surfing So Cal coast since the 70s . Never really liked lowers. Not enough punch in the wave. Uppers when it's big can throw a punch at you. Great video Brad. Travel south a little farther check out Oside. Good waves and a lot of local talent.🤙👍

Great a crowded mushburger with everyone on it. Bring back the wolfpack

Off topic…There’s going to be a Bruce Brown film from 1958, Slippery When Wet, on Turner Classic Movies tonight at 5:00 PM, PDT. I’ve not seen it….

Lot more surf etiquette at Lowers than at Malibu. Always wondered why?

There was once a tram pulled by an ATV. I remember running from the Marines before Nixon opened it to the public.
