Liftoff at the Wedge

Christian Brown gets launched into low earth orbit at the Wedge. Video by Dingo.

Big wave surfing is practiced around the world at places like Jaws, Nazaré, Mavericks and Waimea Bay but usually during the winter months when powerful storms in the Northern Hemisphere generate massive groundswells that hit northwest-facing coastlines. On the other hand, the Wedge, located in Newport Beach, California, is biggest in the summer months when swells generated deep in the Southern Hemisphere (during their winter) make the long trek north, traveling for a week or longer and crossing the equator before finally breaking. While the Southern Hemi swells are drained of some of their power after the 5,000+ miles from their source near Antarctica, the unique configuration of the Wedge jetty causes a reflection pattern that takes a piece of the first wave's energy and crosses it into the next wave's face, making it often close to twice the size of other SoCal spots on certain summer south swell days. Certain times of the year the beach is also left steep as sand shifts around which produces a backwash effect as waves run up the berm and bounce back out. This clip is a fine example of all the Wedge mechanics coming together to do something unusual and entertaining....
