Classic Z, where did you dig that out? I grew up blocks from that beach.
Since they built the golf course on North Island, it's rarely any good but it has it's moments.

Danny Bussell was the only one who would go out one day when Central beach was breaking several feet bigger
None of his rides approached the length of these
RIP Danny
The military police arrested me out there long ago when I lost my board and it washed up on the wrong side of the fence
After several hours I signed an affidavit promising to never trespass on a Federal Reservation
This was a bit before 911
What would happen now?

Same thing. They arrested my wife, I kept surfing. Fortunately her Dad was a Navy pilot and she got off but our Sentri pass was almost denied years later due to the incident.
In that Video is a young Dann Mann who is a notable firewire shaper and Mike Gillard who was king of the Reef at Cardiff at least 6 or 7 times. There was definitely a solid tube riding tradition in Coronado.

Looks like some more nice south swell is on the way...
Last month has had some good size in the North Orange county area:
56th street...barrels all day:

Continuing the skim theme, but heading further south

Edit
Well I won't be trying it soon
Notice the lack of goofy foot riders?

Biggest? I don't think so.
I was in bigger (and colder, no wetsuit, think it was December, no hard boards or even sponges that day) at the wedge in the early seventies. Started breaking a bit closer to the jetty too.

I read that swells were sometimes measured by how far out the poles on the jetty were broken.

Supposedly,it was so big decades ago that a couple of body surfers were washed over the jetty and into the channel.

I find them to be very complimentary. Not only are they both sports that take over your life and drive passion, but they are both mentally focusing and engaged with nature. Not to mention when your fingers are toast from climbing, surfing is a great workout for larger climbing muscles.
One of the best days I've had is 14 pitches on Tahquitz (whodunnit & the long climb link-up) and a sunset surf sesh in San Diego.
I was originally a surfer though and have recently become addicted to climbing. I even moved into a van to get as much time as I can either surfing or climbing.
If you're interested you can follow on my blog, Dirtbag Beta. I'm hoping it can become more than just a personal blog someday but who knows.

I'll probably see you around lamjus- It looks like we surf some of the same areas.
For me, a dawn patrol at thumping Boca Rio then an afternoon bouldering sesh at Woodson is max synergy.

You can find complimentary aspects in nearly any athletic activity. Some people climb, some surf and a very few do both...neither is even slightly dependent on the other.
