Beef video shows enough of the messy wavescape to appreciate how much water is moving around. Chad Stickney's latest drone. Crowded. Almost an obstacle course of water photogs. Thinking of which, Brent Weldon was a speed bump for three days.

Looks like he is conscious of being a speed bump.

This Stray YouTube video gives a good idea of swimming at one of the most famous of reserved public swimming beaches.

I was right.

Look just to the left of center in the rocks. That's a dude. In the air. High in the air.

If only it were still possible to get images uploaded to 2ndlight to display on the Forum.

Awesome!

Wedge people are gluttons for punishment.

It took a bit of hacking (Flickr is not its normal self), but this was the clearest screenshot I could get, with a bit of editing for contrast. It was a great aerial dismount, on the Beef video at 1:20, more of a horizontal than vertical flight. The guy's a human Gulf sturgeon.

Another screen grab, this one from one of a full day of more or less continuous YouTube videos. It starts at 6:27. Nice physics demonstration. Similar style, but this one's wearing a wetsuit with distinctive multi stripes on one leg.

Another fresh posting at Youtube, part 1 (of 2) of a 1991 Costa Mesa cable TV documentary Fury of the Wedge. By now, it's quaint.
